We should not have seen that footage between him and his doctor, nor of him leaning against the locker. A bridge too far for mine. That is a very private moment of a human being in despair and is no place for voyeurs. 

All bow down to the Great God Television. We cross now to the vulgar spectacle of self absorbed ninnies in manufactured drama who will slit each other's throats in return for 15 minutes of fame, all for your edification and enjoyment. Right after these gambling ads.

 

 

 

Agree, it's a bridge too far.

    Parish 30 possessions to HT. Pretty good in anyone's book.

    Possessions is a [censored] of a stat it what you do with them that counts.

    Of course but it's not often you see those numbers to Half Time either.

    Mihocek is a valuable player for the Pies. Always seems to be in the right spot and is a reliable kick.

    29 years of age so you would think he only has another 2-3 years at best. Collingwood's forward stocks aren't that great

    If there was text book case for dissent based on AFLs explanation, it was right there from DeGoey. 
     

    Don’t agree with the rule but the inconsistency is what drives people irate.

    Gutted for poor Paddy McCartin - he was really showing his ability down back with the Swannies. Game over for his footy career methinks. And this solidifies my view about cameras in the change rooms. We should not have seen that footage between him and his doctor, nor of him leaning against the locker. A bridge too far for mine. That is a very private moment of a human being in despair and is no place for voyeurs. 

    Completely agree. I can not understand why the AFLPA allows any footage from the rooms during the game. Seeing a doctor having a private conversation with a patient is no place for ‘entertainment’. It’s atrocious.

    He needs to pull his head in I reckon and pump up his team mates not his own tyres.

    He annoys the carp out of me and reminds me of his d**k head father but he is a very good kick for goal.

    Fair call, I find it refreshing when someone has a bit of swagger but theatrics can bite as well.

    I don’t care how many disposals he gets, Parish wouldn’t get a game for us. Not only loves running into the contest to get his counting stats but as soon as he’s out in space actively looks for a guy to handball it too instead of looking what’s in front of him. The worst part is as soon as he knows the opposition has it won’t even bother putting any effort on defence.

    Funny thing is he would’ve fit right in with the 2019 version of us though.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
