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?

    • 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.
