Ha ha, Ricciuto saying it's great umpiring to reverse it.  I wonder why?  No bias there.

If we're playing any other side we're down at quarter time.  We aren't playing well at all... but we're in front.  How, I don't know.

Viney and May have been good.  Thought Sparrow had a dip and Langdon was good on the wing.

That's about it really.

    Umpires going to gift this to the Crows. As blatant as it gets. Corrupt.

    What just happened?


    I thought they'd learnt from Pittard last week. But that act was a disgrace to the jumper. Pitiful 

    This Collingwood documentary is really interesting.

    It's there a dumber footy side? 

    I agree, the umps need to stamp out the pushing after a free kick.. it’s pathetic

    Umps have let Adelaide get away with this niggle all game. Just as they've let Max be tackled in the ruck and Taylor Walker has been allowed to shephard in the marking contest multiple times. Two free kicks for us that quarter is [censored] [censored]

    3 yellow Satans? 

    I was so excited to get a free :(

    Honestly, is there a team with more dumb footballers in the AFL? Unforgivable by Vanders. A goal after the siren would have given us a ton of momentum despite looking rubbish.

    This group wanted to prove themselves. That was bloody ordinary.

    Max shouldn't have played either. Poor leadership. He's getting pantsed and should have sat this one out. It's like when Viney and Jones played as captains when they weren't fit. Leadership is recognising when you're not fit to play.

    Let's hope he can turn it around, because if our blueprint is contested footy, we can't win contested footy if Gawn doesn't touch it and O'Brien gives them first use the whole time and then smashes Max once it hits the ground. I'd be tempted to try Jackson for a spurt.

    WTF is going on with the umpires? In the backs not there, dangerous tackles, maybe but then you have to pay the others. What was that late reversal about?

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
