I think we were expecting more goals from our small forwards, and it's just not eventuated.
But it's tough given the way the game is being umpired, you can hang onto the footy forever, and then basically drop it unpenalized. It leaves our small tackling runners buried in traffic with next to no hope of breaking away.

Didn't he prosecute the case for the AFL last week?

Tayla Harris gave Emma Kearney a late bump or shove in the back and had a free kick paid against her and fair enough. Two North players then charged Harris and knocked her to the ground. Why wasn't the free kick reversed?

Tayla "Big Bad Barry Hall" Harris!
Personally, I realise I mustn't condone this, but perhaps the best way for Tayla to end this is to do a Barry Hall or a Chris Yarran, and the moment we can't make the finals drop someone who is crossing the line and wear the penalty. If you can't get justice on the field, long term you will at least make opponents hesitant to poke the bear. She shouldn't snap in that manner, but they shouldn't be deliberately provoking that sort of response either!

Harking back to EB’s comments about the look of the game, incidents like this should stamped on. It’s not a good look when an unsuspecting player is knocked to the ground during a break in play. In my opinion, it’s much worse than a legal tackle that was sensationalised by a commentator.
