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 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
