It might have been a goal before the ump got involved. Frew has intelligent feet!
She lost the battle (conceding the original mark) but geez she ran hard to win the war!
Thirty seconds later:
A spoil and a rebound later, this:
Was an ugly kick… but a marvellous catch, that.
I usually blithely ignore the opposition, but today was odd in that the ONLY quarter without a shot at goal after the siren was the notorious second… and when it’s a draw the below hurts.
FIRST INSTINCT, Courtney…

They didn’t pay the first tackle free, but did the second.
Frew was greedy as, demanding the ball, and 100% correct to do so. Swings around the back of the player with the ball, and BANG.
FREAK.
I give ol’ unco Nalder a bit of crap here, but when she has to work hard she does. Look at her motor forward to provide a target (ignored, unfortunately) after she makes the rebound.
Bugger.
Publish the damn rules!

Thanks, wind.
Not hurt enough for the free, or (probably) a two match suspension.
Technically correct, and utterly against the spirit of the game. Watch Nalder getting out of the Saints’ way.
Start of this is probably technically correct, but a totally different opinion on the rule.
Frew was not trying to lead her opponent through the mark, just to get another hand-off.
OK, my vision was bad from the far end. That’s a bad miss. Only centimetres from winning us the game, though…
Buchan was ■■■■■■■ everywhere late. Dangerous name for a commentator.
PTSD flashback for CBomb vs the Saints.
LOL, that fifty was moral bullshit too.
Commentary is right about us standing around like stunned mullets, even if it didn’t matter in the end.
