Post Game Postulations: AFL Rd 7: Carlton vs Port Adelaide

He pointed out that Jack Martin put very little pressure on the kicker, allowing an easy kick, when he could pushed alot harder and pushed him over the line. Brown went really hard on Martin as he said that what cost the game in those last seconds, not Gray's kick. He said with proper pressure the kick wouldn't have got to Gray. When I saw it again I couldn't help but agree. With more effort Martin could've really pressured the kicker.
Thought the same thing at the time, but we don't know the circumstances. He may have been shot physically.  It looked pretty warm out there. May have taken it's toll. So many instances that could have impacted those last 40 seconds. The kick down the line from Gibbons. Why did he rush? Why not wait for the hurry up from the umpire? Then the kick. We had Pitto, Levi and H all there but the ball carried over the back to Jonas and that was all she wrote. Even the last desperate punch from the backmen looks like they all missed it and it hit legs out to Mayes for his delivery to Gray. Just a game of centimetres. Gotta stop reviewing that last 2 minutes
