Agree that this is grossly overused.

Some of these ???touched endlessly looking at the fingers and so often inconclusive.

In which case, use umpires call and stick with the on field decision. If there isn't enough evidence to overturn it, then it should stay as is

    The president has said Richo has the boards' full support.

    Usually means the decision has already been made and they are planning the execution.

    It would be more believable if the prez came out and said, we can't sack him coz it would be too expensive.

    Which might be right, he's contracted through the end of 2020. So this and two more seasons. Ouch.

    Nothing says "AFL applying worlds best practice" like looking at grainy blurred lo res footage and using it to overturn a decision made by an actual human 2m from the event that they're reviewing.

    In tandem with good development and a good culture. If players aren't coached properly, they don't win games every week and they certainly don't win the ultimate prize. 

    Humanity has a real issue with viewing everything as black and white (I am still guilty of this, but am trying to change). It is never that simple. 

    I know other things are needed, but my post was that List Management/Recruiting is the most important aspect.

    You need the socks before you can pull them up.

    Agreed. Ours was totally wrong 180 degrees 10 years ago

    Any decent team would have put Adelaide away by now, they’re very ordinary. 

    Who’s more bogan, Walker or Ballantyne?

    Dockers are all over the Crows, they just have woeful disposal most of the time. The long bomb into their 50 is killing them.

    Go Freo

    Honestly, is Jenkins the biggest pretender of all time? 800k a year? Omg

    Must be something about wearing #4 on your back

    He’s such a putz. Just stands in the goalsquare looking for the easy goal. I wouldn’t want him on our list even if he was on rookie wages.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
