Technically the ump should have reversed the free for dissent 😅

Well actually no. The 50 is given for time wasting, running off the mark, dissent or a further infringement against the team with the free kick. None of those existed. There is no time

Thank god for that. Keeps us 2 games clear of them and Freo play Brisbane next week.

Free kick was soft, the seconds tick down, the noise so loud, it's not beyond the realms of possibility that the Swans player didn't hear it before kicking into the stands. 

Technically a 50 but perhaps par for the course.

BT has completely lost the plot. Free kick was soft anyway, 50 would have been controversial after the siren went but it probably should have been paid. Correct call I though though.

What a bizarre explanation by the umpire - "not unreasonable that he didn't hear the whistle"- doesn't usually matter as far as I have noticed.

And the Stand rule relies completely on hearing the umpire

was a 50 every day of the week

hilarious!

I get the common sense thing because the swans player probably wouldn't have known it was a free, but it should have been a 50. Would have been paid at any other time. I mean you just have to be aware of what is happening. On another note someones just scored a free footy in the crowd. 

The swans did do some stupid thigs tonight being a bit undisciplined. 

Interesting to hear dimma in the presser.

Yes. Is that the difference?

Yes because once the siren goes the ball/time clock is dead.  Kicking the ball away is considered a free for time wasting.  Kicking the ball away after the siren?  Not time wasting .... no free kick (or in this case a 50).

I'm pretty sure that the ump was checking online for the time line...

The Tiges cost themselves the game anyway, should have put it away.

On the other hand Richmond fans are seething right now and that makes me laugh.

That’s not the point. Viney was suspended because of the action and how it looked. The AFL want to protect the integrity of the game. Franklin threw a punch. If they are consistent, he gets a week at least

Footy has to the most weirdly officiated game in the world 

the umpires factor in what players may or may not hear to their decisions. Madness

It should have been a fifty but it probably makes up for all the stupid umpiring decisions the tigers got through the night, I did not see anything from those 2 sides that would worry me.

The clock stops when the ball goes out of bounce, and a 50 can be paid. The siren sounding is irrelevant.

Yes they might have confused those in yellow and black as an umpire committing the dissent!

So if a Sydney player had entered the protected area when that final kick was being taken, no 50?  Misread that.  Disagree though

Dissent only exists when a free is paid against you in the AFLs eyes

Brad Scott should be worried about his mid season performance review 😂

I tell you who’s about to get robbed after that. Me and everyone else that needs Prestia for 25+ possessions in a multi, they still haven’t added his kick after the siren onto his stats.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
