I think, with all these wreckless bumps/tackles- the punishment should always at least fit the crime; you put a player out for x amount of weeks, you receive x amount of weeks at a minimum.

What else could go wrong? Don't ask. Because as history shows, something always does.

Jamar still 2-3 away with a calf. Mature guy with a calf injury. Put him on ice fellas, he's season is done.

Spencer gets his time to strut his stuff. Martin likewise with Clark out. If nothing else these injuries are allowing us to try our other options. Negatives out of positives ey?

I really never understand when people say this. So if you right hook a guy behind play but he comes up to play next week does this mean you get off? When is it decided too? On the other end if bump someone like Scott Thompson did and the player does some serious damage to his neck for example and can't play again does the player have to retire?

That's not what I meant at all.

I mean if you put someone out for 3 weeks, the minimum you should receive is 3 yourself. Seems an inbalance of justice when the victim is out longer than the perp.

Not sure how you extrapolated I meant someone can get off scott-free if player on receiving end is un-injured.

I tend to agree though maybe it is just too hard.

I was so [censored] off when Wojinski was back playing in a few weeks when he broke Viney's jaw.

The icing on the cake - Jurrah out for another 2 weeks after indications he would play for Casey this week

Yeh, I like how Mahoney said “Liam’s ankle has recovered sufficiently,”.... but he's still two weeks away from playing for Casey!

Agreed, nothing to be gained by bringing him back early and potentially hurting himself again. Plenty to be gain by giving Spencer and Stef rucking duties to improve their development. Jake's tap work is improving, hopefully he can get a tiny bit of skill about him.

On Nicholson, FMD I cannot believe this year. Did we smash every mirror at AMMI Park or something? Run over a black cat? Walk under a F-load of ladders?

Bad luck to him, he's been showing a bit in the absence of Bartram and I really like his dash.

I don't know what's going on with Jurrah, we keep getting conflicting reports. One minute he's going to be playing at Casey this week and now he's two weeks away from returning to footy but apparently nothings changed!

Dan Nicholson..has the pace and drive out of our backline which is one of his best attributes and top class. We need mid-fielders with elite spread and fitness to provide options for him when he is under the pump in that situation.

Dan Nicholson out for 2 to 3 weeks with a fractured jaw. FFS!

And Thomas gets a 2 week penalty. I have had enough ranting re the MRP but the system is appallingly bad. They have surreptitiously brought in the issue regarding the impact on a player and yet here we have a guy out for three weeks for a malicious act by a serial stager and reportee.

Yet all he gets is two weeks. trengove was ridiculously stiff early in the season and we have been stuffed again. Apprently its OK to hit Melbourne players in the head and break their jaw. Col Sylvia would be appalled as well if he gave a toss about anything..

The MRP can flock off and frankly 2012 footy season can flock off.

    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
