Looked pretty bad at the ground last night, a real reckless coat-hanger

It started on the chest and rode up, it looked worse than it was....

    No way. He layed a hand on his chest and it slipped up around under his chin. No intention there. Just clumsy.

    A free kick for around the neck in a contest, albeit a bit late. Nothing major.

    I've seen one David Hille get away with a lot worse...

    It seemed worse at the time as there was a fair few spot-fire fights going on then all of a sudden Macdonald does a coat-hanger on the Essendon player...

    Looked worse than it was i thought.

    What was worse was the deliberate smack in the mouth LJ copped. Was spiiting blood for the rest of the Q.

    Mark Williams is a cheap dog.

    I suspected yesterday that Liam or Jack might get special attention. I hope it gets looked at.

    It is in the preseason comp - 15 weeks and loss of half the year's premiership points - by round 15 it will be no case to answer to

    I'm more interested in whether any of the bombers are caught on the video review. There were at least three punches thrown that should be 1-2 week suspensions. I doubt any will even reach the panel.

    Let's hope there are no reports from either side. It's a farce that Petrie has to miss a home and away game for something so trivial as last week (and yet if his side had won he didn't have to miss a H&A game).

    Nothing in it. He will be fine.

    Jack Grimes & Alwyn Davey had a little ring a ring a rosie with a couple of jumper punches involved. Aaron was an interested onlooker.

    It is the AFL and their "tribunal" we are talking about, so anything could happen.

    I would think he gets nothing, as it was a hard armed tackle which slipped up off the arm.

    That being siad, the tribunal is shizen, so he may cop a week.

    I do like Joel's aggression though, just wish some of our other players were as hard at it as he is.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
