So Port defender deliberately kicks it to space and goes out.(no insufficient called), Port ruckman deliberately hits it out from a contest (not called), then the most contentious of them all gets called deliberate. The only thing umpires are consistent with is their inconsistency.

    Dogs tried for 10 mins. 

    easy 8 goal win coming up for Port

    Dogs are the most mentally fragile team in the league

    Tasty game over in Adelaide. If Port get up the Dogs will probably need to win 10 of their last 14 games just to fall into the 8.

    I’ve got a conspiracy theory:

    When there is a Goal review (where the goal umpire asks for help from upstairs) quite often the resulting decision from upstairs is made almost instantly after the TV commentators have just given their summation / opinion of what they believe the correct decision will be. It’s literally a couple of seconds. And they’re always now on the same page, having same decision on what has occurred – but in previous years they never used to be.

    So BT is the ARC? God save us all

    Great to see the faux handpass after a mark / free being called play on.  
    And even better a free against the Dogs for holding the ball. 
     

    PS and now a second one.  🤗🤗🤗

    Pity it isn’t paid consistently.

    Dogs have received 3 frees in marking contests in last 5 mins, where marks would have been paid

    Still frees are PA 16 : 11 WB

    Good to see Dogs getting a raw deal, but this is pretty blatant

    Despite how putrid Port has been for most of this year, Sam Powell-Pepper has been just about the only one of them who hasn't dropped off, and has actually turned into a useful footballer rather than just a battler.

    Dogs defence looking very short.  Worth playing balls against them?

    The only thing the Dogs have been freed from since the Grand Final, is the ability to win.

    Geezzz . Port could / should have buried the Dogs by now.

    Just saw 4 throws by the Dogs in a space of seconds not penalised.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
