Carlton's last kick into the forward 50 gets stuffed up every time.

    So good to see 50's being paid for time wasting.  eg, falling over the ball and not giving it back


    I tell ya what, neither team is winning a flag this year. 
    Carlton are at least hanging in and giving themselves a sniff. Richmond look old.

    Free to Martin?! Seriously it is a tough watch at times.

    Over the shoulder 

    but soft


    There was nothing close to a free kick to Dusty. 

    As usual the commentary team don't even mention it.  the kick to dusty came from another free as well.   such BS

    With all the momentum with Carlton, the umps could well have decided this game

    Carlton fans look feral

    ...even alongside Richmond fans ? 🤔

    pretty sure you're allowed to reach over your opponents shoulder to try to spoil.

    not having a go at you, I'm just annoyed.

    Full disclosure - i've got money on the blues.

    At least Nick didn’t look like a smashed crab when  he played. Jack is the biggest drama queen. Just calm down Jack, people are literally dying in Ukraine. You just got tackled.

    Really liked Bolton and the way he is able to get involved in the game from HB into the forward line and damage the scoreboard. I know he took a few seasons to develop but hope one of our small forwards can develop into a similar player.

    he'll have to console himself with being 3 times the player Jack is

    What is it with so many poor free kicks being awarded for minimal/normal physical contact? Are the umpires being directed to take the physical risk out of the game?

    • If you even touch a person with a free kick or mark = 50m. A couple last night, and more tonight
    • Williams manning up on Martin = freekick. What!?!?!
    • A  player trips over an opposition player who is almost stationary on the ground and is awarded a tripping free. 

    Did I miss the memo or can I no longer guess the rules?

    By the way, a good contest Tiges v Blues, but nothing more. No killer blow for any team so far.

    Agree. Defenders have a tough job

    3 goals to the left of screen and 14 to the right so far. That’s the only observation I have out of tonight.

    Well let's see where Carlton are at.

    If they come back and win against an experienced side then Voss has had an impact.

    Along with lots of new players with “Vissy ambassador” roles who have come to Carlton.

    How much are the Blues paying Martin? Ouch.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
