- The first of their seven goals for the final quarter is “just” a series of little failures.
- Dicker is not in the middle (swapped with Scott) and the setup is one-on-one.
- I know I haven’t mentioned Doonan or Barba; both are just plugging away all day. And Doonan roves forward to snap our second (and final) goal.
- Jacques currently forward; has had a “nothing” debut game with us. Her partner, Tayla Harris, was at this game.
- Scott tries to take on her opponent after a mark for a second time. It fails again, she is lucky not to be pinged, and a goal results.
- Jacques Molan Scott Cornish at the next centre throw-up. Cornish schooled in the ruck, but Scott and Barba (coming off half-back) fight back until Scott goes for another fend-off, and fails.
- Kenny kills Bernardi via (innocent) slam tackle (let’s call it karma for earlier). She is way off her head on the green whistle when she comes off five minutes later. Multiple Bombers wish her good luck.
- Scott is all over the play, even if it’s not all working.
- Strahan was unlucky with the free leading to the next goal, but that doesn’t excuse her limp response, again.
- FCer hands Dicker the ball, prompting her to ask “why do I get the free?”. Turns out the ump paid “insufficient attempt” against Dicker, and neither player agreed with that. Deadset rubbish, ump.
- Doonan gives Molan an “Irish kiss” in the pack.
- Some “interesting” umpiring of tackles in the final minute.
You really don’t see all of the loose players when not at the ground…
