The rest of the tactics from GWS were not a million miles away from what happens every week in every game. Jumper punching happens, putting extra mayo on a tackle/spoil happens, bumping into players as they run past happens. Brayden Maynard made Ablett's life miserable on Friday night in very similar ways to what tha GWS players did to us.

The players and coaches should have expected it - we all did on WOOF, talking about it in detail last week. Finals are for keeps - Saturday was a fantastic lesson for our young group.
Watching on TV doesn't show the real picture of stuff happening behind play or around packs.

The umpires should have stopped it early with free kicks and 50 metre penalties, just like in the Hawks game.

What GWS did was not normal on a footy field. I haven't seen a team apply dirty tactics like that since the 80s.
