Pavlich giving Chip a bath early!

Shocking miss there from Mayne though.

 

Worst umpiring call ever!


The umpires are out of control.

Usual umpire Hawthorn bias helps the Hawks to the lead.

Fyfe clearly not right. Ross should play him deep forward to try and get some value out of him.

I actually think his brain isn't fast enough

That and even his short kicks have a touch of up and under about them.

Umpires 2

Dockers 2

Hawks 2

That first reversal by the ump was disgraceful and changed the momentum.

Just wrong

Yes it did but Hawks played the better footy in the last 8 minutes. What's done is done, Freo need to get over it pretty quickly otherwise the game could be out of reach by half time.

Mayne would be one of the most overrated players in the league IMO.

Lyon destroying Freo with a total misunderstanding of how to play Hawthorn.

He's pushing players back deep into defence and allowing them to control the ball further up the ground. They are chipping it around with no pressure then finding the gaps to move forward & score.

This guy was rated the best coach in the AFL by many, he's an amateur tonight.

You don't play Hawthorn this way, you must, must, must put pressure on the ball carrier.

Unfortunately it was obvious from the first few minutes that Freo, even though hitting the scoreboard were playing it this way, not enough pressure on the ball carrier and it's now come back and bitten them on the a....

Unless they change the plan it's game over.

Come on Rossy, show us why you get the accolades and why you are on the big bucks...

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
