Round 20 Non-Essington Games

I swear to god it’s the dozen or so new footy they use for a game. Pretty sure it used to be one ball per half, or maybe quarter on a wet day.

The new balls take a bit of a kicking to straighten up.

Pretty sure Tyson Edwards had about 40 touches that day in his 300th

Was also the only game in which Andrew Lovett got to 30 disposals.

Someone got pushed as he kicked to a target, and the ball slewed off the side of his boot and straight over the umpire’s hat.

And they weren’t just scraping in, they were splitting the middle. You’d need a protractor and a theodolite to workout that they were missing each post by 3.5 yards (or whatever the metric equivalent is).

2010 grand final?

Not the quite same. I really don’t like the saints. I wasn’t sure he I was going to Barack for at that game until the ump bounced the ball and then common sense kicked in and I realised I couldn’t stomach the pies winning it. In the end I thought the draw was awesome. I only watched the last quarter yesterday but boy I wanted the saints to get up

Dwayne, sniffing the paint.

Dwayne said not been rested. A mountain out of a molehill.
