You can take any moment in slow mo and spin it to suit your argument.

Except this time. That's a free to Morris, 8 days a week. Straight up howler.

This is a good old fashioned example of an umpire needing to be dropped for a long while. There are bad calls, and then this in its own category. And with 4 umpires this was paid. 1 paid it and three went along with it. Ergo, four umpires is a waste of time, effort and money.

I'm not a twitter person but does the chief of umpires have an account, someone could tweet him this photo and caption Morris gave away the free kick?
Four umpires work really well.

I think it is Luke Ball filling in.

Just had another look at the final passage of play that led to JJ's match winning goal on the last kick of the game.

Ok, it has been noted that Smith applied a crunching tackle, forcing the defender to spill it loose.
Wallis then got the loose ball and handballed to Caleb Daniel.
What needs to be noted is the manoeuvre Daniel pulls when he gets the ball to make space for himself.

It was the old fashioned blind turn. Perfectly executed.

Take a look if you don't believe me.

It was a blind turn. And he kicks it with a bent leg so the kick went over the top of the Melbourne player and then dropped into Bont's hands. The boy has footy smarts.

Notice it was a drop punt around the corner too. Love seeing a player execute that skill over the snap. It's so much more reliable.

He's a gem. He could be the best player in his draft year.

Certainly easier to mark in the hands

I heard Suckers in a radio interview say that even though Caleb is small in stature he has big hands. Great for handling the ball. You know what the say about guys with big hands.....big gloves.
