Dawes in trouble ?

Featured Replies

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

What about the elbow from Vlastuin on Tyson today in the 3rd? Surely that's worse than what Dawes did, do afl.com.au have anything to say about that one?

 

I'm not sure what Dawes record is like but I reckon it's a week at worst, I reckon a reprimand and a few points is probably fair.

Is there any footage of the Vlastuin hit on Tyson?

Obviously not on the AFL website because that would be prejudicial.

Not that it really matters. The Deledio incident has set the precedent so elbow away Tiges.

I was listening to Grandstand when it happened and they (McClure et al) were pretty confident he'd get a slap on the wrist and a reprimand.

Fingers crossed.


The folks on the 7 coverage tonight say it will be looked at but nothing in it. I don't think they were taking carryover points into account though. A reprimand would still see him go out for a week.

Maclure is like the anti-MRP. That doesn't impress me.

So what happened??

Anyone got any footage or description? At the game and I missed it

I think it was clumsy and should be a high free kick nothing more.

But if they deem it a strike then he'll go because it was high contact, low impact and will probably be classed as reckless, which will make it a level 2 striking offense.

 

He'll get two weeks. Really bad error.

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.

50m arc Olympic side 2nd quarter.

A very late attempt to spoil contact between chest and neck. Both arms outstretched. A clumsy attempt to disguise what was his intent.

If he has 93 points in the bin and is reckless, high contact, low impact. Say goodbye for 2 weeks. Early plea may get him down to one week.

That's not too bad he gets rid of the points hanging over his head, so shouldn't affect us in the finals..


The very worst it will be, will be 2 weeks downgraded to one with an early plea. So would miss the Port game, but even with him in the team. we wouldn't be much hope of winning anyways (ducks for cover).

Have him fresh to take on the Pies!

What did I just watch?

Is it striking - No.

Is it rough conduct - doubt it.

Yeah ok he follows through to the head but the level of conduct is surely so far below the force required for suspension. It's clear to me Dawes is trying to hamper him from running on and is mainly trying to push in to his body and can't get the hands down quick enough.

If Dawes gets anything at all for this the games a joke. There's no immediate retribution from Rance. His momentum takes him down more than anything and he felt no ill effects.

I dont care if he gets a week, and to be honest he probbaly will

But if he gets 2 he will miss Queens Birthday vs the Pies... that would really really suck

Dawes got a reprimand in round 7 last year?

Have these points expired yet?

2 weeks down to 1 with an early plea wouldn't be the end of the world. Gives him 2 weeks rest with the bye and have him fresh and fired up for queens birthday.

I care. We are an infinitely better team with him on the field.

I care. We are an infinitely better team with him on the field.

I care too, of course I want him to get off

But he will cop a week, just hopefully no more

And even if he gets a week it was well worth it as he set the tone early and left Rance rattled all game!!

how long do carry over points last?

We're not a soft team anymore. There will be casualties.

Geez...was just a playful fist kiss :rolleyes:


If he gets a reprimand, he will miss a week of footy due to carry over points.

I hope it's deemed insufficient force.

I agree with the master in that I don't think it is reportable. However if they decide it is, he will go.

The problem will be when they ask for Richmond for a medical report on Rance. At the time, it took Rance 30 seconds to get his bearings and once up he fell again.

I doubt the Tigers are going to say "nah, he was fine just a bit soft and tried to milk a free from it."

 

Reckless high contact with low force, ball was in play and this is no worse than what deledio go off form, even Stevie j was slipping fists in last night but he's a protected species

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    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.
