    Oh [censored] me this game is soft

    That tackle was in no way dangerous.  Tackled him at the hips / arms and was brought to ground.  What else was he supposed to do there?

    May as well call time on any tackle if Buttler goes for that

    Uncle would never qualify for banner making for a raft of reasons but mainly because we have a dress code: no skirts or dresses, and a kaftan is considered a dress, right? Also, no shoes. If he was to take his crocs off, in all likelihood he wouldn’t be able to get them back on again because portly.

    What the hec was that 50 or did i miss an incursion within the protected zone by player not on the mark? ... 

    Ump runs in and says "back here!" in a raised voice but not that loud.

    Usually they would say "back 1 metre" etc.

    But nup.

    Then as Swan player turns his head the first time he said "back here" wondering if he was talking to him the ump pins him for 50 in an instant.

    Hmm. Maybe make AFL non-tackling? Gaelic football maybe? (And no bumping obv) Seriously though, what’s the future for the physical nature of AFL? Days might be numbered.

    Another dangerous tackle that was far from it.... my gosh.

    Need to nuke the entire umpiring fraternity / program and whoever's in charge of it and start again.

    Their interpretation and over officiating has destroyed our great game

    This season in particular is like a drunk's vomit that's been left to bubble & squeak overnight before a stray dog comes along the next morning and gets lucky!

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
