Possibly a little bit consequential - Heidelberg United 2 South Melbourne 1

Good first 20 minutes or so. Cue in the rack for the hour after that. Then everyone tuned into the Matildas' match, and a few idiots like me stuck around for the final 15 or so minutes that overlapped with the World Cup match, watching us cop what we deserved. Which is fine, nothing much was riding on this match, regardless of people still trying to sell the minor premiership as something substantial. But Marco Jankovic's straight red card was pretty dumb. Here's hoping he only misses the one game.

Next game
Saturday afternoon away at North Geelong. Hoping for no injuries and no stupidity. North Geelong still have an outside chance (assuming there is no national second division next year) of surviving relegation.

Final thought
Some bloke sent me a private message on Twitter asking me what I thought the odds were for the game. So that's apparently still a thing.
