this is a serious integrity issue for the afl. i don't think you guys should be trivialising it. before we know it players will be decorating themselves with colourful tattoos and where will we be then? 

Exactly dc if they suspended by area covered we have a couple of players including our captain who are facing lengthy spells in the outer.

Could he get a built coloured Headband Tattoo to get around this.

I think if you need the headband something tells you it may be time for a haircut. But yes I did think it was a bit dramatic putting it on page 2. 

Or it may be it's because he's chosen to have long hair intentionally.  I know that may come as a shock to some.

From the HS article

"But the AFL establishment refused to allow Hunt the freedom of expression, saying all head bands had to be a single colour."

Have the AFL even bothered to look at some of the shoes players wear these days?

Is there no limit to the AFLs capacity to look stupid ?

It's not AFL issue, therefore not allowed.

What would happen, god forbid if there was a Nuclear war and Hunt was wearing the incorrect headband, there would be hell to pay, that's what.

He did up at the GABBA in the early 90s.  It was fluro green, too.  I'd love to see Jake Spencer get one of those over his noggin' on Monday night.

According to Demonwiki, he had the peak ripped off by Dion Scott and the rest of it ripped in half by Matthew Kennedy.  Who did those hacks think they were, touching a gentleman's hat?

I've got to admit - all aspects of that story sound hilarious.

I can't find any picture of it, but I did find this one, which I don't remember him doing:

Typical of someone like Matthew Kennedy to rip the hat in half as well, considering he was only half as good as Jim.

Thank you I stand corrected. Don was a bit of a fashionista in his full length black leather overcoat I guess a cap offended his sense of haute couture

Hah, but no, this was Dion Scott - a fairly modest CHF/Ruckman from Tassie that played for the Bears in the 90s.

Oh I didn't see the "i" Yes and he would have been forgotten if not for the cap episode

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
