Not impossible. Carltank had the chance to do it in 2013!

Good call ?

    Rona just continues to give to Victoria - & interstaters will continue to benefit with home ground advantage.

    That said we're all done with Tioges era - a new one dawns.....

    How was Ryan’s kick to Kennedy judged over 15 m?  - should have been play-on for mine.

    It clearly wasn't. I wouldn't want to buy real estate from those umpires!!

    It went about half as far as the kick marked by Cameron at the end of the Swans - Geelong game which was not paid

    Game No. 5 of this season  decided by bad umpiring in the final minute. It was 8 ms if it was anything.

    You just can't be close near the end of the game to take umpiring out of the equation. double free kicks- again - to eagles. 

    But I thought the tiges looked off esp in forward entries and now don't fear then in September. Dusty trying too hard reminded me of the Dees pre-2021.

    Reiwoldt unsighted when needed. 

    Nic Nat's feeding of his midfield in center  was sublime and Tiges just seemed unable to cope

    Actually there were 3 game results turned by atrocious umpiring decisions this round for a total of 6 so far for the season.
    Adelaide/Saints - Dubious free kick to Thilthorpe  at the death.

    North /GWS - Umpire  failed to pay blatant incorrect disposal by North in front of GWS goal in the dying minutes.
     

    It has been a pattern with Riewoldt this season. In most games starts red hot then disappears.

    I only watched the last five minutes, while I agree about the kick not being 15 metres I also thought Richmond got away with a couple of throws in that period.

    But, but, we’re told umpiring doesn’t impact the outcome.

    Interestingly nobody has focused on the mark itself.....which wasn't in fact a mark!  Whilst he gets his hand under the footy, the belly of the ball is clearly in contact with the grass.  Not that I'm unhappy with the result!

    If the umps called that play on they would be copping flak similar to the Cameron mark. You can see where it was kicked and marked below.

    Must say I thought that at first but I think he had his forearm between the ball and the ground. It was certainly close

    maybe not, but that view shows it was a lot closer to 15m than the view seemed to show on tv

    there were longer ones called play on during the game

    Have always wondered about people who spend so much of their time videoing the game.

    Went to the Soccer World cup in Russia in 2018. People would video games from start to finish.

    Sure a minute here and there but whole matches.

    Whoever would watch them?

    Agred they threw it a few times IMO.  But the Kennedy mark was 60 ish seconds to go and a game changing opportunity.

    • 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 lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
