It really is a nothing story but to be honest I never got why footy players/athletes were prone to this kind of behaviour. Combined with the desire to dress in women's clothes for "player review" type functions and it seems there's a lot of repressed stuff going on there

    It's a different situation to Richmond's.

    It's still stupid.

    But that's not the issue. The issue is whether Hunt and Petracca were properly listening to Goodwin or just mucking around.

    Exhibit A: Luke Hodge saying he doesn't like the shortened game, he  just doesn't like the 90 minute game. Much prefers the old hour and a half game...

    Exactly. 

    Nothing to see here with this. 

    Yes and no. I would think [censored] farting around during 3 qtr time while the coach is delivering his message is disrespectful. Its no wonder we went to sleep that last quarter. 

    Sums up our year as well.

    I said this somewhere else but seeing as we aren’t a big club you can expect us to probably cop fines and/or suspensions for this. 
    That way the AFL can make it seem like they are reacting to this whilst not hurting a club they care about.

    Maybe Gooodwins final message was “okay boys, give each other a pinch on the bum and get back out there”!

    Clearly, it's no big deal, but it gives ammunition to the professionally aggrieved.  They'll love it and use their soapbox.

    Exactly - no big deal but after the carry on in the Richmond rooms then anyone with half a brain wouldn't do it - therein lies the answer.

    I wish AFL media would steer clear of commentary designed to incite what the public should be outraged about every week

    I don’t really care about an [censored] squeeze or the finger up the date, but the worst bit is it is at 3 quarter time with our season on the line. Of course Essendon piled on a few goals straight after that very break as well.

    When did fingering your mate's balloon knot become a thing? I really have no idea why it's done and why people defend it. It's not normal in any way

    All media for that matter.

    My main issue here is the skylarking during the coaches address at 3/4 time before our most important quarter of the season. 

    Sure we had a healthy lead and looked like we were going to cruise to victory but we have this habit of going to sleep and not being switched on and then we concede multiple goals. 

    Now I’m beginning to see why. 

    This issue of not being switched on needs to be addressed in 2021. 

    Didn’t someone of note at Melb, recently say the club needed to grow up... hhhmmmm.

    Now I know why Hunt is such an accurate and composed goal kicker. He practises hard to get on target. And CP5 has also improved markedly  in finding the goals.

    Mind-boggling stupidity and lack of professionalism and respect.

    They’re at work.
    They've been explicitly told not to do it.
    They did it anyway.

    AFL doesn’t like it, sponsors don’t like it and members (as it was leading into the most important quarter of the year) don’t like it.

    Gives an insight into some players focus and mindset.  If we’ve ever wondered how we don’t turn up to play in big matches or drop the easy ones...

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
