Let's not get carried away. we've played about 5 mins of good footy.

Another 5mins and it's a 10goal win.

    When a player disposes of the ball to a teammate and try’s to run to link up the next play but is impeded by the opposition player it’s a free plus 50 metre penalty.

    Didn't know that - thanks  👍

    The. Commentator mentioned  the give and receive or the ol soccer one-two. But I never knew that was actually a rule. 

    If we have the ball and I'm about to give it to you but I can't because you're scragged off the ball, what's the point in the free? We already have the ball - hence the 50.

    That's the justification - to prevent "professional" free kicks that stop the team with the ball from attacking.

    Remember when we used to fight and shut down games and be like “oh my god we are a chance” and then the opposition would kick 5 goals in 4 minutes? 
    Good times were had by nobody.

    I just presumed umpire abuse maybe

    Must have been because it was soft to begin with and the ball went straight back to us.

    It's about time we returned the favour.

    Still filthy that we had to sack Neeld because of them.

    Yes I was there. I remember commenting to my friend at I think it was the 12 minute mark of the first quarter that “ gee have you noticed we haven’t had a possession yet?” And I think by then Wines ( who we didn’t draft against everybody’s thinking) had already kicked 2 goals! Have I got the right game? 


    I know it’s early in the season but it feels like the change in holding the ball interpretation has made it more inconsistent than previously. And the insufficient intent rule is horrible.

    although our forward line has been stagnant, I have been happy with how Sam W has presented and taken marks in the centre of the ground... no different to a BBB role, it's the way it goes sometimes... perhaps a bit of late scoreboard cosmetics for him.

    I know imagine where we’d be now if we had just got on the reality bus

    Jackson is on, couple of key marks, backing him for votes by game's end. 

    Viney having a great game.

    Anyone notice Brayshaw leading pre game speech/rev up?

    Discipline is outstanding for a lot of late hits.

    Nearest the pin this will be a 12 goal win

    Everyone having a go (a couple quiet but need to watch again to look for team actions)

    Even so, Weightman doesn’t do what Spargs just did and is hammered in here…. But of balance lad.

    Sorry, I have been critical of Spargo milking things, but clear free. He does act but nothing compared to Weigtman

    Sorry if already covered, but can someone explain that 50m to Langdon for me?

    I get the free for holding, but why the 50?

    He'd passed the ball and was ready to be a run on player for the 1 - 2

    Professional free kick took him out

    They made that 50 abou 10 years ago

    Wines out...did he get a touch?

    he'd only been on the ground 48% of the time so I expect he had an injury that he was trying to run out

    To be fair, that led to Roosy, PJ and subsequently Goody.

    They did us a huge favour

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
