Frost free was rubbish and the ensuing 50 was worse. Garbage

Feel bad for Frosty. He looked so genuinely shattered. 

 

Hawthorn are getting their goals the right way. Not from frees.

Lol did umpire 14 pay the 50m penalty because Gunston pointed to some dark clouds in the horizon?

Umpire 22. Williamson 


Doghouse, Myers and that Staging Hawkins pukeworthy. Parfait is soft.Gawd I hate Jeelong

The AFL have absolutely no idea how to manage change. The number 1 thing you need to do is ensure your stakeholders know what is going to happen when the change takes effect, so they're not confused and disenfranchised when the change does happen.

I’m pretty sure No14 inside the centre square  paid the 50 for abuse against Gunston after he pointed to the scoreboard.


This umpire respect nonsense has gone way too far. Nobody watches the footy to see what the damn umpires are doing. They're getting way too involved these days. So frustrating.

Look at what you've done to me Gil, you have me going for the Hawks!!!

It’s official folks

my hatred for the Cats has overtaken my hatred for the bombers

it was a good 25 years but time to move on

If it stops junior umpires from being abused/intimidated at kids games I dont mind it.. 


I am in shock over the PATHETIC over the top Umpire interpretations of these Rules 

I HATE BOTH THESE TEAMS

so there is absolutely no bias here

It is Pathetic. 
And People wonder why attendances are down

Pity most of the conversation is about the umps and the rules today, this is actually a cracking game.

This game is so hard to watch, with atrocious umpiring turning the game with their dubious decisions. How many Cat goals from free kicks?  It’s so good to watch our boys play team football.

Been a good game to watch

The Geelong big blokes up forward might end up being the difference (already 6 goals combined)

4 goals direct from free kicks this quarter for the Cats

Lingy can GAGF saying that’s a clear push in the back


I hate Geelong. 

another goal from a free.

Let’s not get ridiculous now Dub. Heat of the moment comment. Have a nice cup of tea and a little rest and you’ll come to your senses. Remember… ESSENDON 🤮

I'm with DUB WCW. I probably interchange between Geelong and Essendon. But I can't abide by the run Geelong have always had with the umps.

 

Hawkins gave away 50 just hanging around in the protected zone. No worries mate.

Can Selwood dispose of the ball legally any more? Last 5 minutes all I've seen are throws, scoops and tunnels.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
