Some seriously funny stuff on Demonland tonight! Loving it 😂💙❤️

MASSIVE crowd in the house so far tonight, at least 753 people here!!!! Get here quick folks, could be a lock out!

Have a friend who is an ex afl umpire and still does AFLW matches. They most certainly do review every match and every decision. They then receive an overall score which determines whether they umpire AFL matches or are demoted to other leagues to improve (where they don’t get paid any where near as much). Problem is the AFL look at whether the decision was ‘technically’ correct, not correct in relation to the decisions or non decisions already made in the game. On the ‘technically’ correct metric, they do very well. On the correct in relation to the game, I think we all know they are sub par.

Just when you think the umps have stunk it up enough tonight then boom the gift that keeps on giving

JVR on fire!

Thank god we didn’t listen to all those saying JVR should be out, wouldn’t have got to watch that cracker of a mark and goal

STOP PAYING FREES FOR STUFF YOU HAVENT PAID ALL NIGHT

Why the hell do we let them keep chipping it around inside the center square with absolutely no pressure???

Seriously if keep letting them chip it round in the middle with zero pressure, they will find a target inside 50 every time

Wow way to waste three golden opportunities melbourne

They do the other way

THAT IS AN ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING PIECE OF UMPIRING

This is excruciating to watch as it’s a carbon copy of every loss we’ve had over the past two years. Why don’t we have a way of countering what they are doing by now???

Here’s a tip to Gawndy, instead of both going to one side of the ground for the kick in, try going one each side

This is text book ‘just copy what the last team to beat Melbourne did’ playbook.

Far our Melbourne wake the [censored] up

Pay the first free (he was held), or the second (two blokes fall on his back) not the third (holding the ball)

[censored] me, chandler held, then two blokes fall flat on his back. Free the them WTF

We love handballing it to our teammates feet!

Agree but can’t bomb it high like we have been if we do. Just need to keep it low going inside 50

Tomlinson demonstrating why he keeps getting dropped

When your ruckman has more possessions than your best mids they’re a problem! Essendon played out of their skin, hopefully we grind them down and run away with it in the second half.

Kayo working flawlessly for us

10 years ago, they're a little bit behind in Adelaide. PS. Spoiler alert, we won the 2023-24-25-25-27 premierships breaking the four in a row record.

Not to mention the money made in the mens game allows the women’s game to grow and flourish while it builds itself into a self supporting (financially) competition which further employs large amounts of people.
