Umpire literally blocked Lachie Neale from the ball coming to him and directly cost them a goal. Absolutely horrible and unjust. Surely something has to be done?!

Charlie Cameron.... 1 player from any club I think would make us a really tough side to beat. Aaannnddd then gives away a 50

Why do fwds try and mark on the goal line instead of shepherding the ball?!

gee the umpiring has been interesting.  That beams in the back wasn't there, the ump gets in the way and I thought they did review each goal so how did no one pick it up. Brisbane players are being held and they get zilch.

Good to hear the brisbane crowd up and about again 

But collingwood do look good when they go forward

Simple answer= They DONT review every goal. It clearly touched the post.

Umpiring has resulted in at least 3 goals to the Pies so far and missed a clear interference on a Brissy forward earlier for the shot directly in front.  Went down the other end for another Pie goal for a potential 12 point turnaround.

The ducking in the goal square decision up there with the worst for the year.  Brissy were within 5 points at that point from memory.

Pies got umpired all the way to the GF last year and it looks like AFLHQ want a repeat.

Is it just me or has footy been a real tough watch this year? So many whistles, horrible defensive zoning, slow play, poor skills. 

Just a real hard watch.

Is it just me who thinks Zorko is a fantastic footballer? 30 years of age but I'd have him at Melbourne.

It’s been the worst quality footy in my lifetime. Not a single quality or memorable game. The new rules and over-officiating by the umpires has destroyed the game.

I rewatched the Bulldogs-Essendon 2000 game this morning and the quality of footy and commentary in that game just leaves the modern game for dead.

The AFL needs to go back to that.

F$#k Leigh Matthews is tough to listen to. First he says "that's efficiency with a capital "I". Then says the game flows better with more free kicks... STFU & retire you dumbass

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
