monoccular

OMG if Pickett gets offered a week we should fight it right up the Supreme Court. It was a football action. But then I guess it would only be an extension of the totally biased / inept (to be kind) adjudication of everything tonight. Michael Christian is as inept and as inconsistent as the umpiring department. Lets hope the new CEO has the guts to demand a full overhaul of the umpiring department and of the MRO / MRP (probably won't though, just continues to try to sanitise and Americanise our game to "enhance the match day experience" - at the expense of the game)

Sounds like Max is a certainty. If so I would bring him in for Mitch Brown despite his two goals. Still very little is known about Jackson's injury. Is there any inside information (as opposed to hopefully speculation) as to his injury and his prognosis? Obviously if he is ready he will come straight back in. Barring any unexpected injuries I would consider leaving out Ben Brown rather than Weed, who despite being outclassed by a superior experienced ruckman worked hard and applied pressure. Sounds as if Chandler had a great game at Casey - is Bedford in jeopardy?

And the clowns at HQ say that these incompetents should be respected! Gill and his acolytes are just full of spin. Do you mean so they will be above corruption?

Just cannot compete with this absolutely corrupt umpiring. Might as well go home now.

KKP - magic stuff !

It is not their eyesight. They know what is going in. They are downright cheats.

why do you say borderline???

and missing obvious ones against Crows

May dragged without the ball - goal Adelaide

Who? Someone who should know better?

Unlistenable, and the jumper clash makes it unwatchable on a small screen.

And looks like neither Mitch or JVR …. though neither AFL nor MFC team lists are showing Jacko out.

Mac Andrew looked a year or two, at least, off AFL ready in last weekend’s VFL game. Just wondering if by giving JVR some ruck time last weekend they had some sort of inkling that our two top rucks may be just a bit suspect as the season progresses.

I usually switch off the game at the end but tonight I have left it on without the sound. Does anyone ever leave the sound on when that demented disorientated walrus wanders around the rooms with a microphone - looks like a long lost uncle who nobody cares about but "had to get an invitation" at a wedding. Garbage.

Now a definite chance to build a two game gap (plus %) to 3rd place. And then next week a classic 8 point game hopefully with our two preferred rucks back and rested. Will be interesting to see how we set up v Adelaide but hopefully we can scrounge a win with our depleted ruck stocks. Big opportunity for Sam.

Never had any confidence when he umpires one of our games. Seems more interested in show ponying than giving an even go. Someone somewhere must have data as to the free kick balance of each umpire vs each team .... I strongly suspect we would be on the far left of his ledger.

Kamikaze Saints - 2 head injuries "friendly fire" with 7 minutes to go and a 10 point lead.

WTF goal review ??? Rushed behind and no suggestion that CFC kicked it and blind Freddie could see the it was ay over the line. Madness. And then a few minutes later, CFC slung off the kick, went out in their forward line ... "insufficient intent". Are they bloody mind readers? It was just a garbage kick.

Still nothing on the MFC or the AFL website about Luke's absence or a replacement. Where did the Mitch Brown news come from? IF he is in surely Tommo would have to be the Medical sub at least.

yeah ... maybe ... but he had a basketball background 🤔

Have they yet named his replacement? Surely Tomlinson must get a look in unless they want to debut JVR thrown right in the deep end.

Surely Tomlinson would be well ahead of Mitch either in the team or as medical sub. As above.

And Gill the Dill wonders why there is a big drop off in attendances. He seems to think that this sort of crap enhances the "match day experience". I guess one doesn't hear it in a corporate box

Must have missed something, or are you referring to what the commentary team suggested pushing an opponent into an umpire? Footage not very clear.
