OhMyDees

Every time the ARC reverts to Umpire’s Call - the system has failed. I’d be interested to know what the stats are with this. Why have a result that shows the system has failed?

The technology may have [censored] us this time but hopefully the AFL now see that it needs improving so a final or god forbid a Grand Final isn’t decided based off a failed system that relies on ARC and Umpire Soft Calls…

Crucial non-calls that cost us dearly at the death aside from the Trac non-goal… - Oliver held at stoppage in the square. - Langdon held on half toward flank. - JVR tunnelled on the half forward flank. Umpiring doesn’t alone cost you a game but I was frustrated with the way the umpires refused to make calls late in the game other than deliberate out of bounds… Didn’t help either that I had a truly obnoxious Carlton fan next to me who ‘accidentally’ punched me in my leg while celebrating. Thanks again Andy, George and Binman for what I’m sure will be yet another amazing pod.

Taking my 71 year old Mum from Perth to the game tonight. Hard not to think she’ll bring us good luck. Last time she saw the Dees play was the 2021 Grand Final at Optus Stadium.

Correct

We have also have a super record at the MCG this year! 10 wins and 1 loss with an average winning margin of 32 points. The G is our fortress!

Most ropable thing Mitch Cleary said was basically Goody has given Grundy “one last chance”. What a peanut!

How big is the cheer going to be when Clarry gets his first touch of the pill on Saturday?

Super gutted for Petts but at the same time very bullish about season 2024. Reckon he could kick 50+ if his body holds up!

Anyone else fuming over Robbo and Whateley on AFL360 ‘ginned up’ over Carlton and then briefly saying Melbourne were essentially rooted because we lost Petty?

As much as I’m sure we’d like easy kills going into finals, what better way to fine tune our game plan by going up against teams on the up?

Why are we blaming Sparrow? He was hot and being tackled? We should be blaming the AFL for fixturing us at that [censored] ground that had every player slipping over. Look at the replay, foot totally gives way under the chopped up surface. The state of that ground was a disgrace!

The conditions of Blundstone Arena were absolutely deplorable with so many players slipping and falling over during the match on a seemingly dry day. It’s hard not to think the chopped up surface also had a role to play in Petty’s injury when his foot simply collapsed under itself. I’m sick and tired of the AFL always scheduling us to play in Tasmania against the Kangaroos. North have a contract to play 4 games a year in Hobart but why can’t they play interstate teams like, Gold Coast, Giants, Port Adelaide or West Coast ahead of us?

God we need Fritta back. Trac play forward next week and Clarry in middle.

Can you recover from an ankle in a week?

Also an option

Grundy FF next week.

Great Advantage Viney!

Well done Petty

And it’s off. I’m not watching this garbage.

I knew we wouldn’t take this chance. I bloody knew it. The [censored] club does this to us EVERY time!

Just get on a plane and go home Melbourne.

Need two goals minimum now.

Everything to play for and didn’t turn up. Embarrassing.
