The Bulldogs battled valiantly but you have to give credit when it is due, it was just relentless pressure from the Umpires that told in the end.

    And if the Collingwood player's head had been hurt, it would be a suspension to the dogs player. That has to stop happening.

    Final score tonight 33 frees to Pies to 14 Dogs.

    When you lose by a goal that is mammoth.

    My hatred of this Pies team is so high right now. Such a bunch of thugs

    Membrey was useless.

    Houston very average aside from a few nice kicks

    Hope they put all their eggs in the one basket as they have zero youth coming through

    Would you interview Number 22 or 2 after the game?

    Tough call, they both umpired so well

    Seems anything goes in the last minute but only if it advantages Collingwood. That was a disgraceful non-call and so obvious. Would love to hear Bevo tee off about the umpires.  He must be seething.  Don’t think I heard the commentators once mention the free kick count.  Probably not allowed to.

    Garry Lyon certainly mentioned it on Fox.

    Said Dogs fans were furious:

    What a surprise- a little club is screwed over by a bigger club

    I hope Bevo fires a shot. You can have doozies but I can’t remember a game influenced by this much poor umpiring. 
     

    Glad to see social media going off. It will be discussed this week no doubt, but damage is done now.

    That Bailey dale one, dunstall couldn't believe it.

    Sorry but this game was decided by a goal. The free kick difference should not be 19.

    Seriously the standard of umpiring since they added the extra umpire is atrocious. It’s getting harder and harder to watch non Melbourne games.

    Ummmm, that’s a statistically unacceptable difference. So essentially the dogs gave away 140% more free kicks than the pies? 
     

    140%???????

    I turned it off with 10 to go

    i can’t watch those bastards celebrating ever again 

    I don’t bag the Umpires on here too much, but that was a disgrace tonight and it had a huge bearing on the Result

    I was going to ask about that. I got the distinct impression that the frees for Collingwood started relatively even and then just accelerated in Collingwood's favour.

    Missing that blatant attack on the legs, basically killing the game, is just the perfect cherry-[censored] on top.

    At some point the Pies fans also need to be copping fines for not returning the ball to the field. It has clearly become a little side game for them, something to tell their cousin-wife about when they get home.

    I just don't get it. Umpies don't go out to cheat or favour, and despite the angry rhetoric, neither do the AFL direct umpires to "follow an agenda". But how could a game be umpired with such discrepancy? Howling missed free kicks or erroneous ones in a pattern over 3 quarters. I am hoping  the umpires are in the VFL next week (sorry VFL) because they are not up to AFL standard.

    Not a chance.

    Why can't they make this professional?

    The standard just ruins so many games

    Never underestimate the subconscious bias influenced by a 50,000-strong mob baying for your blood.

    Darcy was probably BoG )with Libba and Daicos) but he hit the post twice from 30m with no pressure

    He must be feeling it

    *side note - love how Darcy seems to hate the Pies and sticks it to Maynard.

    • 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.
