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

    umpiring so far this round has been a complete joke.

    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.

    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

    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

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
