Is it me or the umps torching Port? 

I think you are right. I can’t work out what rule a number of these so called frees are awarded for.

Both of these teams look average. Very little composure to be found on either side this last quarter. 
 

Saints supporters aren’t letting their unfamiliarity with the rules get in the way of their passion.

The booing of Horne-Francis is seriously dumb.

We booed Tom Scully for years, after at least serving out his initial contract. JHF did something that undermines the integrity of the draft basically. Imagine if every #1 did what he did.

I only watched the last quarter, but At Kilda lacked a lot of composure, they didn't look like a quality side to me.

We might have booked Scully but the rest of the comp didn't. It's bloody stupid unless you're north supporters.

Jeremy Finlayson looks like such an ammo-level footballer but is an absolute quality forward/ruck.

Really happy for him that he got the trade he needed and is playing good football. Credit to him for being able to stay focused on the game. 

Both Finlayson and Cameron as I recall were so disappointing in the GF loss to Richmond 2019.

Both have done so. much better when playing for a club who knows footy and play with passion.

GW$ is such a shameful waste of talent.

Did any other teams boo Scully in ‘solidarity’ with us..?

That’s the weird part.

That was Melbourne supporters - what’s it got to do with St Kilda that North have been poorly managed for 10 years, so a kid left?

Do we expect Brisbane supporters to boo Jackson because he left for Freo? It’s weird.

That Grand Final was really the boulevard of broken dreams for a lot of those Giants players

You said the answer, “ ignorance” by the cretins booing a very good young footballer.

Haven’t heard the Port fans booing Howard, their former player, or Steele the Saints Captain and ex Giant or Butler, or Wood, or Hill etc.

I don't condone the booing but slightly different circumstances to a regular trade.

Horne-Francis essentially Tom Scullied North while they were on their knees and only saw out half of his rookie contract. Fair spit in the face of North fans who should rightfully be [censored] (I'm aware there are probable issues at North that contributed to him leaving).

Why every other teams fans has joined the booing bandwagon is somewhat perplexing but probably relates to group-think/pack mentality.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
