He also had one of the best inside fifties - a bullet to the opposite forward pocket, where Dickson and another one of our forwards squabbled for the ball in the air and mucked it up. Should have been a goal.

Given the mark paid down the other end to Watts it was a mark to Dickson that was not paid. That and a couple to Boyd near the end of the second! Great consistency, paying the only one closest to goal too!!!!

It wasn't a bad option, but he also had an option of Tom Boyd 40m straight in front with a big gap on his defender. I guess if Dicko is paid the mark I'd be a softer judge, but I thought Tom Boyd was the better option, easier option if he lowered his eyes a bit.

He was paid a mark! Held it for about 0.5 seconds. Umps were terrible (both ways) yesterday

Yep, held it less than Dicko.

Re: Libba
Agree on that mark to Watts. Unbelievable when I saw the replay. The certainly had the rub of the green all match.

Re: Libba
In regards to Libba's form. I heard Jordan Lewis say the following on Afl360
Melbourne midfielder Jordan Lewis was full of praise for Liberatore but explained that all players have to battle through form issues.
“When you’re a quality player like that, you get a little bit more attention and the game’s probably a bit harder,” Lewis said.
“He’s the best player that I’ve played on around a stoppage, he has what they call fast feet, he goes from here to here to here to here and then he’s gone before you know it.
“No doubt he’ll work out a way to get through this form slump as players do and he’ll be a great asset come the back end of the season.”

Re: Libba
I've heard a couple of troubling things from unrelated sources about Libba of late.
Hopefully untrue and he's fully focused on getting the best out of himself over the coming months. The 2016 flag might've been a bit of a double edged sword for him.. Fingers and toes crossed!

Are they related to his issues whilst recovering from his ACL?
I hope they're untrue as well but it also wouldn't surprise me.

Re: Libba
All I know is I was at the GWS game sitting with the media and he ran off the bench and I must say his backside looked a lot larger than i had seen before .. Was it the shorts, did he have them on backwards , I don't know but his body shape wasn't the same as last year.

Heard a few thing myself and was hoping it was just rumour mongering.

It as Liam Picken with his shorts on backwards I think.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
