Heard an umpire say that Ra Richmond player wasn't holding the ball because he was already on the ground. Where was that rule for Gawn a few weeks ago?

The inconsistency in umpiring is a disgrace, and the AFL only have themselves to blame.

It wasn’t the player, it was the ball the umpire was referring to. Implying he didn’t drag it in as it was already under. 

Very subjective but that is how they continue to get the tick of approval

What have we done in the last 30-50 years ... he’s played against & saw the rabble we have been & apart from 2 gf which we lost to him by 96points we continue to unravel & can’t sustain success. You need to earn respect by winning something not pretending! 

True, but it annoys the [censored] out of me. I know respect must be earned but everyone taking pot shots wears a bit thin sometimes.... I get what you're saying tho.

It's all very clear to me now.

We need cows grazing on the G through the week, and extra dung beetles brought in to boost numbers.

That will reduce the fly population, and, ergo, fewer maggots.

?????????

The original “maggot infestation” comment by america de Cali had me in stitches, and then this post just pushed me over the edge. Best 1-2 comment punch in recent memory!

    Hunt continuing a good season. Looks like he’s blanketing Rioli and doing a very good job. I wish they used him more when he runs by teammates to create an option.

    which is what is actually encouraging for the future

    we've played like garbage all year but been really competitive, particularly since the bye (and we got the backline back and the forwardline got rebuilt due to injury)

    Maggots crucifying us frees 4 to 12

    Its not the free count that is the issue. It’s that there are rules that are only enforced when it benefits one side tonight  

    Free kick stats should be lopsided. They should be based on actual infringements which would be coincidental if it were the same. 



    If anyone happens to be looking over the stats at half time and notices that our 'clangers' count is the only stat where we are well off the Tigers, please remember that free kicks against count as clangers...

    That is not afl level from Wagner 

     

    Wagner up and under kick.

    Commentator: "was he trying to kick it up a chimney?!!"

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
