Body:
Massive game for both sides tonight. Coburg are in good form and we need to respond after a bad loss. Should be a ripper.
For anyone travelling this way, the Neon Fields art exhibit is running across the street in Beauty Park. No entry fee and there are food trucks open. Makes for a nice casual walk before the game tonight.
Absolute scenes tonight. I have no words.
WOW!!!! What a game
Frankston win with a Blake O’Leary goal after the siren
it was only 2nd time in Frankston’s VFA/VFL History they have won a game by 1 point (since 1966).
the other was nearly 42 years ago to the day Round 5 1983 vs Dandenong at Shepley Oval,
Can't remember hearing of us ever winning after the siren. Could that be our first?
Have to feel for Coburg. Better team all night but beaten after the siren because of howler of a decision.
Heres the decision from Twitter..

I do feel for Coburg and completely get their frustration given the lack of consistency around HTB decisions, especially after the AFL's revised interpretation last year. That being said, there were multiple howlers throughout the night and I wouldn't say either side was particularly favoured by the umpires yesterday.
In going to have to make time to watch that last quarter. I had no idea that it was a kick after the shown to snatch the victory.
* It's time to restore the VFA name.
