The same as Oliver according to Mr MRO. Also, Lewis received a $1500 fine for misconduct.

Edit: $1500 for Lewis with an early plea.

You’re right, there’s no detail of the actual incidents, it only states Lewis’ misconduct was against Mathieson in the second quarter.

Well it was Mathieson so he should be forgiven.

I love that he's an angry kid, but he needs to really learn to control how he reacts to taggers, because the least helpful thing he can do for the team is get suspended. 

We need him in the side, and he should take tagging as flattery and another challenge he needs to overcome, not as an excuses to release his frustrations.

He is treading a fine line, and until he gains Hodge like status, the MRP and umpires will continue to punish him for every little indiscretion. 

 

I get your post but its the nature of the beast so to speak.

Think john mcenroe.

 

Tacked onto the original Oliver fine this is a bit misleading, I went looking to see what he'd been fined for, but only Lewis has been fined.  It should have it's own thread.

In the report it said the Brisbane doctor was consulted. Probably lucky we weren't playing Carlton or Lewis would probably be out for 3 weeks for whatever he did.

They initially thought Lewis had taken Mathieson's head clean off during an attempted tackle. Luckily their doctor found it hidden inside his jumper.

...so not the back part of his shorts where it should be put.

Nathan Jones, Melbourne, has been charged with misconduct against Jack Newnes, St Kilda, during the third quarter of the Round Seven match between Melbourne and St Kilda, played at Etihad Stadium on Sunday May 6, 2018.

In summary, he can accept a $1500 sanction with an early plea.

Misconduct is fixed financial sanction of $2500. The player can accept a $1500 sanction with an early plea. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Contact between St Kilda’s Jake Carlisle and Melbourne’s Jesse Hogan from the third quarter of Sunday’s match was assessed. The ball was kicked through for a point with Carlisle and Hogan coming towards the goal square, after the ball has passed the line and registered a score. On the behind-goal vision, Carlisle turns toward Hogan and makes contact with an open hand to the throat area of the Melbourne player. The umpire in control of the play is within five metres and pays a free kick to Hogan for high contact. It was the view of the Match Review Officer that there was high contact made to the Melbourne player and the contact was not excessively exaggerated by Hogan. It was also the view of the match review officer that the force used in the contact was below that required for a charge to be laid, and no further action was required after the free kick was paid.


And it appears the punch to the stomach is now only a fine, after Steele dropped Max in the last quarter.  Initially I thought he had gone down with an injury it was that forceful. 

Max was furious and at the next ruck contest invited him to stand a little closer....which Steele refused to do.

Good to hear that the match review officer is an expert on "perforated wind pipe" matters.

Just picked up on this.

Does anyone have any idea of the nature of our captain’s misconduct.

Doesn't Christian have to specify anything more than “misconduct”?

And doesn’t  a chop to the throat qualify as misconduct.

Fair dinkum, this Guy is far worse than the old MRP ever was.  A law unto himself.

Does that tossed Christian just have to say “misconduct” to fill Gill’s coffers?

What is the allegation?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
