Last night we lost my big brother Jase. I’ve always viewed media me and my private life as very seperate things. I wanted to share this with a wider audience though as my brother Jase has been the biggest influence on my life and I’m very proud to be his brother.

Just saw a player asking, after not knowing what the whistle was for “what’s that for?” Umpire refused to answer him, ignored him and was close to paying a fifty. If it matters the player was a captain of one of the teams. We’ve lost the plot, what an absolute joke.

Oh get fckd. Jeremy Sharp was one of Fremantle’s best (again) and he gets slabbed on the backpage…. 6 mins remaining Fremantle zero chance of winning, his kick at goal didn’t lose them the game, their ball movement for 3 and a half quarters did.
