It seems the umps will pay holding the ball for a tackle over the line as well, which they've never done previously.

 

Huge LOLs if we end up snatching this.

It’ll be up there with the time we came from 44 down and beat Geelong in Geelong to win the minor premiership 

 

Lever been an absolute general tonight. Great leader.

Not sure we're doing Weid any favours by playing a half in the reserves and not give him a decent half in this game.


Tomlinson looks at least 2 steps slower than he should be. I wouldn't be playing him in round 1 unless the only alternative is…shudders…Smith.

Yeah that one was up there but nothing could beat coming back from 40 points down in a pre season game against Carlton at Marvel on a Thursday night in front of 15 people.

Nice to have 1 first stringer in to lead the way.

He’s not being impartial he’s been overly negative. It’s unprofessional. 

Lyon tipped against us 90% of the time up until mid last year instead of being patriotic. His success in the footy tipping was more important to him instead of showing loyalty to the boys. He only decided to jump on the bandwagon as a passionate Demon late last year.


This is embarrassing by the umpires. AFL needs to rectify that before the sesson. 

50m penalty for shaking your head while looking at the ground

 

If this is how the game will be umpired this year it will be unwatchable, they expect players to be robots 

I don't care about the result. I'm just glad we know how strictly this "umpire criticism" rule is going to be interpreted. It looks to me like it's a "don't show visible disappointment at anything" rule, which is…a bit too far.


It is now a 50 Meter  penalty for shaking your head.

 

This umpire over correction is rubbish. 
Put them on a pedestal and they’ll milk it for all it’s worth.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
