That's the way Bernie plays, agree with it or not, he won't change. He plays it hard and goes out side the lines but he lets the opposition know he's around.

    The panelists agreed that it appeared to be insufficient force, I missed the clip they played of the incident so I can't comment on it.

    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

    Like muppets, it seems

    He does play hard, but that particular "incident" was neither hard nor outside the lines.   It was a bicep to the back of the neck....would hardly draw a free for high contact, but the MRP just seem to continue to find new ways of proving their inconsistency and incompetence.  

    And I agree that he does need to be very careful - he is being scrutinised.

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

    Absolutely shameful decision

    Shameful decision on Bernies behalf yes.

    Hope the club does not challange one bit.

    It was a soft decision.

    Are you saying he should have got more?

    I keep seeing the vision of him giving Membrey a love tap in the back of the head with his bicep but in the reports it says the suspension is for hitting Webster, were there two incidents?

    There were a few incidents on Saturday where he goes close (and over) the line. He was very lucky last year as they viewed vision but he wasn't cited. They're not accidental. He will hurt you if he can. Not injure but hurt. Make them earn it. I love it. I reckon he was fantastic on Saturday. He's genuine tough, and he's ours. 

    And I'm sad he's missing but I wouldn't change him. He's great.

    Not a leader's bootlace, Bernie. Stupid again. Why do it? You're not being tough.

    Silver lining: Bernie will come into the side round 3 after some rest.

    His previous record cost him here. There was nothing in it, but once your card is marked there isn't anything you can do about it.

    If this is all you base leadership criteria on you should probably start following another sport.

    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!

    mmmm, be careful who you say that to around here...some folks don't take kindly to that talk... effing irresponsible of him.

    Is there the possibility that Vince is being instructed to go out and upset a few opposition players? Even at the risk of an occasional suspension

    Jono Brown was a [censored] leader too then?

    Got what it should have.  Silly from Bernie, but that's who he is.  Don't want him to change.  Take the good with the bad.  

    Off the ball, high and intentional.  Don't really care about "impact", as it's not really a good look.  

    I always remembered the Hawks during their reign pushing the boundaries.  I think this is one of those cases.  Just simply that Bernie went a little too far.  Take the medicine, move on.

    Wright went off for a concussion test afterwards so your claim of ''There was bugger all in it'' just looks silky.

    He is a leader FFS and is prone to sniping every now and then.

    Copped what he deserved and now we move.

    I'm a little annoyed that Varcoe's premeditated full-speed sniper charge that cleaned up an unaware opponent got the same as Vince's idiot flappy-arm moment.

    Did somebody say muppets?

    And some need to take off the red and blue glasses.

    Could learn a thing or two.

    It isn't Membrey. I thought it was at first too because of the arm tatts, but it is actually Wright.

    So it seems the 'bicep' incident is the one...

    Ah ok now I know why I'm confused, was getting Wright mixed up with Webbster

    Why, oh great wise one? What great teachings have you got for us poor, simple weak minded fools.

    The only thing I could possibly learn from your post is that you think your better than others.

    When you over react like Wright did, of course they're going to see if he was not concussed.

     

    Did he return to the field? Yes. Concussed? No.

    FMD.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
