Phenomenal. That's even better playing away on the short break after a huge ANZAC Day.
The Cows did everything right from their POV, keeping it very tight and using their height. And yet, our key mids like Jordy and Mitchell rise to the occasion to belt them at the clearances when it mattered - the absolutely only way we were ever going to win that game.
That goal by Johnny Noble and ingenious point from Johnson in the face of a string of farcical umpiring decisions, capped off by the missed free to Johnson in the bloody square, which was visible to an eyeless fish at the bottom of the Mariana Trench.
Astonishing win. Better again I reckon given how perfectly the Cows had played it, and how knackered we must've been.

In the end the rain comes down, washes clean the streets of a blue sky town.

^Oh, and that missed free to Murphy. Appallingly bad umpiring. Beyond comprehension. That and the Johnson over-the-shoulder in the square, and Jordy purposefully not breaking a doctor's neck and being pinged, made a completely mockery and farce of the great game.

I agree.That was some of the worst umpiring I’ve ever seen in my life.And I’ve seen plenty of bad umpiring in my time.pietillidie wrote:^Oh, and that missed free to Murphy. Appallingly bad umpiring.

I am so proud of these boys. Not our day in so many ways. Bad injuries, tired after the 5 day break, sheer bloody cheating umpires (easily the worst bias I have seen in years!). Darcy Moore is LEGENDARY!
Incredible to win against ALL odds and the AFL cheats.
Hope Murph is okay. That should have been a free, but none of the four blind maggots saw a thing - surprise, surprise! Truly AFL your umpiring department is a DISGRACE!!!
