This! What is up with this!? They yell ball every time it even looks like a tackle. Bizarre!

Only "outdone" by the filth last Monday. And I thought the Saint fans were bad. Collingwood fans took it to a VERY low level. Were calling ball sometimes before the tackle. Watch the replay and you will see what I mean.

    Hahahahaha!!! That was very quick, and very apt. Not sure how many will get it or find the reference, but spot on. Not sure whether to shout you a nice Heathcote Shiraz or a communion wine. 

    Shiraz....,the Shiraz ;)

    This 24 point betting thing is making me a thousandaire. 

    Suns are rubbish. 

    Bolton has given the Blues something. Unfortunately.

    He doesn't duck but he absolutely draws the free - presumably Selwood was his hero growing up 

    While he doesn't 'duck' per se, every time he takes possession he kneels down. It's absurd that he receives multiple free kicks every week for it.  Got two or three against us last year and our guys really got stuck into him for it.

    Its difficult to see in live action as everyone's watching the ball, but clear as day on the replay.

    it's still a free kick.

    bolton is moulding something pretty good at the blues, i think. unfortunately.

    Don't think it is when you intentionally drop to your knees... thought that was one of the rules they've 'tweaked'.

    he doesn't drop his knees; he keeps his centre of gravity low and it's beholden upon the tackler not to clock him above the shoulders - he makes it very hard

    Keeps his upper body straight so it doesn't look like he's ducking, and then literally kneels down.  Sicily does the same 'trick'.

    Nothing at all in the Franklin report

    Nothing much in the bump but the follow up open palm jolt to Rance? that followed looked very Hogan like to me. At least I think I  saw that in the replays.

    his reinvention as a key defender has been a masterstroke

    He's no Jeremy Howe, Bucks what a legend.

    • 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.
