The Arc. Wow, how embarrassing for the AFL. Vlastuin clearly missed the ball, you could see daylight between his fist and the ball. Arc too scared to overrule.  Whately will go nuts.

    Yep, will probably get a fine for that but honestly deserves weeks.

    In a fair system he would get at least a week but as we know it's not a fair system.

    Thought it would have been a 50m at least, happened after the whistle for the first infringement.

    Pretty uninspiring game so far, hopefully the Saints make a game of it in the second half.

    Poor quality game tonight. Low tackle count and bar a few minutes of Shia Bolton magic it’s been a snooze fest.

    The AFL is still amateur in this regard. Could decide a flag and it’s not good enough. 
    if the technology is not there, stick with the goal ump

    Just had a meal at a friends house.  They are mad Richmond.  Except for the wife.  The wife of the family invited us around not realising richmond were playing in a knock out final.  I said to mate when I walked in, sorry mate, we'll eat and get the hell out of your hair.  Left at half time.  Got home and whacked on the internet and jumped on here to Demonland.  Because thats all we've got to feed the Dee bug.  Emotions rush back to me about losing those Cairns games.  Could have been more or less locked in in the finals with a week or two to play.  We [censored] up this year.  Still bloody hurts.

    Watch the AFL say it was a correct decision. They hate any criticism.

    As Daisy said I can’t that getting weeks. It was a high tackle but the damage was done by Jones landing awkwardly. No justification for a suspension that I can see

    The original idea of the video review was for obvious/clear mistakes. Umpires call was the correct call by ARC

    Absolutely disgrace to say that was inconclusive 

    We could all see it at home

    Saints bought players failing badly. Brad Hill scared sh-tless. Marshall their best by a mile.

    Kent did well there

    This is a damp squib. Richmond haven’t had to get out of second gear.

    Looking forward to one of Geelong or Collingwood getting knocked out tomorrow.

  • Quote

    Hopefully tomorrow nights match is better. This one has been a fizzer. Saints have kicked themselves out of it.

    Such horrible skills from the saints. 

    the tigers are happy to sit back let them attack. When they get within 4 goals they get one and relax again.

    He slung him from around the neck...that's where the damage was done.

    He also landed awkwardly because of the slinging motion of the tackle...

    ...by the way who thinks we might have picked the right Freo wingman?

    Nowhere near the cost but much greater value.

    2 of my 3 most disliked players playing tonight, Lynch and Cochin, both snipers. The other is Stringer.

    Is it true Carlisle missed the match due to his wife having a baby?? Wow

    Terrible game, eps. saints kicking at goal, robbed themselves of any chance.

    But you can see from the outset they could not handle the pressure that tigers bought to the game, could not adjust to the higher tempo as a team.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
