I see the AFL have put the work experience kid in charge of choosing the umpires' uniforms again.

Richmond are playing and the umpires are wearing yellow and black.  Genius!

I do not understand this from the AFL. There are clear clashes some weeks between the umpires and one of the teams.

Is there any consideration of the umpires clash for a particular game? Has happened a few times this year. 

They do have different colours. Why not use them?

    The Umpires should wear GREEN every Week

    Standardize it. 
     

    Look at them tonight. It’s Clown ? School

    Cracking Mark!

    only ruined somewhat by a poor call from BT. 

    Aaaand Bolton has marked it.

    Zero excitement for MOTY.

    Richmond good, Jee-long terrible. 

    I'm predicting carnage.

    I hate Lynch, Reiwoldt and Nankervis. I hate Cotchin too. (Yes, I know he's not playing.) And Hardwick of course.

    Shades of Melbourne vs Richmond in that 1st quarter. Richmond's pressure vs us felt like it dropped off late in the 1st and never quite came back. It doesn't seem to have dropped off yet, and the cats haven't composed themselves like Melbourne did.

    Very interesting case study into what the tigers have learned and whether the cats have bothered to learn...

    That Bolton effort has mark of the year wrapped up. What a screamer. He's a fantastic player, been red hot the last 4 games.

    He really is. So loose and fluid in his movements. He can do it all, on the ground and in the air. Still feels to me he’s not getting the media attention he deserves. somehow he’s still not in contract next year.

    Just as Daisy Pearce has said, very similar situation with our game. Will be very interesting to see the Geelong response here. We know how we handled the early heat

    Would kill to have him in a Melbourne jumper.

    Geelong are old , slow and declining.   If they lose they will be 4-4 with Danger still a while away.

    Tigers are making the finals either way.

    So hopefully the Cats lose tonight and their season spirals.  My hate for them is strong.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
