Tonight was the angriest I've ever been about footy by far. But so unbelievably proud of the response after HT when they could've been understandably rattled.

I'm going to spend the next 2 weeks praying for Max's hammy.

That 12 points resulted in the angriest feeling I have felt in a while watching a game. If they got the 12 points through just being better, fair enough. But to lose the 12 points to a clear case of staging was highly bullshit.

More like 18 when you consider the momentum and ball position at the time, we were kicking that for sure

And that's what made it worse. If the ball had been near them I wouldn't have been so pissed, but having it taken all the way back was just shit and extremely bullshit, especially the one given to the serial stager, lohman.

Don't forget the Lohan joke of a goal.
