Hawkins has a history of “carelessly concussing and otherwise injuring opponents faces and heads. 
Of course “accidental” and the head isn’t really all that sacrosanct all the time. 

any news on Mays' injury??

 
 

Is this the same old Melbourne or have we improved. Cats are severely undermanned. It ours to win no excuses really.

    Do the umpires have ANY control over this game.

     

    Absolutely, controlling it perfectly for the Cata comeback

    If we throw away this game we are the same old Melbourne and all supporters might as well switch off for the rest of the season and all future seasons

    Gone to hospital. Whole check/eye looks fractured. Not good.


    How does geelong with less possessions have 30 precent more frees than the other side?

    6 frees more in that qrt made a huge difference.

    Always happens against this yeam. Is it the crowd?

    Goody needs to point out it’s raining and over handballing when not required is silly. We can and should win this. But as always we make it as hard as possible. Cmon dees!!!


    Come on let's change the narrative a bit. It's going to be a workhorse effort

    surely the review committee will look at this

    Fritsch has made 3 mistakes that all cost us goals. Get those right and we’d be at least 3 in front.

    It’s hard to know how difficult it is to mark the ball, but we just dropped 3-4 marks that would have put us in a much better 

    Umpiring a disgrace.

    But we lost our defence structure late in that quarter. For the last smith goal, when we lost the ball we had 3 mids all forward of the contest cheating.   Hopefully Goody resets them at 3 qtr time.

    Some awful decision making / execution that quarter.  The kick from outside 50 on the boundary from Chunk.  Tmac's decision to play on.  Jordan's decision to handball instead of taking the tackle at HF.

    Sprargo's inability to finish at goal earlier.  The kick from Ed on the flank was woeful

    Loved the holding the ball against Oliver in that quarter. It followed about 6 tackles on Geelong players in the same passage of play which were all called a ball up.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • 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?
