Overview
- The defender conceded a 50-metre penalty for slinging debutant Milan Murdock after a holding-the-ball call, gifting West Coast a goal in Gold Coast’s round-one victory.
- West Coast coach Andrew McQualter said his team were blown out of the park early and failed to get the game on their terms in the first 45 minutes.
- Damien Hardwick said he was disappointed and will speak to Andrew, stressing he supports him and expects him to grow out of such lapses.
- The coach described the Suns’ second half as below average after a 62-point half-time lead stalled.
- Bailey Humphrey is likely to return next Saturday, and PerthNow reports Charlie Ballard is a chance to be available, which could affect Andrew’s role.
