There is a rule specifically prohibiting staging for a free kick.  Surely the MRP have the authority to review that decision and suspend him for that?  It was quite literally a dive. 

Yyaaaa like that will happen, even though the commentators all called it as a dive... I hark back to G a few a years ago, the Viney tackle on him the G fwd pocket.. Viney smashed him, he staged for a free, didn't get one then peaked out from under his hands the ball spill in his direction and miracle of miracles up he pops to kick one of the goals of the year.

At least two of his goals have been from weak free kicks in front of goal. 

Ok then ET

To be honest, I never even notice the umpiring.  It's so f/ed up that it's not worth worrying about.  In an odd way, it kinda evens itself out. 

It used to do my head in and now I don't care.

I hope that one day I can let go and not care about the umpiring.

It comes with age.

Or it doesn't.

Adelaide and Sydney grinding themselves down is far better than having Adelaide blow Geelong away, for a Richmond fan imo.

No....  he is not that detailed in his thought process.

Sydney you could argue were red hot favourites coming into finals.

They are currently getting flogged by Geelong

Richmond flogged Geelong last week

Therefore....

Cant believe how politically correct football has become.Punching a ball into the crowd and you give away 50metres.Afl is  overgoverned by [censored] umpires.

Blame the lefties, someone, somewhere may have been offended by the punch.

Wow 7 goals.  Who would have seen this coming especially a week ago. 

Just a shame they didn't do it a week ago and beat Richmond. 

Because tonights lousy Geelong MCG picnic atmosphere has been something you'd want in a prelim against GWS/WCE ?

How is Rohan on an AFL list let alone getting a game? Ginger on fire.

Currently has a 1.4 goal avg this year,  perhaps that? doesnt seem to do much else though. Goes missing a lot. Has a random game every now and then where he runs rampant.

4 goals to 3/4 time.....unbelievable really, and cats down a backman.....I cant figure out Geelong...but i REALLY cant figure out Sydney!

Much like us, if you put enough pressure on the midfielders they fall apart.  You'd almost think we have the same game plan or something.

It's not about political correctness, its about wasting time. If there was 10 seconds to go in a game, you'd probably want the ball in your players hand to deliver it inside 50 rather than having to wait for fans to dig it out from under their seats.

I gave the cats a chance tonight but never ever thought they would get out to this margin. 

Thankgod the swans played badly tonight and not last week. 

But I do admire the way geelong have responded. They were humiliated last week and they have come out tongiht to prove  apoint. 

Next week Danger going back to the adelaide in a prelim against his old team for a spot in the big one. That should add something to it.

    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

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
