No. There was no play on call and he was tackled to the ground.

That's where I reckon the rule needs changing.  Waiting for the play on call is unfair to the tackler. While I admit the one tonight was line ball, I reckon the umps should decide the issue without hiding behind a 'no play on' call if it is clear the player was playing on.

    Early call, but the Baggers remind me a little bit (actually a lot) of our Neeld era club. Lots of very ordinary players, dodgy recruiting and “guns” who seem to be getting no better (Dow?). It seems they have put 30-50 games into a very ordinary list, and topped up the guns with very ordinary second tier players. Cripps a star, but apart from Walsh, no one else looking like it. Cheap shot by McGovern, then fell over like a pack of spuds. Ordinary! May they continue to suffer!!!!

    Agreed. I think Cripps should get out of there. No idea where he should go though....

    why the usual half time break?

    Thought they all wanted to shorten it and it was only kept so the fans could get to the toilet etc....No fans ...so

    No no no.... They had 4 number 1 picks run out tonight! 

    They have 9 first round picks playing tonight (if you include Martin) 

    Most of those picks are top 10 as well....

    God. This is incredibly boring. If that is what we are in for there really is no point. I’m going to watch Netflix - had enough.

    No different than  any other season opener between Richmond and Carlton.

    Sorry that’s why I meant, number 1s!! Crazy.

    Absolutely zero atmosphere. The worst thing is that it emphasizes the terrible commentators and umpires.

    I was thinking this playing without crowds thing advantages GWS the most out of all the clubs.  It will be like they are getting a home game every round.

    Should become a free agent right in our premiership window, so I recon it's payback time.

    Basically in junk time as far as I'm concerned. 

    He would have been handy, but not at inflated prices.

    Has tackling become passé in the modern game? I don’t know how you can match the Tigers without closing down space and tackling relentlessly.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
