Trash umpiring costs Brisbane the win at the end. What a surprise!

Sick of umpiring being so inconsistent and impacting the outcome of games so much!

    Absolute robbery. Missed throws from Geelong cost Brisbane ~18 points tonight from my count.

    Most nuffies don’t understand holding the ball and don’t understand the concept that a player only needs to “attempt” to dispose of the ball of the player has NOT had prior opportunity.

    However, that non-decision at the end was the wrong call and cost Brisbane the game.

    That’s right, if no prior then just has to be an attempt. 

    But Blicavs had prior, taking the player on in the tackle. 

    Arguably didn’t matter as that was possibly a throw too.

    All the focus will be on that final decision but it should not be lost that two Throwlong goals in the third quarter should have been disallowed because of ... throwing and handing the ball to a team mate.

    I am livid and I don't care. Imagine if this was Melbourne down there, which we will be at the tough end of the season.

    Brissie got by far the better of umpiring most of the night. Cats deserved the win.

    Brisbane should make a formal complaint to the AFL about that incorrect disposal non decision. What a disgrace.

    I thought Geelong were also gifted decisions after Brisbane hit the front, that got them back into it. Ridiculous and if Brisbane was us I would be more than livid.

    Geelong led for 93% of the game. Deserved the win overall.

    Brisbane only have themselves to blame for a garbage first quarter.

    Geelong also had Danger, Duncan, Menegola and Cameron out. I can’t stand them but full credit to them for the win.

    I amstarting to hate geelong as much as the filth. The umpires are a disgrace and that decision not to penalise blicavs or whatever he is called was bordering on corruption. Selwoood again ducks his head and gets a ridiculous 50m penalty.

    Lions only have themselves to blame ... they were asleep for the first quarter and a half.  They were soft. 

    If they had have come out ready to play right from the start they would have won

    Control what you can control

    Playing away from home you're always likely to cop an iffy decision.  So take the luck out of it or pay the consequences

    Fagan should rip into them for their lack of application in the first half rather than focus on one iffy decision.  That's what a good coach would do

    Disgraceful umps tonight.   Cats kept getting a helping hand many through non-decisions eg, throws, HTB, incorrect disposal and 50 meters x 2 (Hawkins) then the Blizarv one at the end.

    The Selwood blatant throw out of the middle.  There was another one handed shovel not called by another cat at one point.  The HTB that wasnt HTB where a Cat missed everything and Rich kicked in.

    The mis match on Hawkins was glaring.  I wonder if it might have been  better to sacrifice a forward (Hipwood?) as a spare down back in those situations, leaving Joe & Cameron one out up forward with more space to run in to.

    Umps take care of Geelong no matter where the game is played.  As we will see again first hand in two weeks.

    I kind of agree 'Macca', but those poor decisions were the icing on the cake and put a dampener on the night for me.

    If Brisbane had of won it would have been a steal.

    Fagan was part of the problem (needs to rip into himself), he was badly out coached by Scott all night and capped it off beautifully by allowing a rookie to contest Hawkins 20 out from goal in the dying stages that resulted in a goal.

    The game was played on Geelong's terms and the Lions never got any quick ball movement going...yes it's a bit harder on the narrow Kardinia Park oval but they (Lions) didn't even try to break the game open.

    They got back into it with a couple of individual efforts (McLugage) and some tired old Cat legs...

    On tonights showing I'm not sure either of these teams are a threat this season.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
