    Have the boundary umpires been told to interpret the ‘vibe’ the last few weeks? Balls that are a metre out not getting called.

    Classy move at Geelong the way they put all the opposition supporters in the only open air part of the ground, with the worst visibility at any AFL ground.

    Why are we all subsidising that ground again?

     

    Right? And they only allocate 500 - 1000 seats for opposition supporters (we were actually given less than 500). Why are they allowed to do this? And they charge Geelong members $10 for parking and everyone else is charged $15. Again, who allows this? AND they relegate opposition cheer squads to a shi*tty spot on the wing, right by the race where it’s criminally cold AND (somebody slap me) their ground staff are downright rude to our banner crew and sweet af to their own. I could go on and on.

    Isn't Caleb Daniel supposed to be good? Or has he been doing a mini Kent Kingsley on us this entire time? Geelongs best player so far.

    This game’s degenerated into a cluster-[censored] of skill errors. I love it!

    Umps now protecting Bontempelli with shepherds. Bews was not happy with the maggot

    Dissent hasn’t that gone out the window Bews gobbed the ump ignored. Hawkins miss was a highlight. Commentators already making excuses for Cats their distracted by Duckwood 350th game. They are the media darlings can do no wrong.

    It’s a horrible experience for any supporter from another team. For a stadium that’s 60-90 minutes drive for 5 million people I have no idea why the AFL continues to allow them to cater purely for their members.

    Look at the experience of Optus, The Gabba, The Adelaide Oval, or the SCG. Why is the closest out of Melbourne experience so absolutely dreadful?

    Last Geelong goal was the result of a blatant push in the back.

    The cats forwards push their opponents in the back, head first into marking packs.

    It's a dangerous grubby practice and the never get penalised.

    Meanwhile WTF is happening in Adelaide?!?

    The Channel 7 graphics department must have borrowed some 3’s from the other channels to be able to show the age of so many of these Geelong players. My word they are old. It’s insane.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
