An absolute disgrace. I was already livid at him for screaming at a first year player in Lindsey after that 50m penalty and then he has a go at the greatest ruckman of all time for a bad kick in the last 30 seconds. He can go and get [censored].

Lindsey dropped his head after that spray and continued to make mistakes. As if he needed an over the top verbal spray from a senior 'leader' player.

He cares. We need more like him. Grow up

I hope those umpires have a rotten weak.

How do they sleep?

Bed bugs for the lot of them.

These umpire-influenced games, in the wider context of deep institutional biases, really drain my love of football.

I would guess this that this weekend I watched a total of 30 minutes other than our game, and it'll be less next weekend.

My football watching has dropped to;

Demons

Checking on Carlton just because my brother is a blue and likes to chat football sometimes.

Literally no other club interests me. Why bother even hating?

Even for the Demons I no longer seek out a pub if the the game isn't free to air, just listen to online radio while doing other things.

I used to inhale football news, watch three games a weekend, never miss a Melbourne game, and routinely wear my scarf just because I enjoyed a bit of random street banter about football.

A nice game by Kolt, coulda woulda shoulda had 2 or 3 snags

Bowza a little champion

Pies just that bit cleaner and savvy - they were lucky today.

its not luck

its better skills and execution

If we had one of Sidebottom or Pendles in our side, we win that.

Just an unbelievably frustrating affair.

We do so much right but we have to work twice as hard as any other team to win.

Wouldn't mind seeing Bowsa in the middle more.

We subbed our version off

May was wrong but the guy played his heart out. Show he cares. Seriously we butchered that and it been happening for years. Other than bottom teams how many close games have we won.

Not enough.

How far did McCreepy run in the last min when chased by Kossie???!!

Too far but it's the Pies play on, play on!

Effort was outstanding but why did we still bomb it in long all night towards Howe and Moore? That's precisely what the Collingwood coaching team would have wanted us to do.

Special kudos to Max, May, Turner, Clarry and Langers (who did a superb job at irritating and closing down Nick Daicos).

Sad to say, JVR disappointed yet again. He still does not seem to understand that forward craft involves more than crashing packs.

I seldom criticize umpires, knowing that they have a tough job. But when every questionable decision throughout the game goes one way, you have to wonder what's going on.

I’ve been a JVR apologist for too long now. He’s a bust, does not know how to get himself in the game. He can’t be part of our plan moving forward. Bloke does next to nothing

Great effort today but once again let down by all the same things as usual, we won’t ever be consistent till we can fix this

This.

We are our worst enemy.

We are our 2nd worst enemy ..

Stealing defeat from the jaws of victory is so on brand for us.

Played bravely but shot ourselves in the foot too many times, however I think our boys can hold their heads high.

Yep

Time and composure


I hate being the hard luck team.

Max knows he f’ed that up and he knows May knows no other way than to say how it is, at the tone in which he’s feeling it. They’re big boys. They’ll be fine.

May was outstanding today by the way.

I seem to remember Max giving Trac a spray after his injury in the game last year, or am I mistaken?

Not sure if he's our version yet but yeah, that surprised me.
But who else?
Kolt was goin' ok.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
