Scully done over?

I must have been looking the other way, but near the start of the game did a couple of Collin*@%#d players get stuck into young Tom?

I remember him kneeling on the ground as if he'd been roughed up and then coming off the ground for a time.

Remember last year Jack Watts was given "the treatment" at the beginning of the game as well!

Its an adult game and i'd expect when the dees become a better side to do the same thing to others.

We need to harden up and realise once anyone crosses the white line they are a target. I think we are learning to protect them better however

News Flash - Top draft pick put under physical pressure by opposition. Lets move on....

I have no problem at all with a player being put under a bit of pressure and I wish we were better at it!

I was just asking what happened! Let us move on then...

I believe it may have even been from friendly fire via a Joel MacDonald swinging hand

I remember Jack Watts being in possession and being tackled. I don't remember him being the 'victim of bullying' or whatever garbage people like you seem to want to remember

He was targeted bigtime and i wonder if it had an influence in him dropping those chest marks.

His attack on the footy however is first rate and ability to get to the right position phenomenal. You can't teach that.

Due to his size though, i think he'll be pushed around until he baulks up.

Very happy with him.

I poke in the eye can't make you drop three chest marks can it? Harsh, Yes but expect number one picks to take at least two out of three.

Yes it can as an unfocused/blurred eye would effect depth thus make it difficult to read the flight of the ball

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
