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.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
