Yep, that's a good point too, BoBo

I loved the hands in the back rule and it should still be in operation.  I like it mostly because it's a cut and dried rule. 

Use your hands and you get pinged

Use of the body or the forearm to hold your ground was how it used to be (back in my day)

But you are right, Hawkins just pushed his opponents in the back and because of the shoddy rules, got away with it

The AFL are great at making money and marketing the sport but as custodians, they often fail

Yep 100%. The most frustrating thing about the AFL is they don’t apply their own rules until enough of the public kicks up a stink, which is quite telling that they’re happy to let things slide if not enough people notice…

    After the dogs getting the early run with free kicks

    The Pies have 15-5 since then

    Called it. I said the umps will square up. Although they are getting the ball more.

    Earlier in the game DeGoey was tackled by English and dropped the ball cold, play on was called. Just then a Bulldigs player lost the ball in similar circumstances and Collingwood subsequently given a free resulting in a shot on goal.

    Free kick watch since the 15mins mark

    Dogs 7

    Pies 25

    Why even bother watching?

    Are the umps on the take? There are some seriously dodgy calls going on in this match.

    Dogs need to spread and go fast and see if older Pies can go with them.

    3 more frees to 0 to start the last

    and it's all over

    Pies are going in hard and deserve a fair few of their frees but the lack of calls for the dogs is staggering as they are going in hard too

    Out of sheer curiosity, how’d you find out they were pies supporters? 
     

    Was it the meth lab?

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
