We have the Blues and Doggies coming up. ย Anyone with a heart condition should avoid the game.

But first, the Cats at KP.ย  As one sided as a crowd can get!ย ย  Be ready for 'frees from crowd affirmation.'

No crowds helped us with the umpiring in rnd 23 last year.ย  And Max had the Prelim crowd eating out of the palm of his hand.ย  Hostile territory this time.ย

Yes Bulldogs still #1 - 3rd year running ?? Definitely thought Blues would be the challenger.ย 
They often get the โ€œrub of the greenโ€. They definitely got a great run v Saints 21-9 recentlyโ€ฆ then I think broke even on frees with Eagles at the West-Meth-stadium. ย 


Now Hardwick is complaining to the AFL that Nankervis is getting a poor deal from umpires.ย  He is a behind play sniper.ย  Gets away with a lot more than for what he is penalised.

He, Scott and Beveridge are perpetual whingers.

I'm so glad our club just gets on with it or if they do complain to the AFL (which they have every reason to about how Max, Clarry and Petracca are targetted) they don't announce it all over the media.ย 

I wonder if the stricter head-high interpretation will affect the Dogsโ€™ advantage? Judging by his opposition to it, Bevo may well think so.ย

And imagine how it would change if they decided to crack down on throwing.

Do you think Hardwick, Scott and Beveridge are perpetual whingers for no specific reason, or are they calculated comments to generate a response, whether that is from the umpires, the AFL or their own players? For example, in Hardwick's case, I think he's speaking to his own players trying to develop an "us versus them" mentality. With Beveridge, I think it's a way of telling his players that he has their backs. Scott, on the other hand, is, I think, addressing the AFL hierarchy. In other words, I think all three use "whinging" as a deliberate tactic.ย

Maybe, but there are other ways of doing those things without challenging umpires about free kicks to/denied their players.

Bulldogs 18 to 7 free kicks after 1/4 time.ย 

Dees only had 1 free kick from Qtr time to just before 3/4 time.ย 

Not the reason we lost but the Bulldogs are kissed on the [censored] in the free kicks department.ย 

It all helps.

We failed to finish the but equally the umpires helped them gain momentum.

Umpiring remains blight on the game

Dogs extend their lead on the free kick ladder. Sickening to think theyโ€™ve had over 100 more free kicks than the Tigers. Seriously corrupt.

I hate the Dogs. Have zero respect for them as a club. Theyโ€™re cheats. Theyโ€™re western suburbs scum. Theyโ€™re a blight on the game. OUTSIDE 5 YA RECKON

I say it wouldnโ€™t be any worse off without them

Well i won't go that far, after last nights performance i can't say i disagree.

It is actually not the umpires fault, it's AFL house and their interpretation of how they want the game played. But the most frustrating thing about the interpretation is, how do you have wildly different interpretation in the one game>

I.E- Demons hold the ball Dogs donโ€™t.?????

Jeez we have had the second lowest amount of frees in the comp 1 more than Tiges and we have given away the second least number of frees in the comp after Dogs.!! Are the umps scared of Bevo.!!

See the Bulldogs fly up

It's not so much the frees they receive, but all the ones that aren't paid against them for holding the ball and throwing.

Not sure whether its been said, and it is quite obvious, but we have received the least # free kicks in the comp and its only our ability to have the 2nd least freekicks against (#1 bulldogs) that puts us in the middle of the table.ย 

No wonder i hate umpires.ย 

ย 

It's a slightly different perspective when you take the differential out of it.

Club Free kicks for Club Free kicks against
Crows 433 Tigers 436
Blues 424 Swans 422
Lions 419 Kangaroos 420
Bulldogs 409 Saints 420
Swans 409 Crows 412
Magpies 405 Lions 407
Cats 399 Hawks 404
Bombers 394 Suns 402
Hawks 392 Dockers 393
Dockers 390 Power 391
Suns 389 Cats 387
Kangaroos 391 Eagles 387
Giants 378 Magpies 382
Saints 378 Bombers 382
Eagles 376 Giants 373
Tigers 367 Blues 367
Power 364 Demons 359
Demons 361 Bulldogs 324

Dogs would legitimately be a bottom four team without the blatant favor of the umpires.ย

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™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 wasnโ€™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 ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
