Mitchell day was yellow carded and reported for throwing the first punch which started the fight, that's what the free kick was for! douttas no doubt got a rev up to be physical and possibly square up for last year but what a stupid thing to do right in front of the umpire. Kick a goal in the first minute of the game against the reigning premiers should of given them a massive confidence boost and momentum but they decide to start swinging punches and give away a stupid free kick as well as being a rotation down for the quarter.Hey Foss & CMC, yeah watched that fight after the first goal. Not sure anyone was hurt though and more a follow on from last seasons match. Wallis would have revved his guys up before the game to show some early physicality I reckon.
The umpire must of seen something as there was a free kick given to Keilor (in the centre of the ground) after the scuffle. Not sure how he picked out a free with both clubs heavily involved.
Question- With the videos on each game will a league offical review each game? If so, are Umpires less likely to report but report players using the video system!
BYW- it's gone a bit quite on here lately. What's happening? I'm trying to reduce my input on BF and now that Craigieburn appear to be struggling not many of them have moved over to the premier forum.
Cheers..
Was a good game overall I think it was probably Keilors forward height and fitness that won it for them in the end, douttas look a very imposing big bodied team but fitness seemed to be an issue whether it was mismanagement of the bench and forward rotations or to much time doing weights and not enough cardio in pre season I'm not sure but the seemed to have a lot a players cramping (as early as 3rd quarter) and struggling to run the game out
If they can get that right they could be the team to beat this year
Pretty good effort from keilor and mick to start the year with an away win over one of the flag favorites with a youngish team that included 5-6 from last years reserves flag
