I dont know why the sound of the umpires cannot be muted

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.

This is the thing Mazer.

During any game, umpires must see indiscretions that could be given as frees.

How do they decide when/ which to pay?

Hawks gameplan looks good. Playing quickly and moving it with pace through the midfield. Taking the game on. Similar to how Adelaide and Magpies played against us last year.

But… but… it’s Essendon. ESSENDON. 🤮🤮🤮🤮

Yep, and I always thought Essendon would be my true hate. But Geelong has it all:

  • Home town umpiring (thought it may end with televised games, but no)
  • Joel Selwood
  • Forwards who dive
  • Joel Selwood
  • Money thrown at the club because it's in a marginal seat
  • Joel Selwood
  • Shonky land deals
  • Families of footballers employed by Cotton On (see Judd and Visy)
  • Joel Selwood
  • Mogg's Creek
  • Chris Scott's cool beard 
  • The 5 or so chairs provided to opposition supporters

But it's a TELEVISION INNOVATION

All TELEVISION INNOVATIONS are Good Things and can't be changed back.

Another great TELEVISION INNOVATION is the count down clock which adds nothing and only kills tension in a tight match,

Its a shame this game is becoming primarily about the umpiring, otherwise the game has been good to watch.

After Hawkins gave away the 50m penalty for infringing the protected area, he demonstrated with his hands out. It should have been another 50.

Absolutely.... makes it a certain goal and possible outcome changer

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
