HTB in the Bombers goal square.... no call.

10 seconds later HTM paid which was debatable.... goal.

Really hard to take this game seriously from a ruling POV

What a circus & the umpiring fraternity are the fully fledged clowns this season.  What are the teaching these guys and how are they overlooking so many obvious interpretations whilst paying less severe ones shortly after?

Many of them momentum builders/killers.

Having said that, the Blues are their own worst enemy.

So many stressed faces coming off at half time.  Whatever is happening with coach <> players certainly isn't making for a 'all for one one for all' environment for them of late.  Sort of reminds me a tad of our MN years a tad.

And shows in their accuracy for goal and/or shots falling short.

    This is atrocious from Carlton

    Peter Wright is a star. Spewing we didn’t try to get him.

    Voss can’t coach. He changed their structure significantly from last week, and they are just wide open down the middle tonight.

    Any side looks good running through the middle with no pressure. It’s embarrassing.

    Given the history of the Carlton football club it’s hard to see Voss being there next year.

    Carlton are obviously playing brand name players who are out of form or not 100% fit.

    They cant get out of the 1980's.

    Their payroll reads like a house of horrors.  Might be 5 or 6 Grundy type contracts. Even Collingwood had to move on one player, Carltons got loads of them.

    They cant sack Voss they'll be a laughing stock. Who would coach them?  Maybe Strop.

    At the end of the day they'll both be [censored] Steve but I reckon their coach might be on firmer ground than Carlton's !!

    I immediately thought how bloody wanky is that. Didn’t suit the occasion if that’s what they’re chasing.

    Welp the Test Match final’s as good as done with India going down without a fight, and there’s no way on Earth I’d voluntarily watch Essendon win. I might have to join @Jaded No More in watching cute dogs on TikTok.

    I’ve gone down a black hole of watching dog rescue videos and I’m shedding tears like a Carlton supporter right now.

    Is it just me or has Essendon been dropping the ball in tackles regularly all night and no HTB, but they’ve been given about 6 or 7 similar decisions when Carlton drop it?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
