These umpires are killing the game seriously. 50 metre penalties are BS

WTF is going on Gill??

Is that a serious question? 

Gill is pandering to the corporate advertisers and hasn’t a clue what drives footy fans to follow their teams through thick and thin. 

Cares about the bottom line 1,2 and 3.  The fans 98, 99 and ?

    Wow lions 3 and 0 us 0 and 3. 

    Who the hell would have thought that at the start of season.  Sure as hell wasnt  me. 

     

    I had the Lions finishing 6th on the ladder.  Their form doesn't surprise me. 

    In the interest of transparency,  I had us finishing 2nd.  And strangely enough,  our form doesn't surprise me.  Because we are Melbourne.

    That McInerney goes alright. Has bobbed up when needed the last two weeks with some strong marking and goals.

    He was right on our doorstep, instead we chose some giraffe spud called Filipovic.

    Filipovic was the biggest dud ever, our recruiter should be sacked

    I'm liking the look of Brisbane.  They have some really good young talls who are starting to get their act together and have drafted a raft of fast hard mids with good foot skills.  Hipwood seems to have pulled his head out of his [censored], McInerny is standing up as the spare ruck/resting forward and Stef Martin is continuing his good form.  Bringing in Fagan seems to have been a masterstroke.

    Will be interested to see when the MRP  slaps Dusty with a feather for his actions.

    Dusty should get 2 weeks for that behind the ball hit and the an extra week for that snorting signal. 

    Hope the hawks beat nth today just to keep them on the bottom and Brad Scott is kept winless

    Every week I come on this forum saying I hope essenscum lose but obviously stuffed that up, but at least the pies lost. By the way I did laugh when the pies fans booed Sheed last night when he was going for goal. Just because he kicked the winner in the gf because the pies gave up a 5 goal lead, it isn't his fault. 

    Im happy to see brisbane do well. Its good for qld footy 

    Why is the dogs/suns game today beginning at 2:20 and not 1:10?

    Roughead out is a massive loss for the hawks though

    Last year we lead by 75 points against GC in the second qtr.

    hate to think what the result would be today if we played them.

    GC have inproved out of sight since May had left them.

    Got in fresh young talent who are playing with such extreme enthusiasm.

    And off loaded a few prima donnas who didn’t want to play for their pay.

    Suns look a lot better without Lynch and May. Great team spirit despite the dogs having double the free kicks as usual

    Rod Grinter would have got 12 weeks for the same offence !!

    Wonder if the Dogs' win last week was more a product of Hawthorn hitting a wall in the fourth quarter with only two on the bench.

    Props to GC for getting two wins on the board early, they certainly look a much better side than last year, but the only way they could have had an easier fixture so far than St Kilda, Fremantle and the Dogs would be if they'd had us in there somewhere.

    Yep, that's it. Everything else has stayed the same.

    Seriously BBP.

    He will get 2 with 1 for a guilty plea. Should be 3 with 2 as off the ball.

    GC would have beaten us easily today. Our one paced wombats bloated with bathwater  would have been left in the dust.

    Demoralising, it would have been.

    Come on man... that statement is based on YOUR expectations of where YOU think the team should be... 

    It's fine to be disappointed, and if you can look across the team and go 'aye, they're simply getting their paycheck and not putting in effort' for each an every one of them - then I would concur - but it aint right.... :)

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
