The funniest thing is if it was a norf player he would have been up in arms,

as someone said earlier the Roos look the team most likely to move or merge and he will knock the mfc as much as he can because we got bailed out and he knows North won't.

    Dwayne Russell and Damien Barrett to repeatedly kick each other in the nuts.

    The two biggest hacks in footy commentary and journalism respectively. I actually find it amazingly frustrating that a dweeb like Barrett gets paid to talk and write footy when he knows far less about the game than the average punter.

    Can you let us know if he replied to him?

    He is a bum sniffer of the highest order so he would give some laughable answer to a Geelong player like AC.

    He didn't.

    He didn't.

    he didn't, i believe.

    He would hate that a player directly had a go at his POV.

    So I am happy.

    I disliked Barretts tweet that the Tribunal got it 100% right

    However....

    If you re-read Barretts article - he was expressing thoughts that a lot of us thought. That the MRP and Tribunal doesn't care about actions - only the outcomes. The tribunal rules thats if someone gets injured then someone must pay. Lots thought here that the appeal board wouldn't overturn the decision. What I disliked about the article is he didn't then reach the obvious conclusion that the philosophy is wrong - the philosophy should be judge the action then if guilty take into account the outcome.

    Last night the appeals board took a step away from outcome based decision making.

    read the worms sliding doors article on the doggies, the bloke thinks he has a coach, it's hilarious how little idea he has, thinks they didn't attack enough...

    also expressed his opinion on the MRP in our section without mentioning anything about the game.

    hahahaa the purple headed warrior has NO idea about system.

    the system is designed so that clubs can appeal. thats the whole point!

    does he think that the county court judges have to resign every time an appeal goes to the supreme court and wins?

    The guys a [censored] and knows nothing!

    Plus, he's [censored] ugly as [censored].

    The MRP is where the problem lies. All they can do is tick specific boxes and add up carry over points.

    Shocking system of judiciary.

    Anderson at work.

    His simplistic view that Lynch was injured therefore Viney must go is actually against what the rule is. If it was a collision that was out of his control and he was forced to protect himself then it's not going against the rule. It's in fact working exactly as it should.

    If he deliberately bumps it's a different story.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
