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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
