I'd challenge it. AFL has a systemic problem when love taps like that cops week and Rance gets the same for a blatant fist to the head. If that player didn't roll around like a [censored] it wouldn't have been brought up. I thought he hit Membrey. Report says Wright, is it a different incident ? 

 

Challenge it. 

The old 2 down to 1 strategy is just a security blanket for the people making the decision. It forces the player to suck it up even though the decision is unreasonable.

Idiot. Has a track record of this behaviour. I hope Goody tears him a new one. Just dumb.

Yep. Vince is playing like the coach is his mate at the moment. Needs a lesson sent. Better hope it doesn't cost his team mates.

Agreed. Varcoe was far more dangerous. He came in at top speed

Forget about challenging it, how about pulling up the bloke that has a issue of doing it time after time.

Pull your head in Bernie!

Players get sucked in by his antics and more often than not, it really does seem to throw them off their game.

This time he crossed the line. Didn't look like there was much in it, but sure... Cop the week, it is what it is.

Yep just silly bring Tyson in for him, tell Bernie no guarantees to get your spot back gonna have to fight for it 


Bernie needs to understand that there's a power of the badge vindictiveness that operates in this space ie he has trodden a very fine line on a number of occasions and quite possibly been given the benefit of the doubt.  The expectation is that he learns from it and curbs his tendencies.   Absent that, you have to expect this sort of outcome.  Because they can.

Just been released - 2 weeks for striking (intentional), low impact. Down to 1 week with an early plea

Casboult got a fine for rough conduct (careless), low impact.

Not sure how these muppets operate

Agree that it's stupid, and agree that he needs to be taught a lesson (and what better a week than when we have carlton???). But Geez the MRP has no idea, if they were consistent i wouldn't have a problem, but if consistency was tattooed on their foreheads they still wouldn't have any idea.

This concept of harmcaused being applicable to the punishment is stuffed.

Bernie gave the bloke a low impact bicep to the head. Potential for damage from bicep = [censored] all.

Varcoe runs through a guys jaw with his shoulder and gets the same. Varcoe could have knocked that guy into next week ffs

Will go for 2 but for an early plea will get one. He never seems to learn unfortunately, as he has done this before! 

Cmon Bernie!! 

Got it in one PF. People need to take their red and blue glasses off. If it happened to a Melbourne player, it would be described as a dog act. It was forearm to back of the head, behind play to an unsuspecting opponent. The fact that Membrey stayed down, didn't help Bernie's case. With  priors, he deserves what he got.

The club must challenge this. We wont be pushed around.

Absolutely shameful decision

Collected him in the back of the head. It was really stupid. If your going to get suspended Bernie you should at least make them pay for it.

Accept the 1 match suspension and move on.

 

In other news... Varcoe nearly [censored] killed someone. 1 week.

It wasn't a forearm... it was the bicep and if you started taking into account players who act hurt in order to get a free then half the comp will get suspended

So Varcoe should get 3....

  • 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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
