Dawes in trouble ?

Unless they deem the contact/impact too low for a report , then he is in trouble.

 

He'll get a week

He'll get a week

Which is ok because it's the bye.

Yep - one week. Stupid thing to do really. It wasn't body contact or presence-pressure, but unnecessary use of his arms. He would have been very important vs Port.


If he gets one week he'll be cherry ripe for Queen's Birthday. Ready to rip someone's head off. I'd take that.

I've noticed it creeping into the game and Dawes does it a bit. Pushing the player in the chest who is disposing of the ball to stop him running on. Dawes does it all the time.unfortunately got him high.

This is where the system is flocked. Chapman clocked two blokes with a raised arm and I was staggered that noting much was made of both.

 

Does he have carry over points? It could be deemed low impact

I reckon he might have a week or two off.

Hope not but this is Melbourne and we always (sorry most of the time) get screwed over.

Very stupid thing for him to do. He has been injured for such a long time and we didn't need this.


I missed it, which end was it and what did he do?

I was up the city end and didn't notice him do anything wrong.

A late slap that wouldn't have knocked the fluff off a cappuccino. Boom boom.

But unfortunately dropped the Richmond player like he was shot!!

Was that a double shot?

Probably Gawn for a week or so, knowing our luck. Hope Chip will be up and about.


Just challenge whatever weeks he gets. Put him in a Collingwood tie and the bafoons at the tribunal will let him off.

The one thing in his favour was that, even though it took Rance 30 seconds to get his bearings, he played out the game with no troubles and didn't require anything like a concussion test. Hopefully he gets a reprimand with some carryover points as, really, there was little in it, but who knows what the MRP will do these days...

Barely touched Rance, he got up and had no ill effects from it. Nothing to worry about.

Actually this may be in his favour.

How is his record? Id assume a slap on the wrists if he has been good in the past.


He'll get a week, was unnecessary.

Like Deledio deliberately elbowing someone in the face a couple of weeks ago and getting a reprimand?

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
