Must have been a message from HQ for the commentators to talk up Ugle-Hagan tonight...

It's a deliberate tactic.  By moving that far away, they are not subject to the "Stand" rule.

Of course, it allows their opponent a clear 5 -  10 metre run forward.

The Dogs coaching team must think it is worth it.  I'm not so convinced.

I don’t see much difference between ceding 5-10 meters or having to stand on the mark.

Seems like a neutral trade off. 

My big fear last year was that the dogs would get this free kick treatment in the gf. So glad we smoked them and umps weren't as one sided as tonight.

So if you move back a meter or two then it Must be worth it

I'm not sure what the cut-off point is where you are deemed to be no longer standing the mark.

 

Credit to the Dogs for their defensive work, Swans’ forward structure is a hot mess at the moment. 

 

What a dreadful game of footy. The swans kicking id deplorable and dogs not much better. No real pressure as well.

….. but they have Buddy 😮😱🤔

Don't understand all the Tim English hate. He has been good tonight in both attack and defence. 

Swans the best ball movement team??

yeah nah

No hate from me. He’s a good ordinary ruckman. WA is welcome to him so long as they leave Jackson the unicorn alone.

Bulldogs 17 frees to 7

Not unusual for the team smashing the contested possessions to win the [censored] count. Putting their head over it


Dogs going to [censored] the bed here. Swans much fitter. Swans to win by 30+

21 free kicks to7.

 

Seems to be completely different interpretations here depending on the jumper colour, bizarre inconsistency 

Same with every Bulldogs game. Been happening for years. Won them a flag 6 years ago. It’s ridiculous.

Free kick after free kick for the Dogs

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
