Brave by sparrow 

He was quieter that term, but I like what I've seen.  Brave, has some zip, neat user of the footy.  He has a future.

[Demonland 73,266]

23 frees to 11. 

 Add all the ones we’re not getting. Worst I’ve seen in a long time and I am an expert at complaining about umpires.

Free kick count now 23-11

Looking forward to razor ray getting on radio and saying the [censored] count should have been 28 - 5

[Jaded No More 68,974]

These two teams won’t be contesting anything other than spoons anytime soon. 

[titan_uranus 25,050]

The umpiring is appalling.

But we're still our own worst enemies.

The ball was largely in our forward half that quarter but we kicked 1.3.

Kudos to Oliver for improving his game from last week. Bursting from stoppages, breaking free from tackles, it's been a really important step in the right direction.

Lever and May have been huge.

So many passengers though.

This is a joke and not a word from the commentary. Eddie would have popped a vein if this was against Collingwood. 

Their not interested.

I’ve never seen a game with so many stupid soft free kicks given while missing the absolute obvious ones. It’s extraordinary.

Yeah but they go to the crows every time.

Not sure y we always give away frees for high tackles. It's like they don't know the rules. 

Surely taking the [censored]...

 

[YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,711]

This is worse than a week in the hole.

[Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,786]

I probably missed heaps of comments on this but...

Leaver got 2 hands an a chest on the ball, it bounved off and was grabbed by Himellberg

Paid a mark to Himellberg... WTCF!!

[Tom Dyson 1,633]

We need a royal commission into umpiring at Melbourne games. FMD. 

also, am i the only one that finds that whole commentating team really annoying and frankly, obviously biased. 

[Rodney (Balls) Grinter 10,925]

23 free kicks to 11

[Devil In Disguise 2,278]

Umpiring is something else

 You can't touch a Crows player in & not get them high. FFS

[chook fowler 19,665]

May and Lever really shone in that quarter. Gus also has lifted. Melksham conspicuous by his absence - again. Oliver and Viney very good.

[Elegt 872]

This umpiring is terrible.  Funnier thing is that Melbourne has been worse

This game is mind blowingly horrible. Just. Horrible. 

Goodwin is not the future and neither are some of our players. This is meant to be a response game, its horrendous. Blame umpires all you like but we putrid.

[jnrmac 20,205]

Frees 23 to 11

Appalling bias

 

 

[loges 6,767]

Wo's going to stand up and wi us the game

[GCDee 3,199]

The crows players literally get a free anytime we lay a tackle. They just throw their head back at the bottom of a pack and the umps fall for it every time. 

They will get over 30 free kicks tonight... Pretty much the same amount of free kicks for two teams combined for an entire match.

High tackle? For what!??

What is the High tackle rule? Is it contact above the ankles? This is doing my head in. That must about 6 high tackle frees to the Crows so far and none of them were dangerously head high in any way. Then we have had numerous in the backs that were nothing of the sort.

[640MD 3,482]

Well it’s going to need a 4 quarter performance.      But we are not playing too bad.  Just kept it up.   Hope they do not run out of puff. !!
