What was that last 50 for?

Trac got disappointed and the umpire didn't like that, especially when Trac looked at the umpire.

    Shaking your head = 50 

    Shaking your head and staring at ground = 6 week suspension

    Looks like it’s mandatory to smile when you get a decision against you! Ludicrous that’s about four 50’s for head shaking.

    This is a Melbourne vs umpires game on steroids. And that is fine. Everyone can see it. We won a flag last year against not just the best teams, but no rub of the green. No umpire or team, or individual can take that from us. Out game plan is designed to just keep playing to win.

    Is anyone really surprised that the AFLs continued tweeking, linked to the incompetence of the senior umpiring panel would lead to the catastrophe that we are witnessing tonight, where a player has lost the right to emotionally respond to a disappointing outcome with facial gesture and body language????

    Lol, wonder how many people are shaking their heads on here while posting about these farcical 50s.

    This is just absolute cr@p. Umpires getting high on their own sense of worth.

    If players can’t do anything even remotely considered demonstrative, then umps shouldn’t be allowed to talk back to the players (needs to go both ways).

    AFL doing a stellar job of trying to get people to respect umpires, with this level of ‘officiating’ going on. Just wait until someone gets done for remonstrating with their teammate and the ump thinking it’s all directed him.

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

    Typical AFL HQ overreaction. Pathetic.

    Small man syndrome will be off the charts this year with the new dissent rule. 

    The whole AFL world will rebel if they get more games like this one.

    8 x 50's in 3/4 is just ridiculous.

    Just when you thought the umpiring couldn't get any worse. The Petracca 50 happens. They are pretty little petals these poor excuses for umpires. Time for Gil to get common sense umpiring. We have been terrible but the difference has been the umpiring. How may 50's have we given away. I thought there couldn't be a worse umpiring game than the Bulldogs game I have now seen it. Carlton aren't that good the umpires have allowed them be great.

    Players know the rules and will just have to get used to this showing frustration. Maybe instead of swearing just let out a yell to vent or swear under your breath.. It's going to be so hard for players that have a bit of a temper. 

    But it needs to be consistent. I do not want to see a Dusty or Selwood or Dangerfield getting a warning or something. After watching tonight every player should now know to just shut up.

    On the money.

    Umpiring like this disgusts people rather than pleasing them.

    Seriously.  These new rule interpretations are just crazy.  Will they be consistently applied throughout the season?

    He's dropped a few marks tonight but nothing wrong with Fritchy's goal kicking. He's a top 50 player for sure.

    The interesting thing is that it was mentioned by a few umpires last year that we were a very respectful team.

    Looks like the frustration is making a difference as Carlton arent getting pinged.

    This is what practice games are for I guess.

    [censored] i hope not. Will only cause more and more supporters to become disenfranchised and drive them away from the game.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
