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: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
