What a play from Hodge.

I hate the rule, but it should have been a free against Hodge for diving at the player's legs.  We had one paid against us on Saturday.  It sucks.

Yes and no, his intention was the ball as opposed to tunnelling the opposition player.

But that free kick isn't meant to be decided on "intention".

The biggest surprise to me on Monday was that the Hawks weren't able to capitalise on some incredibly generous umpiring. This was but one example among many.

Is it like the speccy rule? Take the mark and you can sit on someone's head or knee them in the back, drop it and it's a free.

I think the umpiring went both ways. The 360 tackle and incorrect disposal.

They paid the market price for Heeney last year. 

No, they paid an end of first round pick for the best mid in the draft who would have otherwise gone top two.  Heeney, like Ablett before him, has the distinction of having forced a rule change due to the manner in which he was acquired by his club.

Yes didn't we offer our pick 2 for Heeney thus forcing the Swans to use their first round pick? I believe Roos was well aware of Heeney's ability and was happy to risk the Tracc or Brayshaw for him. Swans got a bargain there and this year the rules have changed and you have to trade in draft points to get academy players or father sons depending on how they are rated in points.

I think the umpire made the correct decision in not calling that a free kick. Hodge didn't take out Greyson's legs. If he had it should've been a free, but it seems he didn't make significant contact.

Reading the afl injury list I saw that Freeman is now listed as indefinite with a hamstring injury that has plagued him for his first two years at Collingwood (might be a different leg to his original injury, not sure). I was pretty keen on him pre-draft with his explosive pace a highlight and was unsure about Salem at the time of drafting him. Suffice to say I'm happy having Salem on our list. Another win for Taylor.

Correct, we bid pick 2 for Heeney and pick 3 for Mills this year

Tigers are a mess.

Cotchin is overrated.

Agreed!

but i think the pies have a good list, just not sure Buckley is a great coach

we should beat both of these sides i would have thought.


Give me Jones anyday of the week over that pretender Cotchin

Who is the worst player captaining an AFL side? 

for mine Cotchin, Murphy and Swallow would be the top 3

Can't wait to play either of these teams,and wasn't the filth rated a top 4 prospect at one stage?

 

Whoever said that must have been on something.

Pendles was pizzed at the ump?  Or a teammate? Should have been annoyed at himself if he was going to be annoyes at anyone.


Ugly ugly game at this point. Every player looks rushed and making poor decisions.

Goal kicking in the AFL is terrible. 

Would be horrible for Grimes to have done his hammy again.

looks like Grimes has done another hammy, poor bloke, good player ravaged by injuries

 

With trac and trenners-- I love

Arguably a better career than his brother.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
