    Ginnivan paid a free for the same thing Spaz got called holding the ball last night. Corrupt or incompetent?

    Hang on, isn't the comp run by the AFL?

    The Shockers are the real thing. They could well be top 4 later in the year. 
     

    I love Sports Bars in Asia. :)

    The umpires were right onto Weightman's tactics to milk frees and didn't pay him a couple.

    Today the umpires were right onto Ginnivan who also missed out on a few = some which were really there.

    Good to see them coming down on it especially young kids who make a habit of it.

    I see on the AFL website McCrae is going to get clarification around ginnivan. So guess what will get paid next week

    Every now and again a footballer comes along who lights up the competition, Michael Frederick is that sort of player, usually they don't burn for long, but they are so enjoyable to watch

    Freo appealing for HTB against Bailey while he spins around and kicks a goal

    lol

    grabbing the jumper isn't a tackle

    Freo peaking too early, not possible to sustain this level until last week in September

    Ah, yes it is. If a player has the ball and you hold the jumper, and he does nothing to release it - it is holding the ball.

    Holding the jumper without tackling while the player stands easily? not HTB

    Sorry, but it is. Just as holding a jumper when a player has not got the ball is holding the man, holding a jumper of a player with the ball and the player does not dispose of it = holding the ball. Always was, always has been.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      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.
