jaded,

could not have said it better!!

has become a habit of his and did not heed any of the warnings, so a suspension you must have!!

trust that he goes back to being a ball player - does not want to be remembered for being a sniper!!

    It's a shame that in the end he got suspended for something that really wasn't all that bad,

    Yes, well, in the end they got Al Capone for tax evasion. ;)

    and ben johnson for hit on bell, gutless

    Exactly.

    It's a shame that in the end he got suspended for something that really wasn't all that bad, purely because of the media pressure and such placed on him from his previous incidents.

    We don't want the tribunal using this incident as an example in the future, but he certainly deserves to be suspended for his pathetic weekly cheap shots. You play with fire long enough, you'll eventually get burnt.

    Exactly.

    Perfectly said.

    What justice!

    He's going to miss their game v Collingwood.

    I'd rather he played.

    About time.

    Forget the hooplah surrounding this incident.

    Any more of those cheap shots he may as well be wearing an Essendon jumper.

    Memories die hard.

    Cop your whack Adam and clean up your game.

    Probably not the most serious of the big cases he's had to face... But this is an excellent case of Karma coming back to bite him.

    Now... If he defends it and gets off there'll be hell to pay.

    One week accepted.

    At first i thought it looked a bit softer than his other charges, but on seeing the last replay it really is a poor hit. Lucky he could plead guilty to cut a week off the suspension

  • Quote

    Good, totally blatant hit, no eyes for the ball and he saw that Barty had his head down.

    I can't believe how thrilled I am to read that. Would have been shattered if Yze got the record because his form often didn't warrant selection, and then I would have been even more shattered if Goodes got it because I don't believe he plays with the same good sporting attitude that Jim did.

    Reckon Stynes might have a little smile on his today as well.

  • Quote

    Correct - had Goodes or Yze taken this record it would have been without merit in either case. Goodes is a top player, but is extraordinarily fortunate to have had his sequence of games go this far.

    If masturbation was a citable offence Goodes would be out for life.

    I despise that [censored].

    It's no wonder he seems to have lost alot of vision. Must be making him go BLIND!

    He is a fantastic player... As the Age article, and Jaded suggested, "Goodes is the thief booked for jaywalking". Shame he got rubbed out for a soft one when he has other priors that are viewed as worse.

    I also admire the man for his longevity along with Yze and the great Jim Stynes, the last time the swans played without Goodes was round 21 in August, 1999 FFS!!! I watched him play in the under 18 granny in '95 on the G, he played well that day. He was not viewed as going to be anything special and he worked his @rse off to become a champion of our game.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
