Pretty much considering you attempted to portray the tweet was anything but unreasonable !

Yeah I don't know if it was "unreasonable", not to me anyway.....

I understand though how the AFL deem it as such, but personally I though he was pretty honest.

I do not think it was unreasonable. I think the AFL are beyond there own boundries on this one.

People (any person) can tweet whatever they like.

Maybe the AFL will sanction this site one day....is that reasonable?? To you it maybe, but not me.

What Ricky Petterd said in his Twitter was repeated multiple times in here-He was telling the truth.

What you fail to realise WYL is that the players represent the AFL. The AFL can impose sanctions / fines as outlined in the article and as stated by Adrian Anderson. You may not like it, but that's how it is. This site is different and the members do not represent the AFL.

Of course (the tweet - "B...$h!t")it was unreasonable. Even our club the Melbournefc recognise that ! It was a direct response to the upheld decision. Black and White.

I can't understand what was wrong with frawley's comment.

He didn't directly dispute the decision just commented on the impact of the outcome in a humorous way

That should be "acceptable" surely

It seems pretty heavy handed given how tame the comments were, but let's be honest: the boys should have known better. They all know the rules and know the system they work within. Non-event - cop the (suspended) fine and move on.

The AFL can go suck a big one.

Biggest screw-over we've received by the league in my time as a Melbourne supporter. This entire week has been nothing short of a disgrace, and I hope we send the AFL a nice little tape of 'dangerous tackles' from this weekend with our very own please explain.

Bastards!

Really I hope that the players don't let themselves be censored. For starters, 2500 for most of them is not that much of an issue, and far as I am concerned, they have every right to mouth off. I know the commission has their rules, blah blah blah, but I personally am sick and tired of those fools and their stupid rules. I feel like I am still in NSW under the Bob Carr government. We can barely even think these days without being subjected to a fine. You have to allow the game to have a human element. I know the powers that be have a fixation with NFL and how they run their game, but it is an American game. Let them have their American game, and lets have our tough and completely unique game to ourselves. Why does every part of life have to be sanitised, scripted and controlled. Let them be human.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
