Murphy is still getting plenty of touches which is good, but his scoring is way down which is frustrating

The roar when he spoiled the ball and then followed up to win it was crazy. With his last nime he was born to play for Carlton. We had contributors across the board today and that was huge in being able to get the win.

Potentially unpopular opinion, but I think the response to Rohan's fall was pretty poor. He was CLEARLY in a bad way, and for play to continue and absolutely no one who was right there to go to him, I think sucks. I know it's not tiddlywinks, and that there are medical staff there, but Jesus.

Any rugby followers out there? One of my proudest moments as a kiwi was Tana Umaga putting Colin Charvis in the recovery position after he'd just been smoked by Jerry Collins. At the end of the day, it's sport, and if someone gets poleaxed that badly, the game doesn't matter that much. FFS.

When that happens I guarantee there will be teams who tell players to fake a head/spinal injury to stop play for strategic reasons

So what? How often does a fall like that happen? I'd much rather that happen than ignore the dude not moving on the ground. It's one play in a ~2 hour long game. If that swings the result, then either team deserved to win it. Sure, I don't want to see it turn into premier league where people dive left right and centre to earn a penalty, so maybe let play continue, but if I was buddy, flower playing on, I'm helping my mate.
