    Meanwhile Hardwick has done a headgasket and set up 4 voodoo umpire dolls which he is now sticking pins into

    That disgraceful free kick changed the game. Unbelievable 

    I hadn't watched the game, but went to Kayo when I read this.  Grappling each other which happens every day.  In fact King almost put Andrew down before the free was paid.

    I can’t believe I am watching Fox at the moment and they haven’t talked about that umpiring decision yet. 
     

    I think I need to step back from watching so much AFL, I am finding myself getting frustrated with the umpiring in neutral games. The standard and inconsistency since the AFL went to four umpires has diminished dramatically in my view.

    perhaps theyre just getting supporters  used to the game changing free kicks that will happen for the favoured pies.

    I can forgive a dodgy call in the contest but literally deciding a game 100m off the ball is unforgivable 

    it needs to be blatant. The officiating makes this game really hard to enjoy

    Seems there wasnt a dangerous tackle available.

    I hate looking to umpires in close games but that is not on. Over influence and taking away from the participants

    Same goes for dodgy frees paid in the goal square.

    Was that the three most meh nail-biters ever played on the one day? 😁

    I should ask Swamp Man or whatever his name is. 😅

    Then I’ll ask him has there been another case of two sets of twins playing against each other in the same round. This is actually a genuine question.

    Three games decided by around one kick.

    Two of them by very questionable umpire decisions.

    As an aside.. the score review... we can clearly see player X touched the ball...when no one can. Why not say no clear evidence to over rule goal umpires call

    Best results for the Dees in the event we win (operative word being event):

    Richmond to beat Adelaide

    Brisbane to beat Dogs

    Hawthorn to beat GWS

    North to beat West Coast

    St Kilda to beat GC

    Sydney to beat Geelong.

    Carlton to beat Essendon

     

    Incidentally that multi is paying $349 - 1

    5/5 so far. (Unfortunately didn’t put money on it so kinda happy if one of tomorrow results doesn’t salute)

    Literally every result has gone our way so far, although North beating WC doesn’t make a lick of difference to us.

    Geelong losing tomorrow would be nice.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
