GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs North Melbourne

Featured Replies

Disgraceful from the umpires, absolutely disgraceful.

In that last passage: Petracca was held in the marking contest, then possibly tripped in the tackle, then Goldstein ducked, then Zurhaar ducked.

Tomlinson's getting well beaten by Larkey. Real problem there.

All four of our behinds should have been goals (maybe Pickett the exception). Trac kicks his and we lead. He missed, now we're two goals behind.

Make no mistake. They are a bottom 4, maybe bottom 2, side. They are awful. But we will lose this game if we don't lift.

 

Frees: 3 for, 10 against.

Just sloppy and undisciplined on our part. And costly.

 

Umpiring [censored] awful. Goodwin has [censored] this game up by playing Gawn against Adelaide. We have a fight on our hands.

North look horrible. What's the go with us giving up frees every time the my have the ball? Tidy this up and we win by 6 - 8 goals.


Harmes is rubbish. Either play him in the midfield or don't play him at all.

Umpire need to be taken out the back and shot

Harmes.... not a defender.... Tomlison... not a bloody defender!!! Goody and selection committee get a grip.

Every week we all say our skills are rubbish, again if we could kick straight and find a target we’d be in front.

 

Umpire 31 has not paid us a free in 5 quarters so far. Disgrace.


WTF is Jones playing? Zero possessions and zero imput.

We look a little soft out the middle, without Viney.

 

That will teach Goodwin that Melbourne can’t complain about the umpires 

When will they open their eyes and realise it's DUCKING. 

Umpiring is terrible but something is wrong with us. I'm getting tired of hearing every week how bad the umpiring is we need to look at why this is happening and look within as well. I refuse to believe every umpiring group we have has it in for us.

The majority of the 10 against weren't there.

Examples: the reversal on Harmes, the "whatever it was" against Pickett, the two high tackles in the final chain.

Add to that the obvious HTB missed in our forward line before Pickett's goal and the hold on Petracca in the final minute.

There is some ill-discipline and stupidity though: vandenBerg and Harmes the principal offenders.

Those last two high free kicks when they both ducked into it were just incredible. Resulted in a goal for them.

Norf are atrocious we should be destroying them.

Good to see the kangas generate their shots from fks.

[censored] me, bow do u got from.petracca getting leffed to dubious high fks.

Mindboggling

Tomlinson is not a KPD. Bring back O'Mac.

What is it with us? Do they hate us? Trac tripped, that [censored] was holding the ball and Goldstein ducked. All blatant. This is [censored]. 


We are making this hard on ourselves but my god this umpiring is an outright disgrace.

After Tommy's last effort i'm wondering about his Bin...

3 effective disposals @ 43% (30% off AFL average), 2 Contested marks (1 inside 50), two 1%ers, 1 tackle in four quarters, 2 score involvements, 2 turnovers, 0 intercepts and 0 goals at 91% game time.

Will need to be a miraculous turnaround.

Preaching to the choir rusty. 

That was horrible umpiring.

Harmes gave away two goals  being silly and fumbly again

 

Not an umpire basher but [censored] me. West coast got 14 free kicks all game AT HOME. North have 10 to qtr time.

Agree, the frees are there even if a few are pretty soft. Tidy up this part of our game and keep moving the ball quickly and directly a x we will smash them.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.
