Non-MFC: Finals Week 03

Yeah, it sucks, but don’t give me umpiring. There were a handful of blatant Collingwood frees that weren’t paid late (the Moore high and the HTB on Idun were horrendous misses).

If GWS got shafted it was by having to have a 6 day break into this game. There’s no need to ensure the top side gets 8 days into the GF. 7 is enough. But the drop from 7 to 6 is more severe and GWS shouldn’t have had to deal with that.

But in the end, Collingwood have been the best side for the majority of the year, so it’s no real surprise or shame that they’re in the GF.

    AFL approved victory there with the umpires getting them over the line. Repeat head high tackles ignored. Repeated holding the balls ignored. 

    Watch Carlton get the umpire ride into the grand final now. The afl would be frothing at the thought of the $$$ of Pies vs Blues.

    I suppose Maynard knocking Cox out in friendly fire and the Pies losing by a point next week would be karma

    Worst umpiring ever. Even the commentators couldn't hide their disbelief at some of the decisions.

    Disgracefully umpired game both ways

    Paid half frees of a normal game, was twice as intense with heaps more frees payable than normal

Hodge is a suc.  Looking for a career higher up. Brayshaw, well he was crowd gazing and sniffing the breeze

    Such a hard week knocking out an opponent, when he could have knocked out two. Thoughts and prayers.

    That last quarter was intense. The umpires terrible. Absolutely terrible. Missed at least 4 very obvious frees.
     

    Greene will be having nightmares with that non scoring shot at goal.

    I actually think he looks quite feminine and it's not because of the long hair.

    I feel sick. To see the most vile and gutter water club and fan base enjoy a winning prelim and now a Grand Final on the MCG? These disgusting pigs?

    Sick to my stomach.

    And just to rub salt into the wound we should have beat them two weeks ago.

    This season feels much worse than when we were complete trash.

    Surreal.

    That could have been us.

    So good to be in northern NSW.

    I just have to avoid the one magpies supporter in the village..... for about the next year at least.

    Collingwood 2 finals and not the better team in either of them. Everything goes their way. Just might be their year but if lions get there as the should and play to the anywhere near their best they win comfortably

    Sure but he could've used his left. The mid air banana would've been. Goal of the century if you can pull it off. Very low probability 

     

    Edit: Actually left was very low probability too. Pressure was too high.

    Did his best.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
