What was Rampe thinking climbing the goal post? Should have actually been a free kick in the goal square.

I think the more pertinent question is why was Myers allowed to take that kick? On the coverage I was watching the siren clearly blew a second before he marked the ball. It wasn't even borderline, the siren clearly went before the mark.

Can anyone confirm if that was indeed the case, or my feed is total crapola?

Edit: I've just watched the final 2 minute clip on the AFL website and it has been 'doctored' right at the point where Myers marks the ball. The original vision was smooth, that vision has a cut in it right at the crucial point. Coverup!

Heppell must have had some $$$ on Sydney to win under a goal

The whole sequence was odd, whoever the bloke was lining up for the shot was smirking and winking to team mates prior to the kick like he had it in the bag. Then he and Heppell giggling about it afterward like it was at the end of the 1 qtr or something. Suck it Ess fans, you’re captain is a loon!

It’s when the umpires hear the siren, should taken a second longer to hear it at that distance from siren to umpire for sure.

They must have heard it early at end of 2nd qtr as it looked like the Syd player kicked the ball before the siren went.

Ha Ha, that’s what most thought but reading an article this morning perhaps not.

Umpire Andre Gianfagna ran towards the goalsquare and said "Down, down" to warn Rampe while Myers' shot was in the air.

Bomberblitz in meltdown also.  The carping on here after a loss pales in comparison.  There's even a reference to a softening of hatred towards us lol...

?? It’s getting harder by the week to give Melbourne ■■■■ for under achieving.

?? 2-6 last season, 3-5 this season. We’ve learned nothing.

Get ■■■■■■ Essendon.

?? This loss has tipped me over the edge.
I think I’m done.
Zero progress in over a decade and I’m severely tested.
Enough is enough.

?? Seriously, dumbest ■■■■■■■ footballers in the country. Bombing long didn’t work the first time, didn’t work the 31st time didn’t work the 51st time, so let’s just try it one more time and see if it works hey Dys. ■■■■■■■ idiots.

?? ■■■■■■■ over it

what a bunch of ■■■■■■■ criminals.

Heppell should lose the fxxcking captaincy over this photo. It should be front page of the HS.

?? I’m done. Never been so despondent after a game in the last 15 years. The talent is there. Captain and coach have to go. Two years in a row of being the best / worst team.

#$%& this team. Never felt this way but I’m done. Glad they’re all mates and have fun together. Hodgey was prob a !@#$ of a bloke but got them flags. Heps isn’t the one to lead us to the gloryland and neither is woosha.

?? Tonight has confirmed,as Essendon supporters, we have absolutely no right referring to other teams as 'peasant loser clubs

That is the most pleasant read I’ve had for a while. Cheating losers. Haven’t won a final for 15 years. They have zero leadership

have talent but no grunt

geez, as much as I love seeing the Druglords get robbed,  the umpiring department needs to have a royal commission and everyone must be sick to death of the Cola Swans being looked after year after year.

I hear you Dub but I'm not gloating given they beat us only a few weeks ago and how we've been travelling till last week.

A former MFC rookie.... good to see him still involved in the game. Reminds me of Paul Reiffel a former Australian cricketer (35 tests) who is now on the elite cricket umpire panel. Would be good to see a few more of those players who did not quite make it on the AFL umpiring panel.

In the days of Ricky Barham flying down the wing and Tommy Hafey as their coach they were my second team. It only lasted until they won the 1990 premiership. I think that was the year my MFCSS started as I began to realise any team could have won that year and we fluffed it.

Thats what makes there loss even better. Can you imagine Longmire after the game if Rampe gave away the free for doing something so stupid. I'm tipping Rampe was spoken to after the game on not to do that again. 

Just watched the last 2 minutes. That was a good tackle by Blakey  in the closing moments. Although not sure why he chose to kick it where to did to Hurley on is own and not down the line. But did you notice the wink and the smile Myers did as he marked it? As if to say watch this. Well he stuffed it. 

Gee how rapt would the lions players be coming down to play at Ballarat today?  nice 13 degree day for them.

If one of our players missed a shot after the siren that far out you could maybe forgive them for missing, but if that player then went over to Jones or Viney and they started laughing you would be annoyed. 

But it is stupid that we lose to essendon, we beat sydney and essendon lose to the swans. It does make our loss to them hurt more. 

Carlton could be in for another painful long day.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
