Boundary umpire is the dill. 

Nobody blew a whistle, why did he just stand there allowing the guy to rag doll him around whilst making no attempt to get rid of it

Arm wrestle with 16th place. Words you love to hear. 

Can we PLEASE take control of this after half time and bury these [censored]? They inflicted so much pain on us over the years. It’s not yet time, not even close, that they can return to that. 

They’re 16th, missing their best mid. No excuses.

Boundary and goal umpires are having a laugh this weekend.

Absolutely disgraceful display. Unaccountable green [censored]. 


Could barely have played worse, similar to Carlton yesterday.

Such sloppy skills, spending it before we've earned it and dropping easy handballs (Petracca, Laurie, Salem).
It's an attitude thing - the boys are not intense enough which is just bizarre given this win is going to lock in top 4 and it's Gawn and ANB's milestone games.

The boundary umpire was right there. Viney was a metre out.

So glad we have 90 umpires now. They’re all doing such a stellar job đŸ™„

This will go down to the wire and we’ll lose……tell me you can’t feel it

 

2nd 

đŸ¤®Salem free in space kicks straight to Sicily 

Oliver poor 

Melksham 4 behinds đŸ¤®đŸ¤®đŸ¤®đŸ¤®

Trac beaten one on one by 1st gamer Hustwaite đŸ¤¯  Trac relaxed handball to May tackled straight away 

đŸ¤®ANB 25 metres out    Didn’t make distance 

Langdon to Chin ✅

Melksham soccer goal ✅

Melksham goal ✅

Lever ✅✅

 

Kozzie and Chandler need to get busy in the forward line. Just be front and centre at the fall of the ball.

Another putrid umpiring display 

Absolutely and I won’t mention that boundary umpire. Every time we get tackled, it’s holding the ball and we can’t get one as usual.

Kozzie unsighted again.

Unfortunately it’s all too common now in big games. 

60 minutes to show some top 8 level competence otherwise top 4 is slipping away from us. Underwhelming but not unsurprising. 

Hey all, eyes off the umpires for a second and more onto our crud display. Can't hit the backside of a barn with our disposal right now.

Arm wrestle with a team who beat the premiership favourites two weeks ago.

I'm complaining about both thingsÂ đŸ˜ª

Hawthorn much cleaner, Petracca, Pickett and Oliver really need to lift. Would be worth getting Schache on as our forward line is too small

Why.. we have no tall forwards to bring the ball to ground

Other than the opportune goal out the back I'm not sure I've seen Smith

We need the small forwards to lead to space

It’s par for the course, Jaded. None of us have the vaguest idea what they’ll do at any time. It’s a complete mess. 
Meanwhile, we’re playing very poorly.

What the fugg is going on with the umpiring fraternity?

They have completely lost the plot!

He is breaking Jack Dyers rule no.1 don't get where the ball ain't. Ever since he was suspended he has been poor in 90% of games.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
