  • If we can’t beat Melbourne then the season doesn’t look promising. 
  • Lol May. He's absolutely melting under pressure.
  • Pretty good considering we gave them 8 goals from awful use out of def 50.
  • Should've beaten those muppets.
  • Played against Melbourne and the umpires tonight.
  • Another reality check, still a bottom 4 side.
  • Gawn just tapped it to Melbourne mids at will out of the middle.
  • Forini is comfortably worst on ground. Lazy and [censored] weak.
  • Gawn is an awesome player, but seriously Witts is ******** aweful.
  • Melbourne playing like a team that has had the media riding and questioning them all week.
  • This mob has it all over us. 
  • Credit to Dees, we were trying to scratch it out but Dees pressure was awesome. Their effort was great.
  • They just kept kicking out to Gawn and he kept marking it. Need to at least contest better.
  • Dude (Max) is a weapon.
  • This is looking like 2019 all over again.

    Seriously?  The Umps were searching for frees to pay to GC all night.  That free to Rankine on the boundary...  WTF?  And the two dodgy frees to give Ellis his second goal.  Then there were all of the HTB decisions they paid to GC that they refused to pay to us...  The umps were a disgrace all night.

    Seriously right? Over on their FB page, they are ropeable about the umpiring.

    It's probably just a business that's paid to set up a site to look like a fan forum. Also known as astroturfing.

    The IP address for the GC website would be AFL House definitely.

    They were right about Max

    This is like a teenager picking on the primary school kid. Collingwood or Hawks supporters would [censored] their pants laughing if they saw this. Let’s become relevant first...

    The constant theme in these oppo threads is Max Gawn.

    Makes you appreciate how lucky we are to have him.

    You’ve got to love it when both sets of supporters think they got the rough end of the pineapple with the umpiring. It’s why I don’t bother - I know I’m too one-eyed to judge objectively. Everyone who is invested in a team is.

    Our game is hard to umpire, made harder by ever-changing rules and interpretations, and weird and wonderful calls will get made sometimes. I reckon the culture of moaning about all the time is one of the uglier aspects of our game.

    Whilst I'm completely aligned with the thrust of your thread Nasher, I'm really surprised not to have read any analysis on the near elimination of biased umpiring performances during the Covid crisis and the obvious conclusion that the "noise of affirmation" phenomena is an irrefutable reality.

    Good point Nasher, maybe this topic should have it's own thread, but I think with the game slowing down due to the u/12 type tactics of teams these days, do we really need 3 (and sometimes 4 umpires),? Each has their own interpretation of the rules, which only fuels the inconsistency argument.  Most umpires are guessers, that is why habitual actors like Danger and Duckwood get frees paid to them constantly.

    I think the game needs just 2 umpires, lets face it for most of the game they are stuck one half or the other, I'm a great believer in human frailties being part of the game, get rid of the goal line technology, cut down to two umpires (one at each end) and let them make mistakes like everyone else  Shrug and get on with the game (win some lose some)

    Are they serious about the umps (or refs, as they'd call them)?

    Some of the HTB calls alone last night were atrocious!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
