These refs are inventing penalties 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

I thought they could reverse the call via replay, they did it at the Texans - Chiefs game (check replay for a potential penalty).

    I guess they are not that different to our AFL umpires. Aren't they told to only call what they can see?

    Horrible call by the Ref. 

    Another rule they need to change, or at worse be able to challenge.

    Didn't they review a flag during the Texans - Chiefs game? At least I remember Aikman and the other commentator mention it.

    Some calls the replay centre can call down, facemask isn't one of them it seems

    The scoring has been great but both defenses bog average

    The difference being the 3 turnovers in Washington's favour

    neither of these teams can win a SB. they will have to rely on their defence at some point to win and as we have seen both very porous.

    i don;t know the rules but i assume you can only really challenge completions, where ball grounded etc. i can;t remember seeing a referee decision overturned.

    Not a challenge but a calle from upstairs, officials review.

    Cost them a TD after gifting Washington a first & goal

    Shocking error!

    That might be the game

    the lions sideline was trying to call a player off the filed. just call a timeout. not good management

    lol, interception with Williams throwing into a 1 on 1 favouring the defender. 
     

    This game is done if Washington can take a few mins off the clock and not turn it over.

    Ben Johnson getting a little too smart… Trick play at that stage of the game, really ?

    It's all coming apart for the Lions

    A 15 & 2 season looking like it's down the drain after committing 5 costly errors vs Washinton's zero errors

    Daniels has the makings of a very good player. great temperament for a rookie

    So different to the Chiefs, bad offence but I think they are on a 8 game streak with zero turnovers.

    The Washington defence has been much better in the 2nd half 

    They were 5th in yards allowed in the regular season ... we sometimes see a team that gets 🔥 in the playoffs and it might be the Commanders

    5 errors is 5 too many for a no.1 seed.  No excuses, none

    I didn't mind the trick play because that defines who the Lions are

    But to allow the opposition 45 points on your home field is diabolical.  Their defense was their achilles-heel going into the playoffs ... and it has played out that way

    Offense commits the errors placing extra pressure on a dodgy defence

    It's not quite over but the fat lady is warming up

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
