Heath- Suspended for the rest of the year (including finals if they make it)

Dak- Suspended for the rest of the year (including finals if they make it)

Reece Shaw- has been suspended for 2 weeks for drinking while injured.

Heath and Dak have been finded only $5000.00 by the club.

Still pretty weak I think.

    This whole saga is GOLD! While we are not squeaky clean @ MFC, I'm going to be dining out on this for a while. Seems ironic though. Normally you get fans trying to emulate their heroes. Now we've got filth players emulating their fans. :lol:

    Am happy because they are from Collingwood.

    Am outraged because I have them both in my dream team!

    Its more than I thought they would get. The pies need these guys desparately if they want to make the finals. I figured they would come up with some soft punishment and a bigger fine.

    Hopefully the message will finally get through to a few more AFL players who do stupid things.

    I have no time at all for drink drivers, I would of sacked Heath Shaw and left Didaks punishment as just a fine (But I am a lot harsher than most)

    I find the Rhys Shaw suspension confusing

    You can be an accomplice to a drive by shooting ..... and not get suspended

    You can drive a car, have an accident with almost 3 times the legal BAC .... and not get suspended

    But having a drink when your injured? Suspension 2 games

    About time CFC made a stand like this. Its all fun and games until one of these guys hurts someone or themselves.

    They should consider themselves very lucky that all the got was a suspension.

    There is absolutely no doubt Collingwood have handled this poorly. Heath Shaw should've been suspended for at least 3 matches for the drink-driving offence yesterday, by not taking any serious action they have been made to look like fools. All of a sudden when they find out Heath Shaw and Didak lie to the club they suspend them for the rest of the year, this is more about them trying to save face then actual punishment.

    Suspending Rhys Shaw for 2 matches for heavy drinking is confusing due to what happened with the other two, but would surely have been the action taken by any competant club, and until now they haven't been all the competant!

    The sweetest thing about this is that Mick Malthouse, in all his wisdom, set this precedant last year by taking suspensions more-or-less off the table for punishments. It's really come back to bite them now!

    To whoever implied the Rhyce Shaw suspension was unwarranted, I'm sure it wasn't just a drink.

    Still pretty weak I think.

    I think it's a reasonable outcome. It'll be interesting to see what decision's made on their future.

    If I were a CFC fan, I'd be hoping we move on Didak.

    Typically weak by Colingwood.

    If it was Melbourne I'd want both players to be sacked. Drink driving is one thing, lying is another, embarrassing your president, coach, captain and teamates and destroying your club's reputation is another again. Both should have been sacked.

    I'm sure it wasn't either. But even if it was heavy drinking, it still highlights how lenient the previous punishments have been at the club in comparison.

    Who knows, if they had been harsher in the past, maybe Shaw and Didak would have thought twice about being so stupid

    In their defence don't forget that they're all suffering from "Blockbuster Fatigue Syndrome"

    HA!! :lol:

    :lol: Actually come to think of it, it may kill off some other teams in my league...I stand a chance to go all the way now! Woohooo! :P

    I see a certain dash about shielding your mate in if you have already been lumbered.

    I dont understand why the penalties are now overly harsh, except for the fact that the hierarchy have made fools of themselves by lack of research and have over-reacted.

    Didak should have shot through or hid under the roses.

    He was more than averagely stupid to hang around the scene.

    I wouldnt be surprised if everyone collectively gets over their egos and reduces the bans to two or three weeks.

    Didak, Shaw out for season

    Confirmed.

    Will they now tank for the best possible draft picks :rolleyes: ?

    In fairness tho, I don't think Heath was trying to copy his supporters. Afterall, the vehicle that he was driving wasn't stolen and there was no mugging reported nearby.

    Can Eddie work his magic yet again...will the filth now be able to pick up ARB Bullbars as a new sponsor?

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
