Many people and children have been ripped open by them.

This is what that saying,  represents.

Point taken, this can be true, but I was thinking more of dogs as loyal, loving pets. Humans do a lot of damage as well. Plus dogs need to be trained and restrained. They are pack animals and there is always a leader. The human owner needs to be the strong leader and be the boss of the dog, but with discipline and kindness, not cruelty. They are need a lot of commitment to look after and personally I have never owned a dog because of the work load this entails. People don't realize they are a big responsibility and shouldn't take them on if they haven't got the time to look after them and train them. 

One of the reasons I objected to the saying was I have seen humans do some terrible things to animals, watching animal rescue channels. Even after being abused, these dogs and cats look for love and affection from humans even after being tortured by them.

 

Stratton received 2 one week suspensions to be served sequentially so is out for two weeks.

Strong and damning words from  AFL QC Jeff Gleeson:  Stratton’s pinching was “deliberate, calculated, considered and sly”...[and] he intended to hurt.

Appropriate result.

So let me get this straight, if i punch someone in the 1st quarter then again in the 2nd and again in the 3rd and then stomp on a player and then continue to punch someone I get a total of 2 weeks. 

I say ten pinches 10 weeks, 1 stomp 4 weeks. 14 weeks in total.

The stomp I agree is a serious offence. You can easily break delicate foot bones and sideline a bloke for weeks doing that. 3 for the stomp, 1 for pinching. 4 weeks sounds right.

One offence committed multiple times. If I get caught on a speed camera 10 times in a day do I get one fine for speeding or ten? MB  3 for the stomp sounds fair and 1 week for each pinch not to be served concurrently. AFL making it up as they go!

At least you didn't call them parasites like that actual parasite Waleed Aly did last night on TV.

What a hateful scumbag he is.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
