That's 2 reviews. Surely a goal ump should call those. Within 2 metres on both occasions. time wasting !!!

Especially the second one. Goal umpire should’ve backed himself.

    I’m just happy to see the ball somewhere other than in the Lions goal square

    He did and correctly.

    Field umpire came in and called for reviews.

    2022 is proving an ordinary draft - the first four will be stars though.

    Looks to me like there’s a fair few players from that draft that will be pretty good – not just the top four. I could name Michalanney, Weddel, Humphrey, and Fletcher off the top of my head. Then of course there’s The poo 💩

    Seriously though, I was wondering a bit as well. Mainly because this group was more affected by Covid than any other. No under 16’s, no underage year. Even in 2022 I think the state squads were a bit all over the place.

    So I think many of them will have a slower start to their careers, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the games played is not significantly different by the end.

    The big o has the same kicking coach as Max.

    Given his time at Casey, maybe Max himself was McInerney's kicking coach.

    Be a bit like like living next door to Federer and getting chess lessons.

    It's pathetic isn't it? All was lost when they got rid of the lab coats. Up until then they were the most trusted of community members.

    poor handball from bont there

    a rare occurrence

    I watch the Dogs most weeks. I recon he's been 1 or 2 percent off his best for a few weeks. So he's the best player in the comp by only half the length of the Flemmington straight now.

    Been travelling to warmer climes so missed the chance to post the alternative sports this weekend.

    World wide it's a quiet week but with the Storm playing Manly tomorrow with a win putting them top of the ladder it's a game worth watching. The NRL ladder or table as it's called can be a hard one to decipher due to 17 teams and rolling byes. Eagles before tomorrow have played 18 games with Storm at 16. That's three less games with only 6 weeks or so to go. Madness !(Shades of AFL with 19 teams perhaps)

    Looked at several footy fixtures Round 24 has Essendon and Gold Coast playing 2 matches on the same day. Essendon and Sun have played one less match, not sure how they are going to make up the matches ?

    • 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.
