    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

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
