It was a clear 50 to me not sure what he was thinking.

To honest I had no idea what it was for until I saw the third angle on the replay.

Open your third eye people.
(We really let a good chance slip here to set up our percentage for the year)
I think the Jacko free kick was a down field from something that happened in our forward line, rather than holding the ball...........although the confusion enabled Nick Riewoldt to show his true anti-Bulldogs colours with his insistance that a player who isn't effectively tackled relinquishes prior opportunity if he avoids an ineffective tackle........
The English free kick was definitely there, given he worked his man under the ball but didn't make a realistic attempt to mark the thing. Seriously indicative of our attitude in the third quarter, not doing the basic thing of slamming it over the line with a defencive punch.

Just as bad as the 50 in the VFL when our player (can't remember who), went for the spoil and his arm was over the shoulder of the GC player and the ump gave them 50. Absolute stupidity.
As for Crozier's, was soft as butter and very harsh. It is a contact sport, and the players are not robots that they can stop on the spot. He was trying to avoid crashing in and barely touched the GC player. The GC player should have been done for faking.
The umps have lost the plot and are being too technical.

A free was paid against Josh Bruce... must’ve been for a holding or high contact when he was trying to make a lead. Didn’t see the incident, but did see the non-officiating umpire talking to Bruce and pointing up the field to where Macrae was.

On the replay I heard the words downfield via an official's mic.

Yeah he can softly spoken word me the entire 2016 Western Bulldigs finals series.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

The flashing lights are troublesome for people with epilepsy.

At least that was a problem that was solvable. Apart from noise cancelling earphones the noise level is too much. But who wants to wear headphones for 3.5 hours?
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Was a very good Parma KT31. I have been also to the Steam Packet Hotel as well in Willy. Being a Dogs supporter growing up in the east it is great now to be discovering much more of the west.

I wouldn’t worry about it. Crowds are down for every team in the state at the moment. I don’t think we even drew this low in 2018.
