Darcy Moore might have done his knee here. Looks bad for him

Moore done for the season I reckon. There goes Collingwood's chances.

 

David Noble has to get sacked this week. Feel for the guy but Norf are truly a miserable proposition. 

I doubt it.... looked like a bruised knee (hyperextension) rather than something serious

    Finally the Pies are shown to be the average outfit they are

    I think you might be underselling how good the Pies are.

    Suns robbed of  a couple of holding the ball frees at the death within scoring range.

    Collingwood have had so many tight games go their way. To put it into perspective they are 6th on the ladder - but 11th for percentage.

    Pies 6th on 10 wins and a percentage of 106. Winning a lot of tight games. Can't continue you'd think.

    Dew not happy with the umps. Fair enough I’d say as well shocking non decisions.

    How about Took with only eyes for the ball, getting his legs smashed out from under him in that last 4 minutes.... "play on" ....hilarious.

    What a joke the umps have turned this game into through their ineptitude.  And the AFL keeps backing them in with their constant "nothing to see here!"

    I'm watching Wimbledon. But flicking in between.

    Will be interesting to see how these older Geelong players get up in 5 days time

    It looks like they have just had the bye renamed Norf

    Suns stuffed that up completely. Umps didn't help their cause

    Seems like you can now take 3 opponents on and get wrapped up in a tackle, make no attempt to get rid of it but as long as you don’t let the ball spill, it’s ball up. Then with 3 minutes to go a Suns bloke barely takes possession and gets stripped of the ball in heavy traffic and it’s incorrect disposal. Glad I am not an umpire.

    I’d say Noble will be lucky to be coach by the end of next week.

    No coach can survive a series of hidings this bad.

    as was the case with our game, the interpretation of holding the ball only applied to one team. 

    The adjudication of prior opportunity and incorrect disposal has been bafflingly inconsistent today.

    Gees North Melbourne are in a mess, hard to see any light.

    Is Noble worse than Neeld?

    No. I feel (for different reasons) that he's the fall guy for an inept club much the same as the late Dean Bailey. Hiding to nothing stuff. For starters, their recruiting has been atrocious

    Okay Melbourne won but apart from that all I have seen today is disgraceful umpiring. Suns got robbed blind in the last quarter.

    Make the umpires professional. Pay then top dollar for a top result

    They play North, Adelaide and Essendon for their next three. I hope they don’t but it looks like they keep winning, I think you’re right though, it won’t continue being tight!

    They don’t deserve top dollar with those efforts. First they need to be made accountable for their performances, then comes the pay rise if they deserve them (by the looks of it, they seem to have already pocketed some extra cash from the filth and SA filth on tonight’s performances)

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
