Worst caller by a mile. Hard to even fathom that considering they employ Cameron Ling

Ling is dreadful but Basil matches him with Du-whane Russell not far behind. Three complete hacks.

Did a commentator just say referring to GWS, "a home team with a healthy home crowd"?

I'd hate to see an unhealthy home crowd. 

This is a final and there are two empty unopened stands and a smattering of empty seats around the ground.

As of yesterday I believe there were still 8,000 available tickets in a 20,000 capacity ‘stadium’

Lucky for the pre finals bye week, would hate to think how bad these matches would have been otherwise.

19,218 official attendance in a stadium that hold 24k yet so many empty seats..........mmmmmmmmmmm

Rubbish Figure. Total fabrication 

3 dud blow-outs to start the finals, capped off with a half-empty stadium.

How good is this year's finals series?

I wonder what fraction were Dog supporters.  Looked high to me.

Woeful down field decision

Off twitter @Stevo7AFL

“Canned” Giants chants coming through speakers in outer. Something new ...


A new low for Channel 7. Jobs for convicted drug cheats, plus nepotism as the icing on the cake.

Maybe they can hire Lance Armstrong to commentate their cycling coverage?

Jab Watson is now a Commentator

Bolton handy outside!!??


Grimes should be suspended for that blatant staging. Disgusting, cost Brisbane a direct shot on goal as well.

 

Apologies is ive missed this elsewhere 

Why  isnt this a Lions home final ?

Oh, everyone will be relieved to know that genius umpire Nicholls was the one who gifted Richmond their BS first goal thanks to that insane HTB against Rich (where he had all of 0.2 seconds to dispose of the ball before being tackled).

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
    This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
