Clearly two very different versions of holding the ball. 

Who is 35 GW$?   Just throwing elbows to the larynx then kneed same guy in the head when on the ground. Dirty dog. 

They get the Greene light from the AFL don't they.

    Maybe, but these constant elbows to the ribs and the kidneys are unnecessary. 

    So pay a free. But don’t tell the players the rules, it is not right

    WTF was that holding free just on the siren?

    Looked like a 50/50 or the Lion being held. Was that the showman Chamberpot who paid that?

    Tomlinson watch:

    5 possessions and just directly cost his side a goal with a kick into the man on the mark.

    Me thinks he’s mentally checked out.

    I hope they are not getting him to play wing (as has been reported in the media), has been very poor so far.

    While he is better than some of our fringe players it will be a terrible decision if it takes our ability to pay for a quality player in the future away. I can't see where he fits into our team.

    Agree with you there.  But just because it 'has always been part of the game" does not justify actions which have nothing to do with the game.  If I wanted to watch boxing or karate, I wouldn't go to the footy.

    It’s a physical game. Niggle has always been part of it

    Certainly a physical game but why should good players in particular have to put up with incessant jabs (Essendon excepted), punches and elbows. 

    Times do change - how many games would Jack Dyer or Ted Whitten or Leigh Matthews play in a year nowadays?

    Don’t understand this game anymore

    Lions being a bit Melbournian dominating inside 50s but only scoring behinds. 

    Bombing it in for the GW$ to take simple marks.

    That is an interesting question, i am not against an Umpire calling a free. But it is Not his job to Coach players on how to play the game.

    Lions may as well kick the ball along the ground when entering fwd 50.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
