As much as Jack Grimes cost us the chance to get back in front, we were ALREADY behind when he stuffed up....courtesy of Nathan Jones

Why would you ever play on with half the opposition team around you when your teammate has won you a free kick in the final two minutes of the game?

I propse an Umpire review panel, I'm not blaming them for our loss mind you, we have dumb enough players to manage that on their own, but I'm fed up to the gills with poor umpiring, this year has been just out of this world in terms of how far backwards its gone. Players are held up to incredibly high scrutiny, umpires shouldn't be exempt. They should have a points system for blatent errors and suspesions for those that have too many points as well as carry over points. Make the maggots accountable!

All teams will say umps cost them or were against them, we see things from our teams perspective.

We lost the game, not the umps, not port.

Jones, stupid, stupid, stupid.

Dawes, stupid kick.

Grimes, dear god your kicking is woeful.

You owe us one Chris Dawes, stupid kick to no one, cost us the game. Grimes's kick wasn't typical Grimes

Not just to no one, back into the middle of the ground. Against Port Adelaide of all teams.

We had our typical 15-20 minute patch of low intensity where we leaked goals. We played excellent clean balanced football to get back into it and then over thought the game and gave them every opportunity to finish us off. That loss hurts because the way we finished with poor decisions and execution by senior players is so predictable its not funny. Great to see Tyson back in form and Jetta have another great game but that was the extent of it for me.

yep that Watts free in the 3rd was a shocker

Holding the ball was paid for some and not others - seemed to even up in the 2nd half though (cost a goal or 2 but hell it don't matter now does it umpire)

We're a better team but skills and decision making are lacking - coughed up the ball to easily and butchered scoring shots - there is hope we can keep improving there

That Dawes kick is forgivable as he put it to space for someone to run on to.... Grimes and Jones''s error were not forgivable

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
