Both Oz and indo are a bit rough but I did not know you could tackle a payer around the waist and throw them to the ground 

Oz 1.  A penalty given after review 

 

Martin Boyle is a great Scottish Australian but 

I don’t thing he has ever lived here

2 nil

Blues have done well to wrest back momentum after Hawks looked like pulling away

Has anyone else noticed that the Advantage rule has changed interpretation?

it seems that simply all the players stopping and requesting clarity on the free is no longer a problem. As long as one of the team wants to take the advantage.

5–10 Seconds later, “Play on”, No problem. 

But, it seems, not all the time.

Which is one of the lovely reasons why we love this game????

 

The TV commentary is totally embarrassing. Barracking for Carlton. Hawthorn missed two set shots. Now Carlton are the heroes. And so good”.

4 of Blues 5 goals from frees and if Acres kicked accurately would be 5 free goals from 6.

 


Blake Acres. The player that Viney kicked it straight to. Kept us out of the prelim in 2023.

It’s the worst ‘rule’ in the game. As there is zero consistency. 

Walsh took the advantage for the Blues,  scored and it was brought back.

Other times everyone stops and the ump yells play on. Can we create an actual rule around this aside from the ump does whatever?

Umpires all of a sudden paying throwing the ball against Cripps.

They’re paying every 5th throw, 3rd trip, and 4th high tackle.

It is making it hard to keep up.

After a strong start by the Storm Penrith coming back 14-10

Indonesia's new very expensive coach may not last long.

The Indonesian league was known for some vicious fighting between fans but things seem to have cooled down a little in recent years

Redleg, you're kidding if you think the Blues have had the rub of the green.

I was trying to work out how Carlton was ahead. I thought there might be something that we could employ against the Hawks.

But if we are relying on free kicks in front of goals, well then, we’re [censored]-ed.

You’re right. So I think that means that we will just play it like it is for the next 10 years

It seems to be that you have to stop, in order for the ump to say, “play on”.

I stated a stat.

I said nothing else.

I have a real problem, I as can’t stand either of them, but Carlton will always be my most disliked. Can’t stand the club.

For me it's Hawthorn, Essendon and Geelong

There you go! Just happened again with Newcombe but he was called back.

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
