Considering they're playing to the home audience, the K-Rock one is surprisingly even handed. Don't expect them to get excited but at least they admit the 50 was there, unlike 5AA who would have argued for a free the other way.

    Press play, close your eyes and picture it like you're listening on the wireless. Wonderful!

    Impressed with those, don't know how you did it,  but gus was smart there stood on the outside of the mark and back up a bit forced him to kick it close to the boundary line.

    I just did this. Awesome! And without watching it you hear things you otherwise may not notice. Example, the fake crowd noise is there but you can actually hear our boys let out a huge cheer. You can hear it above the fake crowd cheer.

    On reviewing the footage, almost looked like Brad Close could have made it a double 50m for Lever as he ran into the protected area while Cameron stood on the mark.

    Absolutely.

    I didn't pick that up live, but if lever had made any move to play on it had to be 50 metres. He was basically directly in front of lever

    Prior to this, my favourite goal on replay was Jack Watts goal in 2017 ( Queens Birthday). This is now my official favourite ❤️

    Watts’ 2017 QBD goal was magical. I’ve watched that probably a thousand times - especially during the dark times of our seasons in 2019/2020.

    Before that, Brock McLean’s 2006 Elimination final goal against the Saints was was my favourite.

    Okay so I've now hit psychopath-level viewings of the final 2 minutes, thank you.

    Didn't mind the 3AW one but the ABC call sounded like kids had overtaken the booth to eat their Domino's pizza

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
