Clark gets the ball with his foot so play on is the correct call.

Hill has prior so holding the ball is correct. Butler's dissent is bad enough that it would've been called even before this years crackdown.
Yep - the replay shows the ball just touches his boot (you can see the ball change direction) and the umpire has the perfect view of it so calls play on.

But of course the Seven commentators are playing off the crowd response and repost it on their social media account for the clicks.

And yes- Hill did have prior and was caught holding the ball.

Two unpopular calls but imho not the outrageous breach of humanity that the Channel 7 mugs would have us believe.

Was at my local footy yesterday arvo.Had a look at the second qtr Richmond v Gold Coast score.The Suns where getting pumped.Then listening in the car heading home late in the 3rd.Suns where making a comeback about 4 goals down.Was totally shocked to hear and then watch the last qtr,way after the game was finished.
Amazing win for Gold Coast.Resigning Stewie during the week.Great to see this footy club off the canvas. They will have massive support from neutral fans if they make the finals.Still remember when Brisbane made there first final series.
 
Brisbane have had a few good seasons.But have fallen short later in thoes seasons ,in the finals.As the injury list mounts.Zorko and Rich are big outs for them today.And also Dan Mcstay,Jarrod Berry,Darcy Gardiner

If the Western Bulldogs had there time over again.They would of rethought there trading of Marcus Adams to Brisbane.With the holes in the Bulldogs defence.

Bris v Ess the leading 8 posessions getters are Easendon players.And Laucie Neil with a heavy tag.3 goals down late in the second..Brizzy need a big second half.

The ball may have brushed Clark's foot (questionable based on that footage) as he dropped it in the tackle (incorrect disposal) but in the spirit of the game for as long as I've been watching it, that's holding the ball.
But it's st kilda so I don't care 🤣
 
Well done to the AFL on another ridiculous and unnecessary guernsey clash in this Brisbane v Essendon game.


This doesn't look too bad, but it's certainly dark and dark. Maybe Essington's reverse strip is even more of a clash with Brizzy's home jumper. Brisbane shouldn't have to change theirs though.

30 seconds into this game "Taylor Walker is a beautiful kick". misses everything.

Follows up with "Taylor Walker is a good news story"

and

"We know the challenges he's had"
 
Jordan Dawson has 4 more years of this shit to look forward to.
