Jayden Hunt's headband banned by AFL

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.

Thankfully  no dc.

I did not see the game it was not on 7 so I know that means it was not on!!!!!!

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.

 

Didn't Jim Stynes wear a hat in one game??

Just as long as this all doesn't culminate in a man bun!

That should have been banned already.....DEEscusting!

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?

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.

It was a cap and if my memory serves me properly, it was pulled off in the forward pocket by some Richmond scum.

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

IMHO young Hunt has far too much hair on his head and should give some to Nathan Jones.

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.

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

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
