I'm a little bit interested in why the Dogs have been deserted by the umps the last 3 weeks  after 6 years of nothing but love. I did post a few weeks back that I thought the AFL wanted Brisbane and Port in the top 4. Looks like it may just happen, but at the time I thought it was us that was being assisted out.

Good question. I think your hypothesis above has legs. 

Above I suggested the hypothesis in bold:

I’ve watched bits and pieces of the Dogs games the last two weeks, and one thing I noticed is that they didn’t seem to be getting a helping hand from the umpires like they did in the game against us. And it makes a big difference.  
 

Today, for example, the free kick count was 23-15 in favour of Port. And last week it was 14-11 in favour of the Hawks. Our game was 25-11 to them!
 

Perhaps the umpires have noticed the talk about their huge free kick advantage and are trying to balance it out (a little) before season ends. 
 

They’re other reasons why they’re down and losing, but I think this has contributed. 

 

And LD has hypothesised that it relates to us:

My mfcss is playing up with the idea of the umps stiffing the dogs so as to us playing port.

Must win tonight.

In some ways we can test these hypotheses next week. If the umpires revert to favouring the dogs then it’s an indication that it’s either hypothesis 1 or 3. That they wanted another interstate team in the top 4 and not that they were trying to correct their biased umpiring earlier in the year. 😆

 
 

This is a good game to watch but not much defending going on. It's not finals footy

Might need another decimal point on that percentage graphic in the corner of the screen


Leaving aside the question of matchups, Roffey and Pert will be pretty chuffed to get that minor premiership cash injection into the club and it's facilities. What is it like 600-800k or so?

Amazing how many times Brisbane have been 4th and then dropped back to 5th today. Currently 3 points adrift of the double chance.

This must be torture for the Dogs fans 😂

 

The Brisbane benevolent game..

What a joke..

Remines me of watching the live ladder in the last round back in 2017.

Yep .... thinking the same ... that match was W.Coast v Adelaide. Adelaide were a much better side (finished top of ladder?), but I think they rested players for that match.

I think Bulldogs will miss out on 4th in the same way that we missed out on 8th that year. Can't rely on other teams!!!

gawd, those awful memories of thinking jake lever's first action as a demon was failing to clear d50 with a rushed kick, giving it straight to liam ryan, who slotted it out and pushed us out of finals...

Go eagles. That was hard to type but I would rather play the dogs or port than bears.

Would prefer to play finals locked in Perth where the WCE didn't make the 8...

we dont want them to win just get within 20 points. 

Considering West Coast don’t like travelling and have a lot out this is a pretty good effort. 


Gee their four goals away from 4th and in danger of maybe losing. The team in 8th would be worried as well.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
