Wasn't it Carlton supporters a few years back smashing on the back of the oppositions bench desperate to attack an opposition player? This mob are ferals and have now been given a free pass, or that's how they'll see it. When next we meet them I can almost guarantee it will be ugly, and the blues banner will almost certainly incite them.

This is poor, poor form from the AFL.

    Scragged - Clarry's fault

    Calls that waste of a cricket spot Marin a choker - Again Clarries fault

    Gets hands on from a [censored] with ears - I think you know the drill

     

    Stating to see a pattern here... Go hard boys. Smash them all. We are going to be damned if we do and damned if we don't so lets get hung for the sheep. Make them bleed.

     

    Oh, and AFL house must be destroyed.

    Scott just said in afl360 that Melb and Oliver are the bigger men because they appologised first and blame is 50/50 with that moron.

    Does Clayton feel left out to dry? Doubt it

    Do they need to publicly decry touching Clarrie - nope.

    Only occupiers of Melbourne based forums get caught up in this...

    This is a different MFC that does not get caught up in nor comment on extraneous vapid crap, rather than give it air and take away from the task of what they are ultimately aiming for.

    Thank god for that.

    This is very much the 'missing' element.

    No accountability at all by the AFL about the spectator, none by that scummy club or any contrition by the fwit himself. Quite the opposite indeed as he supposesca sense of righteous indignation !! 

    Poor show all around

    Just remembering now...the AFL take action against a young girl who abuses Adam Goodes. They take action against a Port supporter who abuses Eddie Betts. But in this instance, Clearance, is counselled and told to apologise after being abused. 

    From a regulatory position, there seems to be a whole lot of inconsistency, so I guess if the fish rots from the head, no wonder the MRP etc etc etc etc

    Clarry shouldn't have put himself in that situation, but he is not 100% liable as the majority have made him out to be.

    Sure educate him on how to better deal with such situations, but christ, i'm hoping behind closed doors the club have supported him 100% and left him in no doubt that they have his back,

    We have more important things to worry about than this attention-[censored], starting with this week. Nonetheless, Clarry should have the clubs backing and know he has the clubs backing (i don't have to see it publicly, just hope it is being given).

    It was AFL Tonight. Sarah Jones accidentally said Oliver kicked Cripps as Oliver was the next story. 

    Simple mistake, like posting the name of the wrong show.

    Sorry but I still dont see how you can lay your hands on a player.....yeah lets move on, but I hope this isnt setting a precedent for another incident some day in the future to another player.

    It certainly won't set a precedent, because if this happens to a player from any other club, their club will be all over it like a rash before the dust settles. It will, however, make it more likely that it will happen again.

    Yes spot on and it will happen again, very poor from both clubs and the AFL. Just wait and see when some moron has a few too many and a player gets hurt. I always thought if you touch a player when he is on the field it's a fine; but what do i know? 

    I am quite staggered that the AFL has done this. Clayton shouldn't have reacted the way he did, i get that. But for that little  madonna loving Carlscum turd to provoke it all, and then ask for an apology, and then get it,with no penalty to himself???

    Wow  A player is going to really cop it at some stage, and it will be The AFL's fault

    then they will build wire fences between the Stands and the Oval

    Gill will remain silent

    I stated my view early in this thread but I'll now refine it a little.

    First. I've got no problem with a supporter giving it to an opposition player. Footy is a sport that titillates the emotions. To be honest I've demonstrated my vitriolic best toward both oppo players and umpires over the years.

    Second. I've certainly got no problem with the player giving a bit back.

    However, in life you must learn that it if you're prepared to dish it out be ready to cop it back.

    And this it what shits me about this issue.

    We now have a situation where a fat useless [censored] gets an apology and is made some sort of a victim/hero among his equally useless pizzant mates because he hasn't got the balls to take his whack.

    What a weak [censored]. [censored] me, how does someone like that look his spineless self in the mirror.

    Society is just becoming soft.

    If he had not chased the ball he would have been called soft , so he was in a no win situation

    melbourne just probably aplogised so the story is finished. Clayton probably wanted to apoligise or the club said to, for what he said. AFL arent doing anymore. Lets move on. 

    But gee if every player reacted to what was said about them in the crowd then there would be confrontations every week. Lewis was right. Just got to ignore it. 

    I just hope we can get through this week against the crows without any incidents. 

    Like others in this thread, missed the point entirely. Clarrie lost his bottle because of being manhandled by a spectator, not because of what he said.

    Can you recall any other player being pushed by a spectator during the game? 

    Would love, incidentally, to have seen what Lewis would have done in the same situation. Turned the other cheek? Not.

    clarry on tv interview tonight ch9 denied that he had threatened to kill........take what you will

    Yes, but again the club hasn't stood up for him so again nobody will believe him.

    Maybe, again, the club doesn't believe him. That's one comment I heard post-Schofield - "even the club doesn't believe he didn't dive, because they don't want to back him up."

    I think it was afl tonight. They were talking about Crippps being injured. The footage shown  was when Hunt kicked someone I think Cripps in the back of the leg when going for ball. They said it was Clayton Oliver and the next segment was the incident on the boundary with you know who again.

    They stuffed up said it was Oliver instead of HUnt.

    Yeah but don't worry, "let's move on"

    He"s a Madonna fan as well as being an attention seeking ugly [censored].

    The club can move on but I need some time to abuse this poor excuse for a man.

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
