Lance Franklin has been one of the greats of this era if not the best, I hope he can get to the 1000.

Long way out from finals but it looks like they’re dragging him to the 1000, finals… who knows.

    Several Geelong platers have "clearly shown displeasure" when penalised but no 50s like in our practice game v Carlton.

    Even handedness or softening in interpretation?

    Buddy looked to have some… VERY… choice words for the umpire after that push in the back that he thought was against him… No 50.

    The new interpretation is supposed to address players talking back or questioning umpires, I reckon I’ve seen a lot of that in small doses in round 1 already. Sooo, what’s the point if it isn’t enforced all the time?

    Instead of allowing some players to talk back but not others depending on the umpire, creating a blurred line, the AFL might as well just make a rule that you don’t talk to the umpire during the game. At least then you aren’t leaving it up to interpretation.

    WA has a very narrow definition of a 'close contact':  15 minutes if both not wearing a mask.  So most of the players probably don't have covid but are caught under that definition and have to isolate for 7 days.

    It can happen over and over again to WA teams. 

    So the "Science" is different depending which state you live in 😕

    I just want Geelong to lose. However it is only half time. The swans had a hard game last week and Geelong had a softie against Essenscum.  Second half will tell a story.

    Yes.

    WA teams are exposed as 'close contacts' every time a player gets covid.

    Have we ever tried Weideman at half back?

     Dont think so, would not mind seeing him play there at Casey first.

    OMG Cats just too focussed on Franklin - leave others Heywood Heaney free.

    And looking slower by the minute.   Maybe they shouldn't be scheduled to play after bedtime.

     

    AND again, Henry talks back after in Franklin's back - no 50.

    Brad Close has kicked three goals. He could kick 10 goals and find a cure for cancer and that’s still not what he’ll be remembered for. Not by Dees fans, anyways  😉

    Franklin getting nothing from the umpires. Umpires have no game sense 

    Really Jaded? I've seen him throw the ball twice and not get penalised. And I'm wanting them to win.

    Hard to hate the swans. A tough midfield, buddy up front. P Mc at the back. A great coach. No ego, no nonsense

    i do get annoyed at them being gifted top picks in the draft when being too 4 but that’s my only gripe

    999 goals. Unbelievable. 
    Reckon he gets his 1000th tonight. 
    It’s insane to think we will probably never see anyone kick 1000 goals again.

    I loath Papley but otherwise they’re a bloody good team full of guns. Well coached. Disciplined. Hard at it. They’re fun to watch too unlike the old days of Sydney being boring.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
