    Victim of his own height was a fair bump but hit him in head with shoulder so bye bye

    Yep, spot on monoccular. AFL spin will prevail most likely.

    Face book AFL trades reports that John Ralph said that we (as in MFC) will snare buddy! WTF! Craziest rumour thus far.

    I just read that too. Nearly fell off my chair. Apparently $2 million a year. Has to be rubbish.

    The MRP will tie itself in knots to get Buddy off or give him a week.

    Yes it is finals time suddenly the formula will change. I say maybe a week at most

    Hawks have proved on many occasions that no Frankiln means SFA to their ability to win.

    Did the Sydney play get up and play on? If so it should not constitute the force required to report. It was a touch late and accidentally high. He did everything right, tick the elbow keep feet on the ground etc. It was an attempt at a fair bump that accidentally got him high. Free kick is all it should be, maybe one week for the late bump. But given the afl he will get 3.

    Malceski got up and played on. No obvious injury..... Until he was subbed off! Whether it was bump related we don't know

    And I agree with you in a lot of ways but the rules have been set for the better part pf at least 2 years now. Bump to the head is a report and if not suspension at least reprimand

    You can't say it was an attempt at a fair bump. It has to be a fair bump and it wasn't.

    As for why the AFL has done this - the NFL today agreed to a settlement of over 700million dollars for ex players re concussion. The AFL couldn't afford a similar sum

    Hate the dorks but is it really worth more than a week?

    I know players need to be judged the same. I just like seeing champs on the field. And he is a champion.

    How does that song go?

    I don't care.

    Only interested in 2014 now.

  • Quote

    He'd have a poor record and carry over points too I'd say.

    surprisingly no poor record.

    How about a rule that says if you get the week off it counts as a week of suspension. 1 week sure but I'd hate to see Buddy miss a qualifying and prelim final due to this. That's a huge penalty

    In unrelated matters, i no longer watch games that do not involve the dees. I hate the way they have [censored] the afl. Bring back the rules from 2000

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
