AFL will use the “we didn’t get the medical report back in time” excuse again

It's really a disgrace how they bend over backwards not to suspend big name players. It's beyond time where the media should be calling them out on it.

    "I agree with the AFL's approach, you want the best players out there playing so I'd hope there's consistency in that."

    What I take from that is he’s happy for someone to clean him up come next weekend.

    Seems that way doesn’t it.

    Dangerfield is absolutely trying to influence the AFL.  UNBELIEVABLE ARROGANCE. 

    Hawkins deserves 2 weeks minimum.  Head high. Off the ball. Medium impact.

    I am overseas at the moment and planned my trip around being home for the GF and watching the Dees win a flag - seriously what was I thinking??

    Clearly, you're stark raving mad like all the rest of us.

    Seriously, if you weren't, we'd think there was something wrong with you.

    An aside

    just turned on to watch the Storm who play in an hour and caught the last half of the NRL women's match.

    Excellent quality. As a sport it it appears to be far more transferable quality wise between the genders.

    1 week.  Doubtless will win no-risk appeal.  Staged.

    In fairness to my mental state, my husband is a Pies supporter so there was no chance I can extend my holiday even if I want to. I have told him he can go home and I will linger in Italy a bit longer but he was not too impressed with that idea ???

    EAD Hawkins. You might kick lots of goals but you’ve always been a staging and sniping piece of [censored]. 

     

    Clearly I’m a fan.

    That would explain a fair bit. What a double whammy. I have no such excuse, being the only football follower in my family. Locked in a prison of my own making. Which may be worse? Even contemplating that could drive me mad(der).

    Hawkins should have been rubbed out for 4 to 6 with his record of brutality and shifty behind play incidents and i wouldn't have him at MFC either. This game was set up for Sooky and his team to win no matter what,  with the phone calls flying between the AFL and the cats saying things like.........how much off ball interference can we get away with, "Christo" and his (ex cat) mate, and then along comes dopey..

     A pathetic umpiring performance wher the maggots had been instructed to not allow a Team to proceed further that had dared to make a laughing stock of the AFL.......no votes from me!!!!

    Graded as intentional, high contact with a low impact 

    If it were a boxing match it would be a KO punch. Schofield was down for at least the full 10 count. Low impact is a joke.

    I wonder if the lions got into the finals a year to early. So far they aren't really handling the start gws have got off to and when you see Hodgey kicking it out on the full it's not a great start. 

    I just wonder if the giants if they get through next week have the guts to apply the same tactics against the pies.

    Dangerfield is happy for one of the ‘best’ players to clean him up.  So Lachie Neale is welcome to punch him in the face, without any recriminations.

    Best quarter of footy I’ve watched all year. Had it all. Cameron is a dead set champ playing through the pain. I though he had busted his arm. Carn the bears!

    toby is the ultimate villain. Love to hate him and wish we had him

    Fabulous quarter... there's a few GWS players who don't like to work hard the other way too often.  Hard working teams who can maintain possession  reasonably well will find them out

    No quarter given by either team....both playing socially unfriendly footy.

    Robertson's little back slap on Whitfield right in the small of the back where he'd just taken a hit to put him down again.  Classic

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
