NON-MFC: Round 11, 2022


Demonland

Recommended Posts

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.

Technically the ump should have reversed the free for dissent 😅

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.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
