Wayne Bennett suspended from coaching Souths this weekend against his old mob the Broncos after breaching covid protocols. ( eating in a restaurant with wife). 

I'm still unsure how Bucks was able to coach last round

Reallly?  Remind me, what club does he coach?  Who is their president?

He admitted fault cos he had some fault in it. Hardly think it's this conspiracy some are trying to make it out to be.

Cleary actually broke an AFL Media protocol of not reporting the names of family members who break protocol.

Perhaps a bit less speedy with the insults and outrage until all the facts come out.

Even then, not sure why the insults are necessary tbh.

Nev this post is not directed at you but at the highlighted point you raised. 

Every reporter that reported on the story has named Ms Cotchin, have they been suspended?

Ms Cotchin outed herself. 

I cannot see how reporting on a public post leads to Cleary's suspension, all the suspension does is draw more attention to Ms Cotchin. 

The stupidity of people that post photos of themselves breaking rules/laws staggers me. They deserve whatever comes their way. 

I note that Cleary admitted doing the wrong thing, I suspect he wants to continue AFL reporting.

I guess it's a bit like an embargo, once the first person has reported it then it's 'out there'. Also, not every reporter is employed by AFL media and has the same agreed rules as them.

Totally agree she outed herself and it was dumb. I also think a warning to Cleary would have been more than enough.

Cleary did the wrong thing and admitted it. I don't get why people are making up conspiracies about something so simple.

Ummm.... wtf was going through their head?

More players break the rules: covid-breach-port-stars-set-to-cop-bans-after-entertaining-visitors

Should get the same suspension as young Elijah Taylor of the Swans:  out for the season (plus solitary confinement in his room for 14 days to quarantine). 

Throw the book at them.  If they miss playing in finals bad luck!

Idiots for risking the competition.

I am sure I remember early on in this COVID season planning there was discussion that any breaches (by players, officials or WAGS) would result in immediate end of season for the offenders,  however as some of the higher profile breaches involved Collingwood and Richmond high profile individuals, nothing meaningful has happened.

Now would it be different for example if ANB had committed a breach (of course before he was suspended)?

If it was AVB he'd be put to the guillotine

Is Trenners still on the list?

Why weren't we awarded the four points when Essendon could not take the field?

Because that isn’t in the script.

Big chance it would have been if the roles were reversed.

That is in the script.

Wait and see the next ANB type tackle and if it’s a name player, watch the way it is differentiated and penalised.

 The Cotchin’s are self-entitled bogans and the AFL are pathetic. 

I believe the term these days is "CUBs"
Cashed Up Bogans.
 

I'm so sick of hearing the term 'WAGS' whenever I hear it I don't get the impression of innocent family and wife I just think of spoiled idiots that have no idea that being in the hub is a privilege and not a right. Any story that contains that term is usually nothing but trouble.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
