    Nth made to many interchange rotations. So the umps are correct and that's the rule.

    Gee nth can't take a trick

    gifting the game based on that infringement is a ludicrous rule. 

    make Nth play with 17 players for 5 minutes or any other punishment

    Bulldogs have a nice little deal going with their Ballarat games. Reportedly they get $1M from the State Government to play there.

    Could we have a game in say sunny Mildura.

    The irony is that the ground capacity in Ballarat is so small most Dog supporters don't bother with the trip

    Yet AGL HQ insist that Hobart needs a $300,000,000 stadium.  What a pack of hypocrites.

    It was because the ball was inside there 50. The free kick is where the ball is. But yeah it's harsh but all the other teams have managed to count

    North are competing with Melbourne for the decade from hell. They cannot do anything right and cannot take a trick. 
    My Swans supporting friend is at the game. Said s young North fan next to them is bawling their eyes out. It’s just so heartbreaking because you know what that feels like!

    Yet when players on the ACTUAL FIELD don’t line up in THE CORRECT PLACES THAT COULD DIRECTLY IMPACT THE GAME, everyone gets a warning????

    That makes no sense.

    No doubt the steward got it right, but as a hypothetical it would be interesting what would happen if, when North review their interchanges, it shows they only did 75.

    The North bench stuffed it up and paid a massive price.  What a rotten way to lose a match.

    Look on the bright side.  The win edged Sydney above Freo on the ladder.

    Bloody hell.  I'm no friend of Norf but even I'm wondering how many times the footy gods can fart in their faces. Brutal way to lose.

    Everyone knows what the rule is - it's not hard. Is a real pity for North though.

    No conspiracy. Nth stuffed up there interchange rotations. Surely there is someone on the nth bench that counts these

    I’m not doubting the free kick - but the delivery system for that from a gamesmanship perspective is horrific.

    ’Hi, I’m a voice from above that no one can hear but you. Yeah, that team wins. Cheers’

    Yet what happens, if, sometime in the future a similar thing happens but the interchange steward and not the club got the count wrong?

    Interesting. Last night a Port Player did not leave the field though the interchange gate. Someone posted the footage and asked the question last night.

    Was on Twitter last night. Will see if I can find it. They asked the question 'When did the rule get changed" Never thought much of it until I read the rules just then.

    Then that would be an equally massive stuff up.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
