Reported on 3AW tonight that Carlton submitted a report to the AFL re Rowe's postmatch headaches.

Carlton dogged on us.

A club I genuinely hate.

Sore losers can't help but sook it up. 

Theyre pathetic and going nowhere

Lewis would be thinking wtf is this [censored]?

At Hawthorn he would've gotten one week.

Time to lawyer-up, MFC.

Probably wondering why he didn't get a free kick...

No, I'm not Rodney Grinter either. 

EXactly! [censored] this soft [censored] go watch the EFL or Yarra Valley.. We were always going to get done no matter what -, Lewis has a bad record, as soon as he farted in a demon guernsey he would go -  last time we were a bunch of bad boys we were playing finals year in year out - Grinter, O'Dwyer, Viney, Bailey, Yeats, Hughes, Chiron, Fidge - plenty of bad asses. Either play bruise free footy or get stuck in - we have the depth.. you cannot always have your cake and eat it..I'd rather take the suspensions and walk tall than be accused of bruise free footy and get hysterical over a keyboard how soft we were.

Just saw a replay of Hogans "hit." 100% it was an open hand slap. Crock of [censored]. Rowe acted, no doubts. 

Carlton are angry they lost a game they thought they'd win.

Carlton are a bunch of wankers, glory days long gone glad to see them lose.My old demon scarf had the bloodstains of a blueboy on them, the day we went top in 88' beating them at Princes Park.

Ethan I have just taken photos of Hogans open hand before and at contact from AFL tonight vision.

Sent them to WJ and hopefully he will put them up on Demonland.

If somebody else knows how to do it let me know and I will forward photos.

PS. Just sent them to Jon Ralph.

Just to upset you all some more.

Crows Tom Lynch broke Birchall's jaw with a forearm, which Dermie called deliberate this afternoon on SEN.

Guess what, no penalty.

Preust in a cowardly act, jumped into a Geelong player's back with his knee after the mark was taken. Could have crippled him. Most media thought 2-3 weeks.

Guess what no penalty.

The one referred to by many on here, the Scott Thomson elbow to Danger's jaw, which most media thought was 2-3.

Guess what, penalty one week. 

Me personally, I could live with accepting the penalties, as long as the club stood up for the players and supporters, incurred the fine and blasted the MRP, highlighting the above. 

Good call, except the AFL have shown how farken vindictive they can be. That's the problem... Gardiner once said to me "Can't fight city hall" unfortunately he was not far wrong....life sucks at times but we just gotta keep on doing. If the dishlickers can win a premiership then we  can!

they teach you in karate how you can kill with an open hand (using the bottom of the palm) specifically with a jab action

so the open hand vs fist depends on how it is delivered

HTF does Scott Thompson (with his equally bad record in comparison with Lewis) get one week for his hit on Dangerfield and our blokes get 3 and 2 respectively? The MRP is garbage. But we knew that.

I wonder if Rowe got concussion after he threw his arms and legs out sideways 1/2 a second after reacting to the Hogan hit? Landed pretty hard.

SEN saying the medical report on Rowe says delayed concussion, thus the medium impact ruling! Both Carlton guys must have a glass jaws. 

So they test him after the fact and say it delayed yet didn't test him at the time to find out if it was there then. Sounds more and more like they either played the rules to keep them our there or put in the fix to get the boys rubbed out. AFL need to ask Carlton some questions, will never happen though.

The Age is reporting MFC will not appeal either case.

The Club confident we have enough depth? 

The Club letting players take responsibility for their actions?

Either way it is certainly a swift and calm reaction.  That alone is reassuring.

Sorry MFC

Weak as ....

I think that's what gets me as well. We cop our whack that's fine but it really feels like they threw the book at us and threw a pillow at everyone else. 

Scott Thompson in particular I thought was worse than Hogan's. That sort of action can some serious damage with the elbow.

What would you appeal with? Lewis was off the ball, Cripps has a fractured jaw, and Lewis has a bad record. 

Hogan I could maybe see it being reduced but again what do you argue? Less impact? Off the ball always carries more weight too. 

We have to cop it, the only thing I would say is it'd be fair for the club to say "well hold on, what about the other reported incidents. Where's the consistency?"

As I posted above I have photos of Hogans open hand at contact. That is a fend off, maybe crude, but not a punch and is therefore careless, not intentional and Rowe has his hands on Hogan at the time.

Hopefully they are posted on here soon and we can all have a look at what actually happened.

Good luck with that, we'd have Hogan out for 3 and Lewis out for 4 in 2 minutes. We'd have to actually prove something to get them reduced. As I said Hogan's is the only one I could see that working for, would've expected a similar outcome to Vince's MRP report last week.

This current system doesn't seem to deliver players a fair ruling and then if they have a good record the option to reduce. It weights it against the possibility of an appeal to get their desired penalty. 

They wanted him out for two weeks and they got it, they knew we wouldn't risk losing him for three.

I thought it looked like Hogan went to push him off but it slipped up. Should reduce the intentional.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
