Head clash early in the game if you were watching, they replayed about 14 times.

As for the umpires, yeah they got some "home town calls" (when don't they) but North should have iced it earlier.
Another tough loss by less than a kick, only got ourselves to blame.

North just can't ice them but West Coast did everything they could to kick themselves out of the game. LeCras' up and under one metre out from goal would have been comical if I didn't have the prick in my fantasy side. Not too surprised to see Eagles' fans online looking to other factors besides umpiring for the end result though, I'd be tempted if we were gifted a home town win like that. There was more than just the Selwood decision, the in the back was iffy and that 'touched' ball that denied Black a shot at goal was just flat out wrong. Three fifty fifty's going the Eagles' way in a tight contest is kind of like Daicos' banana goals, happens to often for it to be a fluke LOL.

Is that the one where Kennedy got a down the ground free? Still wondering what the free was for (Did Thomas belt someone before Shuey came in?) as Thomas took a massive dive and then had a snooze on the deck. Did the trainer come up to him and whisper 'Get up Linds...he didn't buy it'.

Head rammed into turf, lucky not to be knocked out. Does have a fairly injury prone body though
