Round 6 Non MFC games

Just thought I would get in early on the big one tomorrow night.

That's right Carlton on the national prime time stage playing the Dogs.. (at least the Bulldogs deserve the spot.)

Bulldogs by 65... Tom Boyd to have a rare great game with appropriate commentary from Bruce.

 

At least Carlton get the honour to crap on prime time and not us. 

 

A Friday night thriller.

they were discussing that on SEN today. The suggestion by KB and co was that Clarkson had pressured the umps into rewarding the tackler. Has gone way too far in their mind and watching tonight they are so right

 No there is a pattern at least in our recent games, if we have the ascendancy, the umps will not pay anything regarding holding the ball, dragging it in or incorrect disposal and repeatedly ball up to add to the congestion. 

Then next quarter when the momentum turns against us, any attempts by us to hold up the ball will be called and a free kick given in the intetests of openning up the game. It’s quite simple really.

And our wonderful forward thinking AFL has made sure there are two coaches on their new super panel, and NO FANS! Way to look after the game.

Except that's not what happens. Good tackles and defense are rarely awarded. Holding the ball is often paid to break up play and congestion, and punishes players for simply grabbing the ball out of the air and getting immediately tackled.

Carlton must pay the AFL under the table to get Friday night games.

What a bloody appalling game of footy 

But it's stress free!

Those 2 50 mt penalties covered about 70 meters. Umpires can't count.

Yes and no, sometimes they give a free with zero prior, sometimes they don’t. Sometimes they pay incorrect disposal and often they don’t. It just confused players and fans. 

Curnow, oh my! The Weid would not have missed from there...

Docklands stadium turf looks terrible, here is hoping for no foot injuries on Sunday.

Bolton on the bench looks like a kid on his first day of primary school waiting for the bus with the big kids.


Oh how the dees have destroyed my faith in them. Why do I firmly believe that Carlton’s first win for the season will be us in our typical don’t show up game. 

 

The standard of footy has been really poor this season across the entire league.

Agreed. An all round crap season thus far.

My friends and I who all barrack for different teams have a footy chat group going. It’s been going for a good 4 years now. And gees everyone is disappointed in this season so far, even those who support teams that are doing relatively well. It’s like tumbleweeds in the chat and tumbleweeds on game day. Total snooze fest.

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • PREGAME: Collingwood

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
