    I really feel bad for our Melbourne based supporters who can only see a few games a year, and then they see this ridiculous umpiring. I feel really bad for our players who play their heart out and then don't get a fair go...

    It's sad and tragic, but that's the VFL for you

    Very selfish. There were quite a few of these today. Not a good look.

    I missed the early part of the game - was there a reason for the Rampe booing?

    Harsh call but potentially may have cost Sydney the game

    Good result - I gave up watching after the umpires gifted them the game. How many frees in their forward line led to a goal? So I got the weekend's washing done instead. Now I just need to delete the recording and today never happened - apart from all those clean clothes.

    Was allegedly because of the infamous post climbing

    We won the disposals, inside fifty's, clearances (both centre and stoppages), contested possessions.....but lost the free kick count 26 - 16......and therein lies the real story. The VFL sucks.....

    List of dodgy frees or ones to us we should've got if they were consistent:
    1) Ollie "push in the back" on MTW
    2) Holding ball on Blakey (where was the prior?)
    3) Holding on Aliir in ruck contest with McKernan leading to crucial goal
    4) Deliberate out of bounds by Stringer when tackled by Rampe in forward pocket
    5) Where was the 50m when Dawson got elbowed in the back of the head
    6) Push in the back on one of our guys as we were pressing in attack during Q4
    That is literally off the top of my head. Even though we had our opportunities and wasted many, we still should've won if not for the cheating umpires. And can we stop bloody playing on!!!!

    Patterns emerge, but do they mean anything? No.

    Yes, hard to fault Isaac today - getting better each week.

    But some really poor decisions (or lack of vision) cost us today (& that’s not counting the poor umpies).

    We also seemed to let them get away in the last quarter - missed a lot of tackles & they killed us.

    The lesson from today is - if Essadon is playing an interstate side in Melbourne load up at Sportsbet. They will be assisted home.
