As much as I loathe Selwood - Pannell calls “play on” for the spear tackle. Overruled!  This clown and his 2 50 metre penalties cost us the 4 points against St Kilda. Don’t worry about ladder position this costs us.

    What Walker did was not leadership material or captain material. He just hits him high. Has to get weeks but will depend if Zac comes back on. 

    By the way can I just say well done to Kyle Cheney for still playing AFL footy. He may not be a superstar player and no one will ever talk about him but he has been around for 10 years now, 3 clubs and not bad for a #52 draft pick back in 07. Just battles on.

    Anyone else think that Eddie's was a goal? I thought Stewart swiped but missed it. Didn't see the ball change rotation in the slow mode.

    Edit: saw that replay just now. Probably touched.

    The reliance on the medical condition of the player who has been hit high is a newish thing yeah? Would Tex not be in line for a week or two in the past without taking into consideration concussion or damage etc?

    As soon as one of these idiot commentators says " Sparkle" Narkle, that's it, I switch the TV off.

    Have you switched off yet pd? BT just said “ look at Sparkle”.

    Tough game. Hope they pummel each other to pieces and Walker gets two weeks.

    This player takeover week of Fox Footy has blown regular viewing out of the water. AFL should farrk off the media and just employ current players to do commentary.

    How was Jenkins not held there?

    Exactly his arm was being pinned back. On another note this is a great game to watch. Nice and open.

    in Q1 Adelaide player marks the ball. Moves his arms as if about to handpass it but doesn't move either foot an inch. Immediate play-on call from umpire 5 metres away.   No wonder they can't deal with difficult decisions.

    Some are a tad whistle happy...others think they see things. 

    Some just ought not be officiating...not up to it.

    Reduce umps on field...less is more ( efficient )

    The game would be far less congested if umpires weren't so hot on players moving half an inch off their lines and calling play on.

    Tjeres more than just him it’s happening to. Something smells at that club... how many of the young ones will look to leave in the next couple of years?

    Bolton will be lucky to survive a 1 win season you’d think.

    It's not Bolton, its been there for an eternity (turn of the century)...  that stink comes from deep under the Elliot Stand.  Don't know whats under there.

    Anyway the powers of Lygon want all the class they can afford. 

    Even hiding young guns away from the team, resting.  Whilst they remain under the GC Sun.

     

    Guess we'll know soon enough, who wins the Lukosius Cup !

    Was just thinking the same thing. 

    Geelong are just below Ess in my least liked clubs, come on Crows you chit trucks.

    Gary Ablett just got the softest free kick I've ever seen.

    If they paid that all the time there would be 300 frees given in a game.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
