Pros
Fev tried hard being triple teamed but really needs to keep his mouth shut.
Waitey played really well but found the going tough doing his usual rebound.
My Smurph - kept trying and can't fault his intent [like I would]
Krooz - a great kid that is going to be an absolute gun in years to come.
Cons
No midfield pressure
No forward line set up - they had so many players behind the ball, it was embarrassing that none of players were within cooee of them.
Backline with Saddington and minus Setanta looked bloody tiny and Saddo has clearly played his last game for the Blues.
We seemed to go on the offensive too easily from second qtr onwards. Frustrating to watch and disappointed that we capitulated so easily.
I feel so sorry for Fev, he gets scragged, held and chopped illegally by his opponent every week - (also has about 5 against him).
Countless times the umpires ignored blatant frees, it reflects very poorly upon the umpires.
If the holding that happens to Fev was to happen to David Hale or Matthew Lloyd

they would receive the free every time.
It is petty and unprofessional for the umpires to constantly CHEAT and ignore illegal activity against Fevola because they don't like him. Fevola has every right to go nuts at the umps because they stiff him every week. If the umpires want respect they should earn it by doing their job properly - the way everyone else does.
I feel like getting a comparison tape between what happens with him and other players and send it into geish - but they wouldn't look at it.
Umpires are supposed to regulate the game on an unbiase basis.
