Rnd 9 - Central v Port @ Playford Alive (Sat 6/6)

[Booney]

Any Power fans wearing Centrals scarves? Would make as much sense as those doing similar at the Dogs v Crows reserves game.

No, but there was one Cleveland Cavs singlet on display. I made sure he knew his colours weren't welcome at the game.

I'm sure Booney will demand further proof of these outlandish accusations re Ports runner.

Nup. Eugene spent plenty of time out there, even ran the half back line for a while...!

Pretty sure it's up to the umpires to do something about it though.

Doesn't look good.
It actually looks like Butcher didn't like being tackled, or held in the tackle, and then the Bulldog pushed back - resulting in the free.
Handbags, from two players trying to make a show of strength, might have cost us the game.

I'm a fan of Retzy, but I wonder how hard he was actually hit by Butcher prior to that. Looked like he was playing for a free.

It was a bit of by-play that neither player needed to be involved in, but....it was late, the game was tight and both players were not letting go. The free came when more players got involved and tried to break it up.

When's our next game against the Cavs?

I always wondered why so many people volunteered to be fashion police at SANFL games. Now I see why! It's very rewarding work. Although it was quite the task keeping up with expiation notices out there though...

The period of play between the 6:40 and 7:20 marks...how close was this to the end of the game?

Pretty much cost them the game.

If no free kick was awarded it would have been Centrals by five points with about 2 minutes to go.

Instead it goes down for Summo to goal and put us 7 points clear, another behind making it the 8 point margin.

Was pretty silly, of all the blokes to pick on, old Butch. The crowd certainly gave the boys a nice send off. Anyway, I hope the locals enjoyed their day out.

Cheers. The swing of the leg by the centrals bloke on the ground wasn't a great look either.

I would have thought it was up to the (alleged) perpetrator not to be doing the wrong thing in the first place, but I'm pretty naive that way.
