    Margetts was dropped for not paying the foot fend off by Greene.....

    And I just read on Hawks Big Footy that Stevic is one of them.....so solve for 23!

    I'm praying for anyone but Nicholls. The game will be worse off with him umpiring, not to mention how much he favours the Hawks. He is a horrible umpire and it still mystifies me how he is employed in a role he is unable to perform adequately.

    Nichols has to have photo's, there's no way known he could get a game on merit...

    there is incompetence when it comes to AFL umpires and....well....then there's Nicholls and his officiating of MFC games.   His sustained bias against Melbourne rules out incompetence (which is random) and leaves you with the unpalatable options of corruption or hatred. 

    I haven't to date been able to postulate a credible theory around corruption so I am left to conclude it is a deeply rooted hatred of the MFC that has a conscious or subconscious manifestation in his match day officiating of MFC games. 

    But make no mistake, it is REAL and he is a cheat.

    On the flip side, it was pleasing to see Rosebury tell Howe to get up after the push from Caddy.   Clearly it should've been a free kick but Rosebury is an experienced umpire who was clearly aware of the niggle being deployed by Howe so let it go.  That augers well for Friday night as there'll be plenty more of that from Howe and Sicily as they try it on our young Dees.   I hope Aaron smashes the pair of them Jordan Murdoch style....

    Nicholls is the worst umpire in the league. Worse than Pannell and that's saying something. Stevic follows shortly behind.

    Disgusting.

    There must be data available, though no doubt the AFL have hidden it deeply somewhere, on the number of frees by umpire for and against each team.

    Absolutely no doubt that Nicholls gives more to the Hawks than most, and fewer against them, and fewer to the Dees and more against than any other umpire.

    Seriously we will need to be a five goal better than Hawks team on Friday to have any hope at all.

    Thanks Gillon.

    Hawthorn will have 23 players now Andy.

    I will try and get the air rifle through the airport checking station!

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
