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

they're top four now

I’m talking finals. It means little right now

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

Drop kick, drop punt? Careful you dont mix them up commentators! Oops! Long silence from the others…


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: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
