Thats where Ned Kelly got it wrong.

Had he been wearing a Pies jumper at Stringbark creek he could have gone up before the MRP and had his 3 shooting charges downgraded from intentional to reckless

    Reckless Kelly - slightly humourous movie, but no Young Einstein.

    He's having a laugh isn't he?

    I'm not so sure Jack, a few players have been given weeks in recent years for the slightest.

    One was a Collingwood player if I'm not mistaken, possibly also a Saints players? In the pocket at the Dome?

    Tribunal is satisfied that the conduct was intentional, as assessed by the MRP. The level three offence stands. With deduction for his good record the offence is worth 168.75 points and he's out for a week. :lol: :lol:

    Daisy's appeal failed. Still out for a week.

    Hrm...if his appeal failed already, he'd be out for two...

    Ah OK, I didn't realise his good record still applied.

    Thomas out - good news.

    Nar, it has. Just it was reduced to 168 for good behaviour.

    A mate of mine just told me he was following the proceedings on the AFL website where Mark Macgugan 'live' states the arguments the lawyers are making, allows people to post comments and answers some questions. But he censored any posts my mate made which commented negatively on the defence evidence presented. Typical sham AFL.

    Upped from 122 points with a guilty plea to 168 points, so still only one week.

    Think they were grasping at straws suggesting the arm swing was aimed at the ball.

    Yes. I hope his coach doesn't think he was cheating by making such a patently absurd claim.

    Yeah, one of the more ridiculous defences I've heard. The ball was nowhere near at the time and in any event, I've never seen a player try to clear the ball from the bottom of a pack with a roundhouse. Ever.

    I wonder whether that as Daisy's defense has been shown to be misleading whether Malthouse will come out and discuss the virtues of lying.

    As Mick seems focussed on taking the moral high ground maybe he will tack on a club enforced additional weeks sanction.

    We are in with a show this week make no bones about it. Match up well in defence, two of their best three out, our tails up ..... Said it in another thread, a QB boilover is brewing.

    anyone watch 10 news quarters started laughing when they said he tried to punch the ball thought it was rediculous

    Be careful. Collingwood players will be fired up to prove they can win without some of their stars.

    Of course if we win, it will be because of their outs. If we lose excrement will be lowered onto us given the circumstances. Hmmm, a lose lose situation.....

  • Quote

    lol trying to knock the ball away.... If I was on the MRP I would have been flat out insulted. The ball was already meters away from the contest, and Daisy had his head up looking at the play. He really deserves 2 but oh well, same diff to us. If Tappy was back I would have actually half wanted him to play. Anybody see Josh Hunt on the weekend against the bulldogs? Our Tappy is not too far off that level I reckon!

    If we win this, it's a big win whatever the outs are. Their depth is excellent, ours is kids with under 10 games experience.

    I fear their lesser names, one of them always seems to get under our guard, like Dick.

    It's about time Moloney dominated the clearances against a good team, this for me is the key to getting close / winning, we match up well in a lot of places, but we need Moloney to lead the kids out of the middle.

    Playing in Collingwoods forward half will be instant death.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.
