What am i missing here?

He missed a training session and is internally suspended by the leadership group.

Awhile ago he was caught drink driving and pretty much gets off scot-free.

So putting lives in danger is nothing and missing training is a big no no.

There must be more to this.

Drink driving was pre finals

    As much as it hurts they are still F1 quality. Return of Roughy should also boost their stocks

    Hawks will go down everone does,  port are bottom 4 with what they have dished up in preseason, their attitude is non interested,  so with the hawks I think they are at the same level as last year they have not improved or gotten worse,  now whether they fall or not depends on how many teams go past them.

    There's hope for Tim Smith in that result. Hope he isn't left on rookie list to rot. Could be difference between finals and not if he gets a decent run.

    Weakest three flags ever, won it in a watered down comp when the lower-mid ranked teams were hurt badly by the plethora of top picks given to GWS and GCS.

    May their demise last for decades.

    They have their rivals, Brisbane the salary cap preferential treatment triple-premiership team.

    Just two triple-premierships in 60 years, and both are at least a little tainted.

    The only answer, of course, is to win a fresh set of our own, to restore dignity to the achievement.

    Burgoyne is 35 this year, Gibson and Hodge 33 - they need all three to be at their best.  Smith, Birchall, Duryea, Whitecross etc look like good ordinary footballers without them.

    Hodgey is a legend so he's allowed to drink drive and that.

    Depends how important the game is,  if it was a final he would not miss a game, essendon are bottom 4 team.

    Would be interested to know your thoughts if we go and win 3 straight under Goodwin.

    AFL funded PJ and Roos, 1 of which is still in his post, and the other has his fingerprints all over what is happening at present.

    I wouldn't give a toss if anyone claimed ours as being "tainted" (as per Little Goffy's comments), and I'm sure as hell that Hawthorn and/or Brisbane supporters care either.

    What evidence is there that the AFL funded them ?

    My understanding is that the AFL "strongly suggested" that the Club employ PJ to help clean up the mess but that his & Roos' salary were paid for by the MFC.

    As much evidence as saying that the Hawks' 3 were in a watered down comp, and that the Lions' 3 were because of COLA.

    We will all believe what we want, but there are 2 things that are certain;

    1. Premierships are bloody hard to win

    2. I will celebrate any MFC premiership, and will be quite arrogant about it, regardless of what other teams think

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
