Has a team ever won the Inside 50 count by 20 and had more Inside 50s than their score?

There’s not many games that the umpires really impact!

But they absolutely screwed the Demons tonight!


Umpiring a disgrace.

Harmes killed all our momentum in the third quarter when he decided to go and hit a number of Port Adelaide players on the [censored].

Lewis cooked.

Tyson cooked.

Fumbles.

Umpiring a disgrace.

Oscar is nothing with Lever.

Melksham and Tom McDonald couldn't buy a free kick.

Hogan went missing.

Jetta is a star.

 

I'm not unhappy with our effort away from home.

I thought we deserved to win but for the umpiring.. early it was the momentum stopping free.  Late it was 10 consecutive free kicks in the last quarter. 

What else can we do?


Four point to the AFL tonight. 

That was as blatant as is gets

We lack composure. We don’t make selections factoring in the opposition or the conditions. We don’t beat good teams.

Great effort by most with poor execution. Needed to take our chances in the first half but couldn’t break them or the crowd. Two many that think they are better than they are. Hogan and Petracca time for your talent to be matched with intensity. 

Deserved to lose. 

Taking out Spargo and not bringing in another crumber, having all those useless inside 50’s with no one to pounce, while Tyson comes in to do some bit part stoppage work in some sort of made up role is just nonsense. 

Worst part is Port were awful. 


Don't care what anyone says, we were absolutely robbed by those [censored] maggots!!

I think we will probably scrape into the 8, and lose week one. 

Too many players who give us nothing under pressure. Jetta and McDonald literally bleed for us, while Petracca, Tyson, Hogan, Neal Bullen etc disappear. 

Losing Lever was the end of our season. 

I hope we make finals to get over that mental hurdle, but sadly we are nowhere near good enough to impact in September. 

A brave effort.

Utterly disgusting umpiring

But gee we do some stupid stuff, ie Oscar's 50m penalty when he was three weeks late, to pick one example 


With that loss and seeing as we can’t beat any team with talent and with the run home for other clubs below us I can’t see us getting near the eight now.

Pretenders may as well book September holidays

Just did!!

If you follow the Socceroos and Melbourne you seriously need some good counseling.

 

Lost that in the first half with so much wasted opportunity. We had them complete on toast but persisted with the long bomb inside 50 to a pack of 10 players system which NEVER works for us. Just dumb footy.

umpiring sucked bad but we lost that ourselves

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
