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...

     

    Wagner up and under kick.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      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.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
