Dean Wallis - Good riddance

Featured Replies

So pleased to see Wallis shafted.

I'll never forgive, or forget, him and Sheedy in 2000 GF.

Ed: changed topic title. :) Added " Good riddance".

Edited by Mono

 

Agreed. Got no sympathy for this thug!

Thank Christ. I opened this up thinking it was a 'suggest we get Dean Wallis' thread and I was ready to pour rage onto the screen.

 

There was one of those naked father/newborn baby photos of him on the Sun once.

Violently,vomitous viewing.

I attended a wedding reception a few years ago where Wallis was a guest.

My wife had to stop me making a scene (especially after I'd had a couple of drinks).

I can never forget the 2000 grand final: what a f#*^ing thug.

Good riddance.

But of course his accomplice is still at large and coaching the Tigers!!!!!


I don't understand all the venom for Wallis.......He did what a player should do in a grand final.....If it was one of our players doing it to an Ess player.....You would all be cheering

Lets be honest they beat us up that day and won......It's 13 years ago....

Time to get over it....

Smacking a kid in the throat is what our players should be doing on Grand Final Day???

No ...win is what you do at a grand final.

 

What Wallis did to Greeny was a low act, Grand Final or not.

Their sacking of Wallis is the only thing of value to the game that Essendon have done all year!

If Wallis did the same playing in a Melbourne premiership side no one here would bat an eyelid.

Still don't really know how to feel about that incident. Sure, all bets are off on GF day. Physically beating your opponent has proven to be a legitimate tactic to win.

But also, there has always been a line. Certain parts of the body you avoid...

That hit to the throat was a very cowardly and dangerous act. It could well have ruptured Green's windpipe causing suffocation.

If any player did it to another player it would be an act of outright aggression and if done in the street would lead to serious assault charges.

Dean Wallis was in my opinion a coward, and remember Brad was being held during that encounter by another Essendon hero.

Would I want a couple of seasoned Melbourne players to perform the same act on an 18/19 year old first year player from another club?

No!!!

If we need to win dirty ,win dirty i say.

Troy Simmonds and Brad Green were legit targets.

Would have liked to seen how long Wallis would have lasted if Grinter was still playing then.

Tapscott could model himself on Grinter across HBF.

Long Kick,good mark,good punch,straight lines .

and take out the garbage.

Gee I hope you weren't there when Big Carl was playing....Or Don Scott or Mad dog Muir....or many of the other thugs that ruled the VFL/AFL.....Duncan Wright???who knocked out Somerville in a semi final...

In defence of Wallis....I think he was going for the Jaw and miscalculated....but time to move on...those days are past...

Agree Tony. Some petty gripes here.

IMO any player that illegally takes out one of my team players are scum!

Over time I may forget but I will never forgive.

I simple don't understand why any MFC supporter will make excuses for such behaviour against their own team.

I am all for hard at the ball play etc but cowardly king hits and taking out of other players even if it done by a MFC is unforgivable.

A point can be hypocritical and correct at the same time.

Happy Birthday Nasher!

Your efforts with Demonland is very much appreciated.

Wallis and his little dog Richmond Coach apprentice will get their dose of Karma.

In that GF we had no-one to retaliate, that needs to be addressed................................legally, now!

We need another Grinter or Clarkson or someone to dish out some HARD stuff.........................legally of course. he he he!


Dean Waillis is a loser

but that scumbag soft [censored] Michael Long is much worse

His hit on Simmons was the biggest dog act I ever saw

Simmonds had the balls to put his head over the footy in the biggest game of the year, and he nearly got made a quadraplegic by Long the pathetic little maggot

Agreed! That incident is still vividly implanted on my memory. It was a gutless king hit.

Sheedy made it all happen.

The only risk to essendon in the 2000 GF was a few very young MFC players; Green was one.

Wallis had not played one game in the 1s that year (re-read that); Sheedy brought him in purely to take out Green and others. No other reason.

For mine, Sheedy and Wallis have been beneath contempt since that day.

(And pity the essendon player(s) who stood aside for Wallis.)

Sheedy = %^&* Wallis = ^&%$

Ed: incorrect assertion

Edited by Mono

The worst thing about what essendon did that was that they didnt need to. They would have won anyway - we all know that. So they didnt need to be dirty pricks. And yet...

 

They were probably on drugs even then...

Yes, they were far too good and would have won without the thuggery committed on Brad Green, which action can be fatal, and has been at other times off the field. Cowardly and unnecessary.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
