FML.

just as he’s starting really add value to the team.

What else?

 

Probably shut it in the car door when he realised he was about to be typecast as a tagger.

Did that happen with the ( not paid) kicking in danger that resulted in a goal to Geelong?

It would be very interesting to know.  Umpires got very slack about paying these frees though I think they have got a bit tougher recently. Still not tough enough IMO.

bloody unbelievable ?

A speedy recovery Mr Harmes 

 

Let me just quote myself from the Post match discussion thread:

"There was a centre bounce in the last quarter too where the pack was around a ground ball, Harmes bent to pick it up, a Geelong player kicked the ball off the ground and they wound up with a goal. It was possibly the worst case of kicking in danger I can remember. The Geelong player booted Harmes' wrist and his shoulder bumped into Harmes shoulder/neck. Harmes may have been injured as a result. Not only was it a definite free kick, it was borderline report worthy. But ofcourse, no free kick called and resulted in Geelong goal to keep their momentum going and get them over the line".

If that incident I described on the weekend is the cause of Harmes' broken hand then the club should be fuming. We were legitimately robbed by the umpires on the weekend. Not only that, but they've failed in their responsibility of ensuring players receive duty of care when on the field, as one of our players is now injured due to a careless rough act that went unpenalised. Unbelievable. I hope the club lodges a formal complaint against the umpires from the weekend. What a f*cking pathetic waste of skin they are.

By now, you should be aware that Geelong, Collingwood, Carlton and Essendon can do anything against the rules if it is to their advantage and moreso if it enables a quick, scoring return. I think that one as you describe is a non-decision once again that was purposefully ignored. Accountability?

The umps or the club? ??

The Club needs to draw a line in the sand with the umpiring...thats...culpable.

If it did indeed happen at that time, the club should raise this with the AFL.  

I wonder what happened about raising the Dangercon incident?

Hawkins got off for smashing Fritsch as well.

This club is pi$$weak at speaking out when we should.

Hope Pert does something about it.

We need to get on the front foot with the umps before playing in another hostile environment this weekend

Harmes is becoming quite a reliable player. Another quiet achiever for this year. Soon will eclipse Wayne i hope three times.......

Harmes needs a massive pat on the back after last weeks game. Selwood kept to just 16 touches but what might be the best thing to come out of the game was Selwood got just one free kick... JUST ONE!!!!

Suffer in ya jocks... ya d!ckhead ;)

Only at Melbourne does a player hit career best form and gets immediately injured. 


I'VE HAD THIS BULLDUST WE ARE CURSED GOODBYE CRUEL WORLD!

Lever starts developing back into AA form. Gets injured for the rest of the season.

Stretch finally plays a solid AFL game and shows some of the qualities we could really use in the side. Gets injured for the rest of the season.

Viney and Hibberd work back into some form (albeit not spectacular from either of them). Both get injured.

Harmes finds a niche as a tagger and in successive weeks takes out A-grade midfielders in Macrae, Selwood and Dangerfield. Gets injured.

We had a solid run with injuries in the first half of the year but that luck appears to have firmly run out now.

Makes the Port and St Kilda losses harder to stomach, given at that time we had just Lever out from our first choice 22 (Hunt having been dropped before getting injured).

According to some people on here, Umpires dont cost teams games. 

Go and watch the game over and you will see the garbage that got paid against us on sat night.

Looks like that visit from Troy Pannell paid off for Geelong. [censored] the AFL.

Can we get a priest, a rabbi, a sheik and some Buddhist monks to come and bless the club? Remove the bad energy? 

Sage leaves? Tea leaves? Some Glenn20 perhaps?

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
