Anyone remember what penalty Lewis got for his bite on Todd?

A set of falsies?

    I remember the incident clearly

    it was a close call that some of the crowd didn't jump the fence. 

    The most fired up MFC crowd i can remember

    Seriously a reprimand for biting is a disgrace. I'm not saying he should've been give a massive ban but I think a week minimum for one of the lowest acts you can do is warranted. Clearly the way Oliver reacted he wasn't impressed.

    Seriously if we had an incident that a player got a reprimand for something but the resulting reaction on the park meant we got a 50m penalty and a shot on goal I'd take the reprimand!

    ... especially if we won by less than a goal!!

    "The Myke": a limp-wristed slap with wet lettuce for doing something reprehensible.

    I think the only explanation is that Pickett is in fact Myke Cook and is so ashamed of what he's done, he can't bring himself to post his apology on this forum....

    Myke has been given a reprimand having pled guilty to misconduct.

    He gets a reprimand and we cop a 50m penalty and a goal. FMD what a joke. Lucky it wasn't a close game.

    Our history with the VFL tribunal has been appalling. Sylvia having his jaw broken and Rohan Bail getting king hit behind play....

    Myke didn't just get a reprimand for his bite, he also got a free kick, a 50 metre penalty, and a goal!

    If I was him I would go around biting everyone as he has clearly come out in front in that deal!

    One of the most extraordinary rulings I've ever heard.  Probably the most extraordinary decision.  You deliberately bite a finger and get reprimanded ?  Incredible.

  • Quote

    Have written to the VFL.  Un[censored]believeable.

  • Quote

    While not defending the action or the decision, I wonder if the fact Oliver was shoving his fingers in the guys face at the time was taken into account and is part of the reason for such a weak punishment?

    So let's tell kids all through Victoria that it's ok to bite your opponent whilst playing footy. 

    Kids in minor leagues will bite now....

    FFS the VFL should be discontinued if that is their attitude

    it is now a more dangerous workplace

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • 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?

    • 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.

    • 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.
