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.

    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?

    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: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
