Just in relation to The Incident in the last couple of minutes today.

It happened to us and now it happened to Brisbane. They didn't stop and make the player take the kick because there wasn't any advantage. It happened to Collingwood and they made the player go back and take the kick.

    And then we sign up the pea heart for another year!

    one of the very few players I’ve ever seen that looks dead set terrified on the field. 

    Recruiters dropped the ball … premiership team yet we couldn’t attract a gun player in 2 seasons

    I pray we can reload and contend again next year or my love of the sport might have died today. What a sad day it is in this country where we see a pack of sexual predators and thugs celebrated. 

    For mine, if it has died, it died the day Maynard got off. Everything changed that day and I’m just hoping the change isn’t irreversible. The AFL is the custodian of our beloved sport. How dare they cheapen it as they do.

    [censored] you AFL this game is so broken.

    Coleman BOG in the GF.

    Bontempelli best player of the year. 
    So great that they are both rewarded for it.

    I really hope the story of that game is the advantage interpretation.

    There’s absolutely no justification for how that was to the Lions advantage. That was a pure, out and out, mistake by the umpire.

    There is no chance in hell that narrative will be allowed to live even in one media cycle.

    I know the popular thing to do is bag the umpiring. 

    But we have so much to learn from that game, and from Collingwood. 

    They just won a GF with Frampton, Mihocek, Cameron and Cox as their tall forwards/rucks. They are relaxed, they balance defence with offence, and their supporters support them no matter what. 

    They were the best side all year and it’s hardly like they didn’t deserve to win today. 

    Brisbane were great, and it will go down as one of the all time best GFs, but rather than trying to tell ourselves they only won due to our poor QF kicking or today’s umpiring, let’s all acknowledge reality - they are the benchmark and they are better than everyone else.

    I watched Moore's speech because he is actually likeable but they won 3 finals by a total of 10 points.

    We have a lot of work to do to get back to gf day. Smart recruiting would help.

    So now I'm going to avoid social media, not even going to bother watching any footy shows even the sunday one & radio. 

    Can we start trade week now?

    What’s the point …. Focus on our team who’s recruiting in last 2 seasons of our premiership clock has been below par… we get Hunter who can’t kick & Schace who’s failed @2 other clubs & plays 2 games & a sub ahead of Grundy ???

    Too late to learn pies had two average rucks who played a part in the ein without being major goalscorers. Lost season for us.

    Who’s saying the AFL caused us to miss scoring opportunities???? Of course they didn’t, but what they did do is make decisions that effectively impacted the outcome of games, directly as well as indirectly. If you don’t think the AFL are writing the book think again. Because they are.

    I dont remember a season where there has been so much

    criticism of the umpiring from the media commentators.

    They must make the rules clearer so that it is easier to get it right.

    They should talk to Glenn James, one of the greats!

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?
