If Clisby gets more weeks than C. Brown then...

Similar to my doomed if Spencer gets more weeks than Simpkin thread I'm buttering up again.

Clisby at one staged was wrestling with his opponent and suplexed some GC clown and dislocated his shoulder. It was a great display of aggression and something I'd like to see more of. I'm not convinced it was a reportable offense.

On the other hand after being legitimately tackled the d bag that is Campbell Brown threw out a stray leg right into James Strauss' face and broke his nose. Tony Shaw (who employed him FFS) could see nothing more than an accident but to anyone not born yesterday if you throw a leg into a blokes fact that's pretty clear cut.

Unfortunately the MRP are going about as well as the DRS but we wait with baited breath.

Thoughts?

Steven King on Jeff White. Kicked him in the head, broke his face. No report. Brown won't be cited.

One bad decision is now justification for another. Watch the Brown incident. He makes an (AFL buzz word) double movement. Has to be negligent, high contact, medium impact rough conduct.

I don't disagree that he should be cited, but you need to bear history in mind. We have repeatedly seen that there is a get out of jail free card when you injure a Melbourne player. Look at Col Sylvia as a case-study. He's been taken out by blatantly illegal acts during the pre-season several times, and there has never been a charge laid against the people who did it. For whatever reason, there just seems to be a bit more leniency for players who do this sort of thing to Melbourne.

Unfortunately because of where we are as a club opposition players treat us with contempt.

FCS the season is shot. Just get some bloody 'Grinter' into us and clean up some of these snipers eg. Campbell Brown, Sam Mitchell, Daniel Merrett etc. I'm not suggesting blatant acts of violence, just hard, tough, old school footy.

I normally wouldn't condone this sort of action but really, what have we got to lose? Certainly not respect.....

Brown definitely kicked Strauss in the head, a low act.

Yep, when it happened in real time I thought it looked accidental but then the replay clearly showed Brown extending his leg with force at Strauss' face. He's always been a dirty little [censored] of a player.

Well McVeigh just showed how bright he is. Declared C.Brown innocent. Twerp.

He's using his own facial demolition of his Captain, "Full Responsibility" Hird, by inadvertent application of knee at great speed as a precedent.

Reckon he's more of a drongo than a twerp.

That was a claassic moment and showed how flawed the reporting system is.

Absolutely. He should get 4 weeks for it.

Instead he won't even be reported.

He also turned and slipped the elbow into trenners face in the first quarter, he really is a dirty player

If he's guilty, which I believe he is, then that should be it for Brown. Kicking someone in the head with the bottom of your boot?

Life for me.

I re ran the incident about 10 times and I am pretty convinced it was deliberate. He looks and sees Strauss and then kicks upwards and connects with his face.

I wasn' t shocked as I regard Brown as a filthy player. He would be in good company with Fletcher who should also go this week for a late hit.

Do you know what stage of the game it was, so I can watch it?

Cheers

It was absolutely deliberate.

Give me Grinter. Not just now but always.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
