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.

I reckon Adelaide are a chance to knock off the Pies and if we put Norf to the sword we should take our rightful seat on the throne. 

Would love to be 1st and 2nd going into the Kings Birthday weekend.

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.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
