North still have to play Adelaide in Adelaide

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(.

He's deliberately poking the port adelaide bear... love it.

not the sharpest tool in the shed

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: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
