What, an open handed tap to the chest that had no reaction!  . 

It wasn't even a push!!  What sort of medical report did they get?

No wonder the MRP didn't describe the 'incident' - there wasn't one!

I call BS!

No offence to netballers but ....

If that was deemed misconduct then surely Jacobs needs to go for pushing him into the other players.

There was more chance of damage (very, very little) from that incident.

When I first saw that video I genuinely thought they had put up the wrong video because I didn't see anything worthy of penalty.  On re-playing, I saw Oliver pushed in the back and thought he must have done something wrong after he got his free kick.  MRP on track for another outstanding year.   

Perhaps this will help Oliver control himself from whacking players during the season - because you never know when they will duck as you swing and you get suspended.

Umpires obviously starting their rubbish decisions quite early this season. Clarry or anyone for that matter gets pushed through marking contests or packs of any kind should be watched by the powers/t/b closely. Most players relax at whistle and idiots pushing players into fences or packs can cause harm. Grow up Umpires and be on to it.........

$1500 for that.
Gotta be kidding.

And North put in a medical report. What bulltish. Comical behaviour by North and the AFL. Bloody hell.

I don’t even know what to say about that.

If he got fined for that then, yeah, I’m speechless.

I look forward to this interpretation being consistently and impartially applied throughout the year.

Perhaps it was a closed fist.  Christian sis say he was going to come down hard on any punching, including to the body.  Open hand, next time.  Weak as pizz, honestly.  Glad they posted it, coz I missed it entirely!

Yeah thats what i was thinking. MRP probably trying to send an early message. IF it was a closed fist, take the fine and learn from it.

If it was an open hand it couldnt have possibly been fine-worthy.

Softest decision I've ever seen. An open palm shove to the chest with low force after being pushed in the back? If that warrants a fine, then surely tackling your opponent now warrants a 3-4 weeks suspension?

I really hope we smash this arrogant bunch of tossers in round 3...

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
