I feel that Greene out would have changed the game.

Not giving a 3 goal headstart probably would have made changed he game as well

I agree - and Pou not kicking into the man on the mark and Owens not mongrel punting it OOTF but they are our issues

The AFL has said it would penalize on Potential to cause Injury - just not in this case. It was not because the Orange Team was playing us - but because they were playing in Canberra and he is Bums on Seats

Interesting to see Butters let off for an identical incident to that of Windhager.

No No No No

Butters had his hands down - so he was reaching for the ball - nothing to see here - oh BTW - Butters is a Brownlow Favourite - Windhager not.

Windhager's arms were down but he was not reaching for the ball - a difference - apparently - that changes the Potential to cause injury.
