Even if it wasn't he only fully had control when the entire ball was over the line.  Throw in every day.

    If every one of those would be paid, there would be 20 more free kicks every game.

    Another [censored] goal. [censored] this is too obvious.

    It's only the saints. Not Carlton or the pies

    Take the non goals from the out of bounds mark and Dixon's charity and the Saints would only be 3 points down right now

    Even if the Saints got close the umps would pull something out of their arzz to ensure these pretenders win

    This is unwatchable. The umpiring is crippling what might’ve been a good match. It’s so unfair, I’m absolutely furious and I’m not even a Saints supporter. And the hardest part about it is that nothing will be done about it.

    At risk of being made a fool, I reckon saints have this. I don’t know which result is better for us to be honest

    If the Saints win this they deserve eight points. This is an uphill battle for them because they’re playing while hobbled by the atrocious umpiring.

    The Saints DO have this… that is, they should have this, only they’re being stymied by blatantly unfair umpiring

    Can’t argue against that…

    Put the umpiring to one side, Port have no one on the bench and St Kilda still couldn’t get anything going. 

    Hate them or not, Port deserve that win.

    I hate it when umpiring ruins games. 2-3 umpire goals in a 10 pt loss is just not acceptable in modern footy. 

    Happens almost every game  in Adelaide.

    What a joke that match was.  The result was NEVER going to be in doubt from start to finish.

    Why even have a match?  AFL shld just say, we need at least one Adelaide team in the eight for a healthy comp and give Port the 4 points.  Save everyone the trouble.

    C’mon Titan, you can do better than that. 
    that above comment is not worth responding to. We have had issues with Brisbane for a number of Seasons and you know it 

    I can indeed do better. 

    They’ve won 3 of the last 4 against us. But we’ve played them so much of late, that only goes back to September 2022. We won the four games in a row prior to that, including belting them in the last game of 2022 (their last loss at the Gabba until Opening Round this year).

    So there aren’t really “issues” over “a number of seasons”. 1-1 in 2023, 2-1 in 2022. 0-1 so far in 2024 but let’s see how we go in the return game when we’re (hopefully) not on a 5-day break straight after a fortnight interstate.

    • 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?
