How ironic is it that Worsfold's Essendrug team play in front of CHEMIST WAREHOUSE flashing billboards?

Gold.

    I walked out of the room for a few seconds. Did Cale Hooker mark the ball or was he given a free? 

    Marked it. He was brilliant up forward in the last quarter. I wish our tall forwards were able to compete in contested marking situations like him.

    That looked touched to me. 

    And not even reviewed!

    It would be interesting to analyse the betting odds throughout the game and check on a few persons of interest's accounts.

    Speak8ng through my kick but jeez the bombers got some dubious frees and the giants got nada. Why wasn't that a mark to Tomlinson?

    From the broadcasting partner to the umpires department that would be on of the biggest con jobs I have ever seen. How corrupt and just plain incompetent is this organisation.

    Corrupt umpires or are they just completely incompetent? 

    Is the answer to your question necessarily binary?

    Not at all. A little from column A, a little from column B?

    To all those who think umpires don’t influence results (or that crowds don’t influence umpires’ decisions), please watch that last quarter. Utterly ridiculous. Most one-sided crap I’ve seen since, well, the Eagles’ last home game.

    I cannot believe how that game was destroyed by bad umpiring which appeared to be so heavily biased to Essendon. Marks not paid to GWS, clear frees not paid to GWS, whereas completely ridiculous frees were plucked out of nowhere to Essendon, turning the momentum of the game. A disgraceful performance by the AFL.

    Stupid giants. All you had to do was beat essendon. You have this talented list and couldn't beat them and just ruined our start to the round. Mind you I didn't watch 1 second of it. But gee Giants hope that doesn't cost you at the end.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
