Gil should [censored] off now and take Scott with him.

 

Seriously, the umpiring is making this sport hard to watch, that prohibitive contact against Rioli is a joke, not seen anything like the last two rounds.

 

That is Scott and Gil’s handiwork, clowns should go

So now a player can’t brush past another player. I don’t blame those feral Tigers supporters for losing it. 

I agree that one was absurd, but IF it was used to penalise those cheap jabs and actual punches when the ball is out of play (like those that Max  cops regularly)  it would be a good thing.

This is largely a result of the over technical use of the dissent rule IMO.  The dissent option means umps feel overly protected/special this season and can call any BS call they want/like/feel like knowing that most are unable to push back for fear of another free or 50.

Well done Wankervis haha

The first swing was open-handed, but still contact to his head (face). The second one looked more serious. Let’s see what happens. 

Yes it will be interesting to have a good look at the second one. If it wasn’t a fist Cotchin should be got for over acting. But commentators were straight into excuses.

… except it probably won’t. 

I genuinely don't get the complaining about umpiring in this particular game. They've been okay - not brilliant but not terrible.

Most of the issues have been with both teams doing stupid, undisciplined things. That Nankervis downfield for instance - what does he possibly expect for collecting a player late, unnecessarily, and two metres away from an umpire looking straight at him? Sydney have given away a four goal swing from crazy fake-tough frees.


Ralph Smith looks very handy tonight

The Toiges ensuring they live up to the "most free kicks against" title in this second half

Tigers still up 28-24 though


Why on earth would you handball back inside within 20 meters under that sort of pressure.... just bail it with a tumble punt wide as possible

Crotchin this is on you!!!!!

The umpires are dictating the flow of this game. I wonder who they will encourage to win it

It’s the prohibitive contact frees most seem bothered with

Brayshaw said what we all know " the AFL want Buddy playing"  ANB? couldn't give a rats [censored]

Woweee folks!   What a steal that was

Panic stations for the Tiges. 

Buddy is still a matchwinner on his day.

Buddy needs to retire.

Bloody hell - this has turned out to be a cracking contest.

5 goals to Franklin guarantees that he will NOT be suspended.

 

Buddy's such a gun. I used to hate him. Now I just feel privileged to have seen his whole career.

The last true legendary forward of the VFL/AFL.

Just tried to get Tigers up with a soft free inside 50 ..... and again with a 50 penalty

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
