    Being an away game its very tempting dee-luded but I think the boys will need all our support. Lets lift the roof off and wear black arm bands.

    Feeling very hollow about the AFL and this decision.

    I know it is sad but I have been wondering what the result would be like if this was a collingwood player or a suns player. Or even a player with a chance of a charlie....

    Sorry thats was petty.

    But the whole thing stinks.

    Stick it to the AFL this week demons and rip those kangas apart

    Just watched one after the other. The impact of milburn's tackle seemed greater. And trengrove got up straight away and laid another tackle. There was nothing malicious in it. My opinion is that it was a straight forward tackle of a player who knew he was going to be tackled but chose to kick instead of hand passing therefore leaving himself on one leg as he is tackled thus resulting in putting himself off balance and easily thrown during said tackle. But that's just me.

    I really like this idea! But for the black arm bands to be effective, you would need people to know what they are for - anyone got any media contacts? I will bring the black duct tape! :)

    Once upon a time there was a handsome prince who played for Carlton. One day he gauged the face of an opponent drawing blood. He got charged and because he was the afl poster prince he got let off. A few weeks later he won the Charlie whilst his victim looked on. True story

    Oh it sucks balls alright, but winning is now very important so the AFL will continue to hear our rage.

    Welcome the New Melbourne Football Club.

    Yes...we should never forget that one.

    Who is going to the game on Saturday? Who will put on a black arm band with me? I have just been informed that the HS news desk is aware of this (I reposted it on the Free Demon Jack page), so hopefully we will get some coverage. Who is game for a grass roots demonstration of our disquiet with this decision? :lol:

    Does this also effect Jack in the future? If he gets another incident, is he now looked at as having a bad record?

    Yes.

    Message to the MFC

    Much harder to appeal than to get it right the first time !!!

    Why didnt you get Galbally in the first f-ing place ?? he got Richards off..gets many off.. but we tried to do it by ourselves.

    Hope weve all learnt a valuable lesson here....besides the AFL being a bunch of pricks that is !!

    We had an experienced advocate at the Tribunal and Galbally would have done no better. The word "preordained" just springs to mind.

    I wonder how long it will be before the AFL becomes the ANCFL ?

    (NC=non contact)

    How about our 18 players and their 18 players have a fingerpainting contest? Wait - those papercuts can hurt! :(

    • 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.
