Stuff it if they're going to pay the free kicks this way - might as well actually tackle properly and hurt them instead of laying out  a soft mattress and still getting pinged

    As a Redlegs supporter for 60 years, seeing the wharfies ripped by the umps is sweet sweet music (please forgive the mixed metaphor)

    So is that hawthorn player going to be reported for staging? Isn’t staging a reportable offence?

    Not often you see the umpiring blatantly change the course of a game in a final. 

    Should be 36 - 15.

    Disgraceful dangerous tackle free kicks

    Port have smashed them

    That last second goal has every fan on every footy forum saying…

    ’I thought we were the only ones who gave up red time goals!’.

    hawks have settled after umps got them back into the game

    Port very flakey as we know. I reckon this is a 50/50 game now

    If we take aggressive tackling out of the game especially in finals we might have broken the game

    The tackle is dead! The Hawks have kicked one legitimate goal, the rest were rubbish free kicks in front of goal. FFS we are playing a cut throat final and you can’t tackle a forward in your defensive 50 with the intent to stop the forward getting boot to ball or a pass out to a team mate.

    Oh I meant the hawks player that touched his head to the ground in the 2nd ‘dangerous tackle’. It happens every week and I don’t see how it isn’t staging?

    A player is pretending to do an action to fool an umpire into giving a free… kinda sounds like staging to me but nothing happens.

    completely agree

    I was talking about when JHF lightly tugged Impey’s shirt and he fell to the ground and grabbed his head. 

    blatant staging

    Hawthorn can, if they bring the same umpires.

    How did the field & boundary umpire miss that ball being out?

    How could so many Hawthorn supporters get tickets to an interstate game?

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
