MOTLOP ON REPORT

[Rolling Stone 157]

The bloke's always a pest when we play them.

Is there anyone who saw the incident and do you think the match review dudes will remove him from next Sunday's game against us?

MOTLOP ON REPORT

Being reported by a Goal Umpire alone is unusual in this day and age. Hopefully there will be supporting video evidence. One week would do nicely.

I seem to recall he has some carry-over.

No Motlop for Port on Sunday after being offered a one match ban. Motlop is unable to reduce the length on suspension with an early plea.

Heath Shaw and John Anthony were both cleared along with former Dee Chris Johnson.

IMO Motlop is worth 3 goals to Port before the game even starts so its a bonus for us

He was worth five last time we played.

and no Justin Westoff either....another 3 goal a game player. So this means that Power will be relying on tredrea for goals and i feel confident Warnock can do a job on him

[Wiseblood 24,637]

So now it's no forward line vs. no forward line this week.... should be an interesting game to say the least!

They'll just ram through 10 from the midfield to take up the slack. :angry:

I don't want to admit it.... but it's true. <_<

They've still got Ebert, and they could throw Chad Cornes up there too. Still better than ours, but definitely weak and we're in with a better chance than we were 48 hours ago.

This Motlop news doesnt affect the Demons at all, as we have no chance of winning at AAMI for a few years still.

We were even pathetic there in our Finals seasons.

Yeah, wasn't it surprising to read that before they won on Friday night, St Kilda was listed in the Herald Sun as having the worst record at AAMI of any club. How did we escape the radar on this issue? Sadly, I just put this one down as a loss every time. I guess you aren't tipping a Demon win then this week YM? I remember a few seasons ago, after hitting the top of the ladder, one game clear after 18 rounds, being thrashed by either Adelaide or Port at AAMI the next week. I don't have the answer. We even play better at Subiaco don't we? Certainly had more wins over there in the last 10 years.

Sylvia's due for a break out week I feel

Sylvia's due for a break out week I feel

My as yet unborn grandkids will be 70 and some people will still be saying that.

I wonder if we might do something silly and knock an understrength port off this week at home?

[45HG 1,539]

Bobby, from memory we got pumped, PUMPED, by the Crows after they had had a rubbish few months in Craig's first game as coach.

We won a few in a row, hit the top of the table, then got pumped by Port to begin our 5 losses in a row.

Certainly a hell hole for us. Not to mention Round 22, 2006. Half the Crows side out, a win for a top 4 spot, never got into it.

Last year we played the week after the Freo game, kicked the first four of the last/third quarter to get it back to 27 points....lost by over 70

Actually, I'd be happy if one of the Port players such as Chad Cornes, really got under his skin and had a go at him. Just to see if he fires up on the field.....it's time the penny dropped for Sylvia.

Does the penny drop for Mildura boys?

Look closer, and you'll see that that was a stupid HUN miscalculation. They claimed St Kilda had a worse record than us because they'd won 4 and we'd won 5. Do the maths and you'll see that our winning percentage is lower than their's, because we've played about 5 more matches than them over the same time period. We've got the worst winning percentage at AAMI.

He will just get reported.

I just want him to focus and play footy.

Every time we go to AAMI, I ask this question. But this time I give us 0.000000000% chance. Just don't have the cattle.

Someone on the Port Board at Big Footy was bemoaning turnovers and skill errors, on the face of it things sound pretty even.

Not good to watch though.

PS Motlop is challenging his week

Hope he gets off!

Good for draft picks, even better for an understrength super coach side

[Deeman 1,497]

Cleared. :angry:

[CHAMP 347]

Cleared. :angry:

Yeah, apparently the goalie had some sort of delusional episode. Motlop said "didn't happen" and Hunter agreed with him.

Yeah, apparently the goalie had some sort of delusional episode. Motlop said "didn't happen" and Hunter agreed with him.

Yeah the players code probably kicked in on that testmony, but according to the report delivered on Fox Sports tonight Motlop was asked if he "punched" Adam Hunter and he said he didn't then Hunter said he didn't, and then Motlop went on to amend this opinion by saying something along the lines that it was "more of an upper cut" !!!

Anyway he was cleared all the same......

Daniel Motlop free to play, Adam McPhee suspended
