Yep. Looked like a point to me, once the entire ball had crossed the line

I doubt the AFL truly cares SW.   As long as most of their favs are in the top 8 and the crowds/ratings are still rolling in.

Wasn't the score review originally mooted to be a goal line review only?  Then it somehow morphed in to a review of play outside the goal square to determine if the ball was touched.

The AFL failed to bed down the goal line stuff and is now struggling with the 'touched' aspect also.

    Wow another score review fiasco.  They didnt show the ball as it went completely over the line, instead stopping and shuffling the replay as it hit the line only.

    The AFL is a serious joke comp right now

    Not really. Jokes should be humorous. 

    Just clicked on Port v ?.  Maggots absolutely zero feel for the game re deliberate OOB.  Paid a mis hit by Daniels then ignored a blatant one by Port in Doggies forward picket.  

    Serious rain and hail.

    To be fair the serious rain makes it doubly hard to adjudicate Mono.

    Absolutely loving the chaos of wet weather vs the usual insane burst running and "keeping off" efforts into space of the usual dry stuff.

    Also interesting to see how different players handle the wet conditions.  Some get it and some don't.  Great 'Ant' (Caleb) weather although Jones has been doing well also in patches.

    SWYL - actually quite hard to miss them. 

    All pervasive and encouraging what may well already be and certainly will become a big influence on results aka “the integrity of the game”.  

    Look what it has done to cricket: 20/20, 50/50 without any doubt and probably to the “pure form”, tests.  

    And as for these little spot fire bets such as first goal or most possessions - is there any doubt that these are not at least occasionally rigged?

    I find these ads a total turn off: I have mentioned before that I often change channels or radio stations when they come on and often forget to switch back.

    It would be laughable if it wasn't such a serious problem for many people, when these ads bombard everybody with the joys of betting and the many ways you can bet on all kinds of scenarios, and then finish off with "please gamble responsibly". Kids don't even know what that means.

    So Hawthorn has 80, 000 members but as soon as they start losing very few of them turn up. To be fair, the dogs they registered as members aren't allowed direct entry into the ground. Pass me the tissues.

    That's a shame. The dogs would certainly be more loyal to their team. 

    Hawthorn supporters should show some intestinal fortitude and start acting like supporters. How many years have we been going to games with no expectations of even coming close to winning? We do it because we love our club. Hawthorn supporters are spoiled and should be ashamed of themselves.

    A number of consolations for the Pie supporters, not that I should trying to comfort them, but… 1) Round 16 2017, Richmond totally embarrassed by the Saints, kicked up the backside all the way to a flag.

    2) Despite losing nearly every other stat against the Roos last night, they win the free kick count 27 to 11! The umps have made it clear how much they love Collingwood this year, and no matter what happens, the Pies can always count on them. The umps took the Bulldogs to a flag in 2016, they’ll do the same for the Pies this year. (And if it wasn’t for that disgraceful display by the BHF and his mates in the Thursday night game, GWS would now be second, Collingwood third).

    Very happy that WBD beat Pies and North beat Port.

    Only prob is we are yet to play WBD and North.  No longer the 'easy' games they once seemed.

    Edited by Lucifer's Hero

    North has now won 3 of 4 since Shaw took over. We have 4 wins for the season.

    North looked absolutely the worst team in the comp 10 weeks ago. If they finish above us this year it'll only add to the embarrassment.

    Tigers took a big chance bringing 7 players back many of whom are underdone.  So far it has not worked.  Saints on fire and making it hard for powers to be to sack Richardson.

    And, the tigers might end up 9th...how novel!

    But will be happy to see tigers win - just to help keep essendon out of the finals!

    Roos seem to be playing Dees of 2018 style footy.

    Tons of pressure, hard at the man, contested footy with quick play on.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
