    The ball even deflects a lot after he punches it. No doubts that he got some of the ball, just a matter of whether it was before or after getting Kamau and whether the ref didn't give it because of the "offside" and then never had a chance to go back to it after the wrong offside call was made.


    But, screw Victory so well done Duncan.

    I couldn't believe Andy Harper was watching the same footage as me. The ball clearly changes direction twice, one after hitting Kamau then again after Duncan punches it.

    Still a borderline challenge imo and worthy of discussion, but the continual comments that he didn't get any ball had me confused.

    More generally I thought first half we were pretty poor aside from 2 or 3 nice moves towards the end.
    Jurman was back to his old self in the first half, multiple bad turnovers and still lacking a right foot.
    I didn't notice him at all in the second half which is an improvement. AP must have told him to give up on playing the ball out and just give it to Jenko.

    Second half I thought we were pretty good, enjoyed watching. A few nice attacks just missing the final ball.

    Jenkinson looks like a different player at CB, he has been good since moving there. Thought he was a liability at fullback. Only downside is he has a good cross on him which doesn't get much use from the centre, but he managed to still get to the byline for one

    If we can keep up some form, I'd be excited to see what we can do in the finals.
