Remember when umpire descent was a rule?

Which week was that?

    So Pepper and another Port player are allowed to willingly enter the protected zone straight into the oppos 45 angle area.  If he wanted to play on there he's blocked.

    And they both entered from a fair way out not caught there a split second after the mark was paid.

    They arent trailing an opponent as their opponent is behind them on the fat side

    Then in shock they both turned on a dime and exited with hands in the air as if to say "oh sorry... didnt see that"

    No free on either occasion.

    The reason the "stand" rule was introduced in the first place was to stop that very thing from happening and pay a 50 immediately it does.

    So the question then has to be asked....

    WHY ARE WE STILL CONTINUING WITH THE STAND RULE?

    Scrap this BS rule FCS

    Or even dissent. Descent would imply that they could get lower - is this possible?

    Umps get stat updates and react, known fact

    4 corners on Monday night was interesting.

    AFL pulls direct percentages on bets wagered with betting companies.

    Gets about $40 million a year in income I think it was.

    A close game is a lucrative game. Keeps people wagering.

    Thanks for that.  Explains a lot actually.

    Immoral and unconscionable.

    Big fan of Finlayson. 

    He'd go alright beside JVR and Fritta

    Happy for Port to win, then we can make the Cats season close to impossible next week.

    I don’t care which team gets the free - but riding someone into the ground from behind (Allir this time) should never be HTB.  NEVER.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
