Watching GWS v Essendon.

Hogan is really annoying. MFC put up with his petulant behaviour for too long.

Hate both sides, but probably Essendon slighty more.

 

 

At last, some joy this weekend! Watching those whingeing cheats lose!

 

Yes well done giants putting those bummers out of the 8. Listening to Ed try to give reasons for there loss was annoying.

Just saw on the news Franklin elbowing an opponent with a wild backward swing - “may get a week if unlucky”.  
Imagine if one of ours did that - “4-6 weeks”!

Corruption reigns??

Yeah but Sydney plays the bummers next week & he always cuts them up. I don't want him to miss even though it was dumb


You beauty! Bombers [censored] the bed when 20 points up is just what I needed. No excuses this time cheats!

Essendon are very rapidly gaining us list wise....

Why didn't you just come out and say what you wanted to say, that they've "gone past us"?

Pity they ended up losing and making your argument sound even dumber.

Hopefully the Giants can hang on, I love watching Whitfield play. 

Would love more seeing him in rednblue 

what happened?.......merrett (20) and parish (15) combined for only 35 disposals. neither of them have had figures that low all year 


Going into a hub was always going to affect the Bombers. How many times can you get a vaccine shot before it starts to look suss? Obviously had to wind things back a bit.

Not quite sure where to post this - Buddy a pretty hard elbow to the (usually) sacrosanct head =1 week.

How many would, say, May or McDonald get for that?  2-3 would be my guess. 
 

But there is no corruption or even just bias in the MRO rulings, I am sure. 

Not at all shocked that Buddy got off. Appears to get a better run at it than most.

Example number 94123 of the MRP system being broken.

An elbow to the head deemed serious enough to be a reportable offence is worthy of a fine, but a perfectly executed run-down tackle results in a two week ban, whilst contesting the football has the AFL sending you directly to the Tribunal.

Utterly, completely, farcically, broken.

I’ve got to admit TA, it’s become a total lottery. 
And on a separate note, what happened to kicking in danger? It appears to no longer be called.

Why Bother to even have a MRP or Tribunal. That Franklin elbow was intensional. 
That is just corrupt 

Franklin has been given the Red Carpet ever since he had to leave Victoria

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

  • 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.
