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".

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.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
