    Can someone please explain to leave it to deever that he can press the mute button and that he is not being forced to listen to the commentators.

    Toby should be safe.

    Commentators so keen to condemn him they failed to notice that Danger started to squat to tackle but his left leg slides out from under him.  Had he not slid the elbow/arm would have got Danger in the chest.  

    Also Fritsch got off on something similar (the forearm).  The Tribunal set a precedent in the recent Buddy case of accepting similar incidents as evidence so they will have to accept the Fritsch decision.

    I think Careys correct in saying that now Danger has gone to hospital tg is gone.

    I felt that for the action Fritta was very lucky, but given recent results with the tribunal he should be fine. A lot more split second than Buddy who shifted the ball to the other arm in order to elbow the tackler. 

    Consistency says that he shouldn’t get suspended.

    Generally speaking, perhaps.  Please be gentle with me on this.

    In play + reasonable to try fend off + Danger slipped =  No case to answer.

    As comparison:  Hawkins had no case to answer with his (well disguised) elbow to the head of May.  I can't remember the rating but probably, careless, high (head), high impact as May was hospitalised and missed a week.  Toby assessment should be the same.

     

    Go Giants!!

    So surely that says he will.

    PS Selwood just chose to bump Taylor head high - but I guess the Selwood rule will apply and he will be fine (or at worst fined).

    As I recall Hawkins wasn't even cited - the media didn't go all over it so Christian didn't even have to have a look.

    Can someone work out if Geeling lose tonight what does that mean in terms of how many wins we need to secure top 4?

    Man, BT’s not even attempting to hide his disappointment when the Giants goal.

    Maggots doing their best - Guthrie clearly rode him in the back - "free kick Geelong".

    Don't even think of it - win the bloody lot.

    For a much lauded defence, Geelong have conceded a lot of goals out the back tonight.

    The same amount as before the game started. It affects the chances of making top 2.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
