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.

    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: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
