I went down to the rooms after the game for the first time, and noticed Chip had a bit of a black eye with a scrape down his cheek. I presume, of course, that it came from the same incident that caused the blood rule in the first quarter...

I think it was Leroy Jetta, who Chip had attempted to spoil, who had rolled over and pretty much shoved his boot stops into Chip's face. Nobody got upset, or started a fight, which is why it may have gone under the radar. But from my view of the screen, it looked like it was deliberate for sure.

Anybody else see this and care to comment?

    I saw him come off with blood on him but wasn't sure why. If was Jetta then it was one of the few kicks he got today.

    Right in front of "moi". Must get weeks. Who knows with the MRP tho.

    Yep saw it live and on the replay. Jetta definitely meant it and should get at least 1 week because that is a dog act and dangerous

    Didn't pick it up at the game but saw it on the replay. Pretty average act, Chip kept his head well not reacting with anything over the top.

    Was one of Jetta's few kicks for the day!

    I chuckled.

    It's funny. Having looked at the replay now that it's up online, the angle the telecast used was pretty inconclusive. But at the ground, on the big screen, when they repolayed it there was zero doubt in my mind he kicked him, studs first, in the face. Simple as that.

    Wouldn't have the foggiest what the MRP will do. But then, when do we ever have any idea what they'll do?

    Agree but that sort of act deserves more. You could lose an eye from the stops or have a jaw or cheek broken. Low act.

    Was given two weeks suspension for misconduct but reduced to one with an early guilty plea

    At least it's something. Glad to see it wasn't overlooked. He's a loose cannon that Leroy.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
