I really don’t like the stand rule or the insufficient intent one.

    Bailey went over the mark by 2 steps late. Ump was directly side on, making it really obvious 

    Pretty sure it wasn't a "stand" infringement

    Still feels stupid that Carlton played GC at the MCG and this game is at Marvel.

    Really poor defensive game. Both teams running freely between the two 50 metre lines. It looks even, but at least one of them need to tighten the crews a bit. Not finals standard footy at all.

    This game couldn’t be more different to our game last week versus Carlton.

    No argument it's stupid

    Collingwood tried to swap with game a couple of weeks back, in order to Max crowd at G with top 2 clash

    I'd prefer to not play home games in NT...

    We definitely want to be playing Pies I reckon.

    If Moore isn’t back in top shape in finals they are cooked. They are already a poor defensive side. Add to that their risky ball movement and they just cannot defend turnovers.

    Collingwood's backline is not the same without Moore, would prefer to play them as well.

    I know we need Brisbane to lose, but gee it’s a good night watching Collingwood implode 

    maybe famous last words…

    Pies might have a Melbourne 2022 feel about them.. limping into finals, might be straight sets… can only hope

    +1

    Just enforce the 50 meter when opponents hold on to or scrag the man with the free / mark.

    IF they insist on retaining it then they need to make the kicker line up over the mark, yes even when deep in defence: otherwise it is a complete farce.

    And the insufficient attempt requires an already confused umpire (far too many 'interpretative' rules) to read the kicker's mind.  Just keep "deliberate"

    BT is an embarrassment. Always gets the most animated over fisticuffs, and clearly you can add a topless player to the list. 🙄

    I know it’s better for us if Collingwood  win……but I JUST CAN’T barrack for the bestards .

     I know I should move on, but it’s the ‘58 Grand Final which has given me permanent scars.

    I want a Coll.win  by a point, with multiple injuries to both sides. I’m ashamed of that sentiment, but I have to be honest.

    Commentary talking about great defences - that must be why there have been 13 14 goals kicked by now. 🤫

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
