Gameday!

How the 50 was not paid when they pay it for FAR less and the holding the ball that they got the free, no way.

That non-50m call was bizarre. It wasn't even the Hawks' first disposal after the whistle was blown. Everyone in the stands knew a free had been paid. Most of the players had stopped. The umpire had his hand in the air. Players regularly get pinged when they get the first possession away when they can't be expected to know whether a free has been paid. Just odd that that one was let pass.

I love Jetta but tonight he looked lethargic even a little lazy - we had some fabulous opportunities but marks didn't stick , over used the ball at times and we didn't man up as well as the Hawks did at times. Still it wasn't a thrashing and we should hv got that 50 late in the game when the hawks player said he didnt hear the whistle - which is crap because I heard it and I was a lot further away from the ump than he was. Still chalk it up to experience. The sad thing is that we finally got a massive crowd at the SCG and we blew it.

Honestly how can anyone say that we cant mix it with the big boys. We lost by 7 points to the (undeserved) flag favourites. And really lets be honest if it wasnt for the 2 blatant umpire errors when the game was on the line in the last qtr then we would have won. This forum is becoming very pessimistic all of a sudden!

Don't know about would have won but I also think probobly would have won, and both of those were disgracfull. How the 50 was not paid when they pay it for FAR less and the holding the ball that they got the free, no way.

Jett's was sub material for the final quarter.
The whole forward line plays out of position so much, find it frustrating.
Bombing it in long not working. Have hit players on the chest leading into space.
Hawks seemed to get pretty lucky with hurried kicks thrown onto the boot landing mm clear in their hands.
Bloody good effort by Sydney though, well done.
If no injuries, a real bonus.

The reason Hawthorn got lucky is that they played in front.
