Are the Dogs permitted 15 players on the mark? If not, could the ump give another kick with a 50m penalty?

Starting this thread early as it's shaping for a big weekend ladder wise and for the Dees. Who do we want to win these crunch games

Rich v Syd (THURS)

- I hope Tigers win, we don't want any interstate teams in the top 4.✔️✔️

WB v Cats

- Cats are definitely not playing their best this year and Dogs played OK v North and you don't know what they'll bring. A Dogs win hopefully✔️✔️

Carl v Port

- Carlton played well yesterday and Port aren't as good as people reckon, they actually played awful v Dees and we still found a way to lose. Upset highly unlikely but game is at the MCG.

Adel v WCE

- Can the Crows at home upset a vulnerable WCE?

GC v Coll

- Collingwood win easily

GWS v Haw

- Hoping GWS win, Hawks are zoning in on a top 8 finish

Melb v STK

- We need to win and win big, keep that percentage up, 50+ win would be nice

Ess v North

- I think Bombers will win this, North doing their usual start the season well and folding this year I'd say, Ess win helps us.

I wondered that too.  Just assumed that it's fine so long as none of them encroached on the mark.  Can't see why it would be disallowed - in normal play you'd only be disadvantaging yourself by having your whole team on the mark.

 

Huge win by the Dogs and great for us! 

I've talked him up on here earlier in the year, but Ed Richards looks like a star in the making. He's just got footy smarts, pace, skill, intensity and is a joy to watch play. Great get by the Dogs pulling the trigger on him slightly earlier than expected last draft.

As long as none of them encroach over the mark it's surely ok. But the umpires are inclined to make it up on the run and just pay some nonsensical penalty. Luckily they didn't.


How was Chris Scott's celebration when Harry Taylor marked it? Bahaha. You absolute gronker. I wish there was a reaction shot.

Classless celebration by the dogs, but not surprising 

Almost 10 years since they’ve beaten them - unless I’m missing something?

Why were we denied vision of Chris Scott on the final siren ??? That would have been almost as entertaining as seeing Taylor stuff up the attempt on goal.

As I said it is public, seems a little precious to not allow it in here. 

I'm just wondering why anyone would want to read that kind of vulgarity.  It's just gross and clearly not appropriate, for this forum, or any forum.  It's the first time I've ever heard of any dope football commentator being sacked on the spot, and we all know how low the bar is for commentary quality in our sport, so I'm a bit surprised you're surprised I don't want the comments on here.

Seriously.  It will take anyone two seconds for anyone to Google it if they desperately need to know what was said. I even told you exactly where to look.  There is absolutely zero need for someone who comes in here to chat about the awesome game that just happens to unwittingly stumble upon Hall's revolting comment.

Only one on the mark 'Moon', the other 14 were behind it otherwise it would have been a 50m penalty.

He left the box when Taylor took the mark- punching the air in celebration.

Loving watching this press conference. He's actually relatively well behaved in this.

On the replay, it looked like Bontempelli was marginally in front of Rourke to me.

Channel 7 just refused to show it, despite showing every other angle (including Beveridge's reaction for the last 45 seconds of the match). [censored] hopeless broadcaster. Everyone wants to see that [censored] Scott go from elation to misery!

I've got to confess, I don't hate hearing him talk; he's always pretty rational, balanced and considered.  It's just the way he carries on like a toss in the box that irks me.

His arrogance and ego does split through sometimes, but he reminds me of me haha. Absolute white line fever and then can have a very rational discussion in the aftermath.

You are.

To celebrate like that after a missed shot in a HOME AND AWAY GAME is just childish and pathetic

They thought they'd lost mate.  Come on, of course they were going to carry on like pork chops in that kind of win.  Their reaction reflected how I felt for them about it.

That's because he didn't watch it. Just said so in the presser, so he moved out of sight of the cameras.

Have you considered the fact they lost the game last week by a small margin after being in front as well and have had a horrible year, plus all the pressure of the much talked about post premiership drop off?

I’m not calling these excuses but they all add up. You want footy players to be Robots?

Totally understand we want players to be professionals - but these kids live it Day in and out. Good time to let it all out after a game.

They reminded me of how we used to carry on like a bunch of easily satisfied fool when we we won our four games of the year.... high fives all round

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
