That looked like a textbook in-the-back free kick. Mooney fell into his back - they have to pay that every time.

The free was there, no question.

There were definately opportunities in the last minute for Geelong to turn it around, but they seemed to have given up on it.

I think I am going to support Freo these finals. I love all kinds of dogs: hotdogs, puppy dogs, corn dogs but especially under dogs.

I found this video on push in back rule funny:

But not Bulldogs?

That makes sense.

Poor display of umpiring all night and I think the soft free's went St Kilda's way.

The free count was even for the night, whilst the last one was very marginal similar tackles were let go earlier, another case of the ump wanting to be in the spotlight

I can't comment on the whole game as the TV was on in the backround, but I do recall seeing a very soft 'over the shoulder' free kick given to Geelong in the first quarter about 25m out giving an easy goal.

3rd Sun finally announced. Michael Rischitelli.

No surprise there. Big, big coup for the Suns. Most likely to win Lions B&F this year.

:(

Rischitelli was my 2nd favourite Brisbane Lion. He finally lived up to his potential this year and is now leaving. Although hopefully his vacancy in the midfield can open up an opportunity for a youngster to step in.

G'day ,
I watched a replay of the 1983 qualifying final early this morn . Hawthorn v's Fitzroy .

1 thing that amazed me & 1 thing i always remembered .

1st thing , Fitzroy made their 1st interchange @ the 18th minute of the 2nd quarter , the Hawks 22nd minute of second quarter .

The thing i remembered , THE GAME WAS A LOT FASTER THAN IT IS NOW , no Rugby type scrums ,free kick was given the ball was given straight to the player "who kicked it straight away" no holding the ball for 25seconds .thinking where 2 kick it .
no 34 players in 1/4 of the ground .
It was a more Free-flowing game

DAMN I miss the good old footy days
