The radio broadcaster and TV host has been complaining all year about umpires not penalising players for disposing of the ball incorrectly — and his blood was boiling after the worst example yet.

Melbourne’s Jake Melksham wouldn’t look out of place at the Olympics with a javelin in hand, so good was his blatant throw during last night’s thrilling 12.7 (79) to 11.8 (74) win over GWS.

Finding the footy after Max Gawn’s tap-down from a boundary throw in during the first quarter, Melksham ran into a Giants player and as he tumbled backwards, tried to get rid of the Sherrin before hitting the deck.

Rather than rely on traditional methods — you know, a handball or kick — the 29-year-old simply hurled the ball out the back with his right hand.

Melksham should have been pinged for incorrect disposal but the officials missed his throw and it was play-on.
