    I wonder whether the reviewers thought the question was which side of the post it went through. They made that decision awfully quickly with only one camera angle.

    Just saw an angle that has me changing my mind (yes miracles can happen), I was wrong there, did go through goals

    Carlton May fight out epic draw. 

    All up to our 22. 

    Knowing our luck probably be team to finish outside 8 with highest percentage ever.

    Classic Jenkins. Said post match he thought ball touched the post. 

    Definitely went through the goals as you can see the shadow of the ball goal side. Wouldn’t have a clue if it snuck the post though.

    No, it went left unless I am seeing things.  My stills show that ....

    Kind of want Sydney to win this. Think positive I want the best chance at top 4. 

    I really believe we are a genuine chance in all 4 of our games.

    I am not worried what other teams are doing. If we just keep winning.

    If we lose, we are still not good enough

    i think our midfield is ready to kill, time will tell if i am right. 

    Port lost to Adelaide - great. Swans to account for Collingwood - game just started. We trash GCoast tomorrow. He comes position 3 on the ladder. Fingers crossed.

    Luke Darcy just said that Jenkins thought it hit the post.  Honest but seriously dumb by Jenkins.  Should have said 'umpire was in the best position to decide'.

    GWS will beat Carlton though. 

    assuming a win tomorrow next week is a big one.

    GWS V Adelaide, Port v West Coast and us against the Swans.

    Will definitely be a heart stopping weekend

    Crows win was good. It is really obvious why we let Watts go. He does nothing especially when it is tight.

    I hope the filth win as it may knock the stuffing out of the swans but I think the swans will win. 

    Awkward timing to say that when we are about to play Gold Coast in a must-win game late in the season!

    Having said that, I think you're quite right, and while I've never hated Watts it became obvious the moment I started thinking about our forward line without him. He just doesn't quite... do... anything in particular.

    Sorry Trav but that pic shows it in front of the goals. Can just see the point of the ball in front of the post

    That being said, I think it hit the post.

    I was adamant of it too, but on Ch7 I just saw and angle I hadn’t previously seen, on that it seems to go through goals and is clearest angle I have seen

     Adelaide can still make 8 so they will go for broke next week

    Absolutely. We hold our own destiny. 

    Great round of footy.

    The ball certainly went through the goal posts. Did it shave the post?

    The Camera angles cannot be conclusive (what a joke)

    Umpires call was a goal.

    Darcy Moore being given a bath by Franklin so far.

    Saved by the siren from yet another loss in a one on one marking comp.

    Obviously missing Dunn.

    Anybody's game but it does not look up to the standard of the other games based on the first quarter.

    Sydney have to win tonight. For a few reasons, so the pies can be knocked out of the top 4, they get ahead of the teams below them like cats, nth, essenscum and im sick of hearing abut the pies winning. 

    anyway is anyone watching the game of the round Saints v Bulldogs? Saints have started well and I reckon they will beat the dogs. 

    Well done hawks today. I just watched the last 2 minutes off the afl site. I think it makes it sweeter they lost by a small margin. I couldn't help myself. I had to go over to bomberblitz for a laugh.

    Yeah with you on that. Hard fought game but the skill level is lacking. I'm on the Swans. I just can't barrack for Collingwood sorry.

    I;m with you @GCDee - we have form in the west - particularly as they're depleted - we match up rather well.

    I think on body of work for the year - we should get up over sydney - irrespective of what happens in our and their match.

    And I think in the case of the GWS - they;ve got more class and outside (which can kill us) but we should go alright up forward - it's contingent on planning and execution (as i guess it is every week(.

    The filth are doing the right thing but for the 2nd half I don't know. Strangely I think the swans will play the MCG better than the SCG.

    Jenkins is not any sort of umpire, so his opinion is irrelevant.The umpires followed accepted procedures and the reviewer saw no reason to contradict the umpires call. Nothing would be done now to overturn it even if there is evidence it hit the top of the point post. game over

    Port play west coast in Adelaide next week with a few showers forecast.  I don’t rate Port that highly but hopefully they’ll make it a slog next week.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
