    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.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
