Ridiculous 50, how about say move back 2 metres like every other time someone does that?

Normally they say back a metre and set the mark for a set shot

Umpire just pulled the trigger on 50

Interesting

Huge over reaction by the umpire. Taberner was moving when he marked it and he expects Crouch to know exactly where to stand.

Ben Long - as great as his aggression is, his skills are not up to it....you rarely see a clean pick up from him, always juggles it.

Long’s bump

That’s what he brings to the team?!

He’s had 2 touches

Couldn’t give a f*** about whether he can dish out a simple bump

How about getting his hands on the footy?!

Seb Ross has had a solid 5 posessions. I'm not necessarily anti-Ross but has he checked out perhaps?

Marshall is doing a power of work around the ground but we are closer to breaking even in centre clearances with Hunter, it seems.

Let's hope we play the 2nd half as good as the 1st and don't fade out.

Let's just hope he doesn't run into a mysterious dark haired woman on the plane back to Melbourne tonight. :)
