Thanks for that. Fingers crossed May is ok. Hawkins has form with 'accidental' elbows, so I'd definitely be on reckless side of fence 

 

Accidental elbows.

How convenient.

Slow mo looks like his forearm smacked his face in the tackle as he was trying to get rid of the ball. Maybe accidental, but gees Hawkins has form. 
May looked horrible going off. Hopefully it’s not a break.

Yep, you don't need to convince me. Still game day so I've still got my Red and Blue goggles on. Hang him!!

    Umps disgusting in that term.

    I love the pressure that we are applying.

    Still room to improve from several of the boys.

    Poor Maysie.  Looking at the way his eye blew up, unfortunately it's looking like a potential fracture.  Hope I'm wrong.

    Petty can step in and do the job. Has been in super form down at Casey.

    My fingers are like icicles, so not going to try and navigate my way back through thread. 

    Can someone with benefit of replays tell me what happened to May? His contest with Hawkins was right in front of me, but it looked pretty innocuous until he didn't get up 

    Mays elbows suddenly beame possessed your honor.

    He through one up as he was turning and caught poor May in the eye.

    Lots of blood and May looked dizzy.

    Not good.

    Take the red and blue glasses off I have watched the Hawkins hit 10 times now, it was an accident 100% may contributed by pulling Hawkins towards him

    Depends on whether the tribunal is adjudicating based on intent or result this week.

    should get a tap on the shoulder based on form and how the reckless action resulted in a busted eye socket... or the commentary team will write the conversation as an accident and move on.

    more likely the latter than former sadly. I hope he’s just a little groggy and dazed for a week instead of becoming another 426

    Dermie was quick to say it was an accident just prove it was deliberate. Selwood is without doubt my most hate opposition player. Yes Brayshaw was a little late but Selwood would do Laurence Olivier pround. Then he has the gall to whinge. Pathetic

    One of the most disgraceful umpiring performances ive seen in that 5 minute period in the 2nd.  We should have been running it up the field for a shot at goal instead he calls holding the man when it should've clearly been holding the ball. 

    Two holding the balls that were 50/50 against us in our forward line against Frittata & Sparrow yet the Cats don't get called for similar and then get a reverse call instead.  Faaark off Umps!

    It was actually a free to Jetta against Menegola but Jetta then slung him. Reversed free. Then Gus bumped Selduck after he disposed.

    I’ve only seen drips and drabs but despite inaccurate in front of goal best footy we have played all year?

    It’s such a strange game as it lols like we’re playing an under 16s side at times, we’re doing so easy, but as always we can’t get it into fwd 50 enough. Finally towards the end of the qrt we did convert.

    Anyone see what Selwood said briefly to Kossie as they were coming off??

    Typical Selwood having a sook at the umps coming off.

    Lower you head some more, scumbag.

    Nibbler and Jordy fire up fellas


    A few of passengers, Jordan, Sparrow, Jones, ANB and Melksham. 

    Get involved, do some magic.

    Wish we could hold simpler marks and kick set shots.

    Playing well otherwise, good game plan. Good running and breaking lines, swarming attack and defence. 

    Keep at it Dees.

    Viney WTF have a shot mate

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
