Riewoldt is doing it to the player next to him as well. Unsure why that wasn’t also reported on. 

I'm sure we all know why

    Best spin I’ve seen since Warney’s leg breaks by Ward but hey, it’s the Dons. 

    As much as I hate the Bummers, I hope Ward gets a hefty fine for that effort... worse than Papley’s in as far as it directly impacted the result

    God this is weird.  Id be surprised if Chol wasnt angry about it.  If anyone stuck their finger in my bum they'd be knocked out cold on the spot.  And I didnt even mentioned the constant penis grabbing.  

    What does everyone else think?  Watch the video before you comment

    I saw it when they sang the song last week and I thought how weird. What possesses another person to do that. But it has happened more than once. I mean if I'm Short or Vlastuin I'd look back and think why would I do that. Would I really want someone doing that to me. Just sing the song and be done with it. But I kind of like how Dimma got taken to task on it. I bet after the presser there was a bit of scrambling going on to see what happened.

    It has not gone unnoticed

    Big Footy board (general) has a lively discussion as does the Tigers sub forum

    I noticed a post that it's now in the hands of the AFL integrity unit... (no I cannot comment)

    Essendon losing no matter the margin always makes for a good weekend when it’s under a goal with a dodgy free kick just makes it a little sweeter.

    Does Ward deserve a fine for his dive? I’m in two minds, I hate divers but I also love seeing Essendon lose after a dodgy free kick is paid against them.

    And here's the Richmond apology...

    Richmond's statement released later on Friday said: "It had become aware of some player behaviour during post-match team songs recently that is unacceptable and not in line with the club or community expectations."

    "It was a stupid action and I am deeply embarrassed. I've apologised to Mabior," Vlastuin said.

    "It was unacceptable behaviour and a poor example," Short said.

    It’s been an interesting discussion post game on Fox ht. Ward himself said he played it well because he knew contact was coming. At first glance it looked like over exaggerating post contact. 

    Interesting to see if they do fine him, because if they do are they admitting an umpire error possibly cost a team the game? It can’t be a free and staging at the same time. I don’t necessarily blame the ump in this instant, it all happens quick out there.

    A good ump would just put the whistle away and let the game play out.

    There's not many of those around.

    Close results aside that was an atrocious game.

    It was played on the boundary line. Ball was out maybe 60-70% of the time. Strangely it was almost always on the camera side of the ground

    Same for so many games.

    I watched the F1 warm up (very boring) and then skipped through the game(kayo 30 second jump is wonderful).

    I don’t watch non MFC matches these days aside from the occasional Essendon match when they are a chance to lose. I stopped last night half through the 3rd when they were well up. Best start to the day to wake up this morning and find they got rolled. 

    (My other guilty pleasure is Scully leaving Melbourne when we were [censored], going to a [censored] GWS and finally settling on a [censored] Hawthorn. Yes I know he is filthy rich)

    Ward free was there

    Russian judge gave him an 8.8 for the pirouette midair

    It was definitely there - hip to neck - but he did make the most of it.

    The thing that scares me about the run home is we are playing our classic bogey teams  (North, Pies, St Kilda, Doggies).

    We seem to always lose to them no matter how well we are traveling.  Especially bloody North and the Saints.

    That's assuming of course, that all of those teams above us from 5th to 11th lose their games - signed, The Wet Blanket ?

    Doggies losing today would help our cause.   The other 3 teams playing today are irrelevant to us, they will all finish top 4.   Just need the Lions to get the job done.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • 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.
