Umps ruined it as usual that last htb, my my would be more mental than normal as a port supporter. Tigers defense starting to look really good. Grimes and Vlaustin makes for a very different team.

Fairly entertaining game with two average mid-table teams

hitouts 42-18 but Port won the clearances 

footy is weird

Looking forward to a comment from Caroline Wilson in regards to the crowd of 21,000 tonight, in which the home side has the most members in the AFL.

This is the same Wilson who bagged Melbourne for getting 29,000 against Freo, which was the highest ever crowd between those two sides at the MCG.

So true, when i watch games i'm not invested in is when i think it really has changed (for the worse)

I will never believe umpires are corrupt unless factually reported, or that the AFL plays favorites, but I do think they have biases that come out occasionally and i do think there is memo of the week. 

As for getting consistency I would back the umps to be small teams/crews, that practice together and do match sim with teams in the same crew, they will officiate with to help standardize their decision making. Variations between umpires in game is infuriating.

Clown 26 - again. Sound familiar?

I only watched a bit of the game, yet I saw him make at least 6 mistakes and all went Tigers way. Carey was clearly frustrated and said so.

I think this bloke must be a Tigers’ fan.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
