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.

    Will be interesting to see if the tigers can shut out girlong in second half.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
