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.

    Thought it was there (the free kick) high contact and he was going for the ball

    Selwood has been paid those almost every week

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
