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: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
