She also had a crack at the umpires for some poor decisionsApparently is live, no delay as is the Ch7 telecast. So just turn it on, mute BT and youre away.
BT and his mates do tend to boost the team that's behind so that the punters won't turn the game off but a bit of balance would be a pleasant change.
I must learn how to sync Blues Radio

One thing I think the umps stuffed up. Mcgovern juggled a mark, had two hands on it, and Petty knocked it out of his hands. Play on the call.
That's a mark every week, and there was a few of those last night. Wet weather footy, you can't make players hold it with an opponent punching it out. Melbourne scored on the back of one of those. Must have been 3rd quarter as it was the non punt road end.

If Cincotta hadn't been so much on top of Pickett, he might have been worth a try.Petracca was on and I dont think anyone was going to stop him if he got enough supply and it was one on one stuff where he excels like Dusty did at his peak.
We needed to put more pressure on the delivery and get another player across to help out when we could..

In a way it was better we got on top of him early and forced him to play forward.
Sure, he dominated forward......but the ball had to get there for that to happen.
Had he stayed midfield and started to dominate there, the dees would've had even more inside 50's, probably gone past the tipping point of what we could control.

The same thing happened to De Koning about 15m from goal in our forward line. Poor umpiring!
Re: AFL Rd 9 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Melbourne - DJC - 05-10-2024
Last week the media piled on Matt Owies for banging his own head into the turf. This week it’s Brodie Kemp who is copping it for slamming his own head into the ground. I’m not exactly sure how you stop your head from hitting the ground when your arms are pinned and the tackle knocks you off your feet and drives you forward.
Meanwhile, is there any chance of scrutinising Neale-Bullen’s flop when Newman brushed past him? ?

I don't mind that they don't call them, I just want it eh same for both sides and it isn't. This is a downside of having more umpires than ever before, the subjective stuff varies widely from umpire to umpire.

The AFL is causing this problem.

The MRO should fine Neale-Bullen for staging.

The staging players will never admit to staging, they all fear becoming the next Ginnivan, so they go to the tribunal and offer ambiguous evidence like "I felt some contact!"
Last week we had players fined for running into umpires, the Dees did that multiple times last night, the Dee midfield deliberately use the umpires as physical obstructions. Let's see if they get fined?
