Martin Boulton article on the Trengove appeal in today's Age has a final quote from Scott backing the verdict. No vested interest at all of course. Must be running scared that Trenners will carve them up. Hopefully this fires boys up even more - norf really have this sense that they own us and will beat us any place, any where, any time. Screw that, unleash hell lads.

Brad Scott is a peanut. Fighting to make his club and himself relevant. Losing battle.

I honestly think North will either be merged, Tasmanian or dead within five years. Staying in Melbourne has always been a losing battle for them.

Unfortunate, but it's the way it is.

Yeah he was on SEN saying something like it was a completely unfair tackle resulting in an injured player and he saw no reason for even argument and Melbourne should just get on with it.....well see you on Sunday Bwad.

Persoanlly I didnt think that's what he was saying, at least going by what was shown on the hundreds of news reports about it. Rather I took it as him saying don't take it out on the MRP, but rather subtly hinting it was the fault of the laws comittee and the AFL for introducing the rule.

That's how I read what he was saying.

I was more incensed that Wayne Schimmelbusch got to make the decision before a Demons / Roos game.

Correct, that is what he said. Actually somewhat helpful as it is another person saying the rule is wrong.

My opinion of Sam Mitchell has just risen enormously; that's really puttin' 'em on the line!

No surprise really.

The players would even more confused than they usually are.

Can't pin an arm and try to stop them kicking it? So I have to attack the hips, forget about the arm and let them handball?

It really was the 'perfect tackle' but Dangerfield couldn't care less about his own safety and brought his own imbalance and his own concussion.

Two players contributed to a concussion - I say Trengove started the action, and Dangerfield made it into the 'attack' that Faptrick Smith calls it...

Why doesn't Patrick Dangerfield come out and support Trengove? Too much pride I would have thought.

That's exactly what I want to know.

If he comes out and supports Trengove that could be very important in getting him off.

The best thing he can do by 5.30pm this arvo is be named in the Crows lineup at 5pm...

I have the greatest respect for Wayne Schimmelbusch as well and no doubt his allegiance to Norf had nothing to do with his decision but whatever happened to the principle about "justice seeing to be done".

As a former player of the club agaisnt who the Dees are playing this week, should he not have removed himself from the tribunal?

The best thing we can do is win the next 3 games regardless, that's what good clubs would do and it's time we did it.

I see where you're going with this. Interesting. Winning games...they get you into the finals! And that's where Flags are won!

But we must find the Jade Monkey before the next full moon...

We found it?!

It's all falling into place...

I know you are saying "good teams get on with it."

But the rest of us are saying "good teams don't let political [censored] steal one of our players for three weeks as an example."

I've never liked Brad Scott. He just seems like a bit of a [censored].

Agreed. I'm glad Bailey doesn't go out of his way to comment on the afl politics with the media like B.Scott does.

God I hope we smash them this week.

Couldn't believe my eyes this morning when reading the hun when there is Brad Scott whining that Melbourne can't use injuries or suspensions as an excuse when they've ( kangaroos ) have had players unavailable all year. What is it with this club ? Just worry about what you're doing Kangaroos and stop worrying about us. Last years whinging was bad enough

Although Scott's whining can often drown out a 747 I like it. I like seeing that increasingly irrelevant club put up it's hand in a vain hope somebody will notice it.

Whine away Nth. Mention us all you want. Cry about how people care about what we do and nobody - even your supporters - cares about what you do. Stamp your foot and complain that you are the Port of the Victorian teams but without the history. Want to be us while realising you will never be able to.

It's as predictable as it is funny.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
