Just heard the best description of a blatant free kick which was not given against Roughead. A commentator called it "the good bloke rule." Enough said.

There there...it's ok Roughy we'll overlook that one!  What's that you say?  Yes of course all four of us!

    Just hope we continue in the last quarter and don’t fade out. 

    Harmes and Salem really stepping it up! Lockhart and Stretch decent as well. Keep fighting boys!

    Why are Hawthorn allowed to shepherd the man on the mark, but no other team is allowed?

    Has been a tactic they have used for at least three seasons.  Takes away one player from downfield but is an interesting tactic

    Melk is horribly off his best

     

    Hooray...you have to physically be dragged down to get a free lol

    14 frees to 9 in Hawthorn favour

    And even Eddie is calling out the ones they are missing

    F... I hate those cheating maggots

    Unfortunately I couldn't go to the game today and I have no vision of it.  I am listening to 3AW. They are saying Melbourne are not getting rewarded in the free kick department. Like usual. 

    OH FFS - 50 metres penalty in front of goal again. Free Kick Hawthorn alive and well!!


    Harmes was 1 metre away when the mark was taken. What could he do?

    Going to need to take our chances a bit better, but fingers crossed they can keep up the pressure, at least.


    We were no where near the protected area then... [censored] rort

     

    Omac cant even get off the ground.  Not even VFL level.  Harmes 2nd incursion.  What a horrible play on from Clarry

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
