Crows are doing well to be 20 points up with some key players out of the side.  It means two things:  one is that the Crows are still a very good side, and the Bombers are an average one.  We can all be happy with the second part.

    I can't see any contact to the head: I've seen all the replays. The commentators are either blind or just flucking morons, probably both.

    Bruce has already found him guilty..."probably won't being playing next week".

    I think your second suggestion is correct.

    Most matches at Etihad sees the home team getting these Brownie.  Nothing in the AFL happens accidentally any more and hasn't for a decade or more now.  The whole thing is very carefully massaged.  We should consider moving there as our home ground just for that advantage.  Without the influence of umpiring decisions the Bombers were pretty much down and out in the early part of the last.

    That free against sloane was an absolute disgrace.

    It wasn't even under him.  How about the contest up forward both players tugging the jumper, both watching the ball....free kick to the Bombers put them in front.  AFL is a serious joke to watch now.

    Will Bruce Mac please either resign or be sacked, his is well and truly past it. Cringeworthy calling

    Is anyone watching this?  Bombers are average, it’s hysteria that gets them early season wins.  That’s why I selected them in my Footytips. They will not finish in the top 4 like my Bomber mates and HS columnists reckon. 

    Their young players aren’t as good as ours.

    how about the tackle in the middle.....called holding the ball by Razor then allows an over rule from a junior ump for an unsafe tackle (when it clearly wasn't).  Reverses decision back to Essendrug ???

    Yep. Actually starting to think its a bit fixed. Frees for and against at crucial times crucial places etc.

    Carlton last night getting 50s at will to keep them in it.

    Maybe i just need a tinfoil hat.

    Love of the dees is the only thing keeping me watching though, esp combined with "match day experience" crap. The match day experience is far superior at country footy

    I am losing interest by the week bigges.  I just laugh at the way the game is umpired both on TV covered matches and live now.  I'm at the point where I just can't take it seriously.  Soul destroying and cringeworthy as well as being very predictable as to which teams are being favoured most of the time and where.

    Speaking of the cricket we are 3 for 79 chasing 311...Smith out for 5 Warner 30.

    Bombers deserved that win. They ran harder and the Crows mids were wearing concrete boots in that last quarter.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
