NON-MFC: Round 01

Featured Replies

Shocked that Geelong are getting the rub of the green

 

What is wrong with Freo? They look second rate, bottom 4 stuff. 
 

umpiring so far this round has been a complete joke.

Edited by GS_1905

So Fremantle are the GOAT when they play against us and completely useless every other week. Seems fair. 
 

Another year of Cats being good. Can’t wait. 

 

Great first 1/4 for the year for Luke.

Kicks:  0

Marks:  0

H'balls:   2

At least he's breaking even on hitouts with part-timer SDK I guess.


I have some $$$ to make the 8. Dont let me down.

43 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

Evens out with their Perth commentary crew which is excruciatingly parochial towards their home town teams

Don't knock Kayo.

Thursday nights now with Hamish makes Ch 7 unwatchable.  There's only so many times you can use the word 'unbelievable' in a broadcast.  Someone get Hamish a thesaurus please.

Mrs Redleg after that disgraceful free and goal to Danger, just called the umpires cheats. Cox was not given a second and the ball was behind him between Danger’s legs. Commentators also too scared of losing their fat contracts to call what they are seeing.

I told her that the umpires are at least consistent. Geelong has had the umpiring their way at that ground for 125 years.

What about Dangers ‘one handed handball’ l a few moments earlier. 
 

 

I know it's the Cats but I wouldn't be overly disappointed if Freo get pummelled today. 


I’ve been watching the cats V Freo for 20 minutes - And I don’t think there has been any foot skills worth mentioning at all.

Freo simply cannot hit a target unless they are 20m clear.

Cats are applying some pressure, but nowhere near the past couple of nights.

Yes saw that. 

Dempsey just dropped it and play on then Stengle throws it and play on and then 3rd or 4th free kick goal to Cats.

This is as bad umpiring as you will see.

Agree with Mrs Redleg. Commentators too gutless to call out obvious umpire cheating.

Can someone explain the appeal of going to freo, they are perennial underachievers. If they were a Victorian team they would be like the saints

clayton will be pinged first centre bounce contest tomorrow

nothing surer


I hate the bloke, but Chris Scott will go down as one of the best coaches of all time. 
 

He has picked the Freo game plan apart and made them look 2nd rate. 

 

If I was still playing.
When standing the mark, close to goal, Iike Stengel just kicked. 
I would wait until the last minute, and then rush at the player about to kick, and flatten them.

Probably give away a 50m.

Might get a report – unlikely.

But players would always be nervous if you were on the mark.

If there was no prior opportunity then incorrect disposal doesn’t come into play

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
