As much as I hate the pies & they are looked after by the afl the fixtures etc also respect them that they fight to the end, something that’s gone missing from us & all this love BS and talk of not wins & losses but process is that BS as it’s created mediocracy acceptance of losing, we don’t hear McRae saying this he looks like he cares deeply for all his players!

    Hey @Clintosaurus Gold Coast got about 5 free kicks in the last 5 minutes. I assume this is because the Collingwood conspiracy took a break tonight?

    I didn't see the game. Guess Hardwick's sooking about Matt Rowell got a dividend?

    Did laugh at this from a Cats fan podcast:

    Interesting that the AFL keeps fixturing a Pies rare interstate trip, to the GC in school holidays, ensuring a large Pies fan attendance and surprise, surprise, they then with the noise keep getting the best of the umpiring.

    Have they played at Geelong in the last 40 years?

    Yeah and didn’t Jonathon Brown (and Garry Lyon to a lesser extent) love mentioning how the pies are great in terms of how many travel interstate. Of course a lot of them travelled; as you said, it’s school holidays and it’s the Gold Coast.

    I’d like to see how many would travel to three consecutive interstate games, especially if they’re at the wrong end of the ladder. Or two matches in Adelaide in the space of five days like we had to last year.

    It pizzes me off no end because the fact is our club can boast a very high rate of supporters travelling interstate. Our cheer squad is #1 when it comes to travelling.

    Stick that where it fits, Jono and Gaz 😁

    Just turned on Footscray v Adelaide - best news is that umpire 22 is there today which means he won't be there tomorrow.

    can run, can bounce the ball, can't officiate the game

    routinely poor decision maker

    And one of the nicest humans you’ll ever meet.

    An absolute disgrace that he’s never won a Brownlow.

    Watching GWS game: i absolutely hate bad umpiring. A Geelong player gets the ball, tackled, drops it, play on. The caller says: he "dropped it but had no prior opportunity."

    WHAAAT???WTF????

    And the amount of pure throwing that the umpires tolerate - not to mention that, without fail, EVERY free paid against a Geelong player is disputed, with no dissent penalty - just gives me the complete s...s.

    Andrew Dillon: Do you know what a handball is??

    Throwing is incorrect disposal

    These Suits should be put in jail for ruining the Game of Australian Rules Football

    Give me 5 minutes….

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
