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.

    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: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
