Another Covid breach by Richmond

The arrogance of that club and all involved is amazing. Continually letting them off or penalising them lightly is partly to blame. A monetary fine won’t suffice in this case.

    The AFL already putting their own spin on it and playing it down with the headline. They weren’t “caught up” in it, they were fully involved and subsequently arrested.

    "Unlucky for the staffer/coach you'd say

    Surely some poor bastard isn't going to cop the penalty for two knuckleheads who should already be boarding a plane out !

    It's what happens when the club leaves the adults at home...and the kids in charge.

    Obviously the message isn’t getting through , perhaps taking premiership points might actually deter this?

    Agree... Balme in Melbourne and how many gaffs by Hardwick and his team.

    NO mobile phones. I don't want to hear their whinging either.

    This.

    Premiership points is the only deterrent. What do the players care about a fine paid out by the club? 8 premiership points puts the Tigers battling it out for a finals spot and impacts their peers.

    Perhaps the fine should be taken out of the Total Player Payments and not the livelihood of a staffer/coach.

    Interesting test of the so called independent journalists in AFL media.

    Nothing obvious on the AFL website 2 hours after the story has broken

    I think this incident really highlights the double standards with which the exemptions that the football community has received to be able to move across borders relative to the rest of us in society (except those with money and influence).  It’s actually just plain wrong , part of me wants Anastasia to just pull the pin on this season , morally there is something that doesn’t sit right with me that the afl will find a [censored] way to wriggle out of this like they always do, they treat the public with contempt 

    the afl are arrogant, maybe a harsh lesson is required here

    Surely Browne’s parents pay Channel 7 for him to work there. He can’t string a sentence together and his grammar is shocking.

    So Tom Brown is saying the merchant terminal should really be taking the fall ?

    Propaganda machine in full swing aided by the media. It doesn't matter if they were drunk or not, it doesn't matter who started the fight. The point is why were they out at 3 in the morning in the Gold Coast crook city area. Stop the spin.

    Interesting the kebab guy reckons ‘not drunk’. Not sure about others experiences, but I’d find it rather difficult to stomach a 3.30am kebab after a couple of bags at the strippers!

    A police officer once told me nothing good happens after 3 am. And a full moon makes it 100 times worse.

    Oh come come Deemented you are being far too cynical. I’m sure lots of sober people crave a delicious kabab at 3am down Cavill Avenue , washed down with a raspberry Powerade . It’s just coincidental that the kebab shop happened to be located next to an exotic entertainment venue.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
