That was blatant cheating last night to get the bombers home. You cant tell me they dont try and even up the competition to make it look better.

I guess we all see things differently, God Bless these Bombers fans on their footy page. Not even on Demonland do I believe we would stoop to ‘bin juice’ delusional levels if there was such a huge discrepancy in our favour.

‘See, I don’t think the umps were kind at all. I don’t think they paid us a single free that wasn’t a blatant free. On the other side I reckon they didn’t pay a couple of genuine ones against Richmond that cost us 3 goals at least’.

 

 

If port lose to the filth today then watch the umps stick a needle into the druggies next week so they can have a SA team in finals.

Hardwick frustrated by lack of free kicks for his team in win over Essendon

Hopefully, Simon Goodwin can also say much the same after we beat West Coast tomorrow because 27 - 15 would be a good outcome for a team traveling to Perth to play the Eagles.

Haven't read the article, but notice off one bad game with frees and even though on top of the ladder, Hardwick is into the umpires , putting them on notice for future games. Clarkson, the Scotts and several others do it but not us.

Yep. Maybe getting a bit nasty, would trickle down to the players.

Because we're pissweak. Like the team itself, we just roll over and take it.

The Melksham "non block"springs to mind as something that should have been questioned but as usual nothing. A bit like hanging Oliver out to dry last year when the umpires continuously called him for throwing the ball. In so many areas we are irrelevant.

Where for example is our view on the priority picks. As the team most recently denied such a pick our public stance is very relevant...but nothing.

Yep, this infuriates me. And you just know both those clubs will be looked after.

Desperately hoping for a Collingwood win today. That way we if we win tomoz, Port can’t go ahead of us and we’re in the finals.

Two Port wins and 1 Sydney win means we’re going to be in a percentage battle with Geelong, and I’m not particularly interested in missing the finals by 0.5% again

Geelong won't make up 13% and finish on the same points as us (because that means they'll drop a game or we win a game)

Today, we are all Freo.

Ross the Boss will be going down to Geelong to win and end their season.   A Nat Fyfe masterclass is on the cards.  Get it done, Dockers.


I think I counted three incidents he was responding to.  (Maybe a I forgot to paste one).

At any rate, if he complained about the umpires every week he’d start to look like a Scott brother.  Their whinging has made zero difference to their teams outcomes and people no longer pay attention because it is so regular.

People listen when Clarkson makes a complaint because a) he is one of the best and most respected coaches of all time and b) because he does it so sparingly.

Pies to turn the Power off for the rest of 2018.....

Don't like barracking for the Pies, but we really need a win from them today

It only gets worse- we may need to cheer Essendon next weekend...


Awesome. Nicholls umpiring. He can [censored] us up the ass by proxy ?

NEVER...

 

Isnt it better if Port wins?  I must be the only mad man left who thinks we can win the last two and finish 4th-5th.

  • 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?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
