I reckon the North bloke threw his head back and played for a free kick, Cyril barely got him.  Deserved to be pinged for holding the ball.

That's exactly how I saw it. His head was on he way back before any contact...Great decision. PS : Firrito the biggest filthy animal in the game today.

Why is it that I just want Nth to lose tonight. I mean Nth are a club that has been nearly forced to move to the GC, battled hard I like there president but I just find it funny they have now lost to the top few teams. Maybe it's there coach who seems to complain all the time. 

But they have no right to complain. They missed so many shot and some of them were easy and they just gave away undisciplined frees. 

Yes Lindsay Thomas. Although I must admit he was entitled to a free kick that looked high but he won't get it because of his previous staging. there was also a play where he didnt want to go in hard and wanted the easy handpass and the hawks ended up clearing it. 

But this is why nth arent getting spoken about as a premiership contender because they have lost to a few of these top teams.

I've tipped Hawthorn, so that's the only reason I'll go for them. Hate both these teams though. And score that my hotel room has FOX FOOTY, as there's no coverage on Channel 7 up in Sydney. Hopeless.

Would've been on 7mate

I'm with you. And as for Lindsay Thomas? Personification of the boy who cried wolf, absolutely no sympathy.

And it was just oh-so-delicious to see them lose the game directly due to some North [censored] staging for a high tackle. Brilliant stuff.

Kharma is a b.tch.

Brad Scott complaining about the terrible standard of umpiring.

Sicily modeling his game on Ducker Thomas.

Hawks just continue getting away with it.

Cyril's throws,blocking the man standing on the mark,creeping over the mark,plays on all favour Hawks.

Take away their skill at cheating and blowing the umps and they are nothing special.

Clarkson and Mitchell have piggish faces on their short stupid bodies.They speak through their noses and have bogan monotones.

Strike them down with thunder , Thor, and end them.

I hate  Smiley Mitchell more than  No mates Harvey

I think I just hate short ,skillful footballers who need a punch in the head.

I want these guys targeted with EXTREME PREJUDICE.

Sicily is my newest object of hatred-I am the boot of Italy and he is the Shyte on the end.

I think I just woke up hating short men-they are nearly all detestable.

Put them in a Hawks/North jumper and it compounds.

Sicily ducks as much as Thomas,.

Yes....and they have the head throwback king Puopolo as well plus the new ducking apprentice in Stewart.  Clarkson insists other clubs have a greater inventory of cheats than Hawthorn but the maths isn't working out for me.....

I recently had to cancel my foxtel play. The commentary/ sound was about 10 seconds behind the action.

Now I am stuck with Bruce on 7 where his commentary is 10 seconds ahead of the play.

Brad Scott says umpires told North Melbourne players Lindsay Thomas won’t be awarded high frees because ‘he’s a ducker’

Ha.

I had some trouble trying to decide who to barrack for last night. Until I remembered who was North's coach.

Ha.

Its hard to imagine an umpire actually saying that.  More likely: Lindsay won't get a free kick because he ducked (...meaning in this instance).

Scott said they won't lodge a complaint!  If he has a legitimate case then take it to the AFL...don't just bleat on TV about it, stirring up a frenzy and more headlines!!

Didn't hear Brad Scott criticise the umpiring when they got a great run from them against us in Tassie

That's because he was rolling in mud and drinking swill after the win.

When he loses he tends to squeal, grunt and oink a bit.

Surely the relentlessly consistent AFL will fine him for his outburst.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
