Umpires ruined this game. Totally favouring essendon.

Personally I could give a stuff who won out of these two but my god the umpiring was lopsided and terrible …as it consistently is these days. Bombers def got the fairy take ride with the umps. I just don’t like seeing the umpires have that big of an impact.

    Make that 50. 50 frees in a single game. 
    That’s 30 too many. 
     

    Imagine the Game Day thread if Demonland was around in 1993. In round 10 of that season Carlton 44 free kicks Melbourne 18.

    Blues have no recognisable system.

    And despite having stars like Curnow, McKay, Weitering, Walsh, Cripps, etc. they have little else.

    I haven't seen this game tonight but they are seriously underperforming.

    I fear for Vossy, don't know whether the board can hold their nerve...

    need a massive clean out - ed curnow, kennedy, dow, o'brien, jack martin - none of them are good enough to be part of a decent midfield

    mids don't look fit, they don't work defensively, and their disposal leaves a lot to be desired

    But does it not resonate clearly of our 2017, 2018 years?

     

    keep your powder dry or do you ditch another coach?

    They are shocking decision makers and an inability to make clean handballs or kicks, will they hold their nerve or react to the outside noise cannot wait.

    2018 we made a PF.

    2023 for Carlton is looking more like our 2019.

    Yeah but 2017 we just missed the finals. Thanks to the Eagles V crows game and percentages.

    If I could pick one ruckman to replace Max when he goes, Draper would do pretty nicely.

    Just please ask him to get rid of the mullet.

    I was at Princess Park that game.  Must have been a brown paper bag left by the late John Elliott in the umpires room pre game. Was not one word in the papers the following day about that disgusting display of umpiring either.

    Was that the game Greg Williams got 44 touches and failed to get a Brownlow vote?

    I’m concerned Essendon will finish top 4 with a weak as water fixture to come home with.

    Can someone allay my fears? 

    You really are scared of a lot of other teams.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.
