Guarantee you if it was a Demon player he would have been suspended

That AFL is corrupt

    Oh great, just great.

    If anyone deserves to be suspended, it's that low-life snipper. Who the hell needs evidence when it comes to Josh Carr? Of course he hit someone, it's second nature to him! :rolleyes:

    I guess with half our midfield out injured, and the other half filling holes up forward and down back, he can line up on Godfrey and Godfrey can hopefully whack him one back! :P

    Hang on a minute.

    The tribunal found that"... Mr. Chick's evidence was unconvincing..."

    They must be doing something right.

    That's legalise for someone's lying and we know who.

    That does it. Bring in Byron. Buy him a big maccas breakfast. Give him orders that for the day he's not to look at the pill, just make a beeline for anything named Carr. We'll still lose, Byron won't play for 8 weeks, but by gee there'll be some fireworks.

    I reckon Yze should haVe copped one from him for this absolute hospital kick he got in the third.

    Ummm... never?

    But I'm not going to cry if he gets suspend, that's all. :lol:

    I could never see this getting up. No video evidence, no report by the umpire. Reported on Chick's say so....

    I imagine the proceedings went something like this....

    Chick: He punched me in the Ribs!

    Carr: Did Not!

    Chick: Did Too!

    Carr: Did Not!

    Chick: Did Too!

    Carr: Did Not!

    Chick: Did Too!

    Carr: Did Not!

    Chick: Did Too!

    Carr: Drugo!

    Selwood cleared

    Headland cleared due to 'exceptional' circumstances, or something.

    Headland will play this weekend and probably will cop it.

    Selwood was always going to be cleared, it really was their only option given the "he said-he said" state of the argument, with no corroborating evidence.

    But Headland still hit him, on numerous occasions, so why is he clear to play?

    They have just condoned his violent reaction and said that if someone says something mean to you, you can beat the crap out of them.

    headland wont get off thats for sure

    Worse still, if someone gives you a bit of lip, and you mishear them, then it's ok to smack them repeatedly.

    Even worse than that, the next time a player is sledged, he can go ahead and take a baseball-bat to the guys head and when the tribunal comes to them and asks "why?" he can say "I thought he said my Mum was ugly... but that's ok. Misunderstanding. I'll just hand him back his jaw and we'll forget the whole thing..."

    The AFL is run by a bunch of scared little men.

    Instead of tackling this issue head on, they swept it under the rug by clearing both parties and wiping their hands clean without a guilty conscience.

    They've done the same with drugs, player depression, they've even managed to stuff up 150 year old rules. :rolleyes:

    If they can't get a simple 'hands in the back' rule correct, what hope have they got of dealing with bigger, more concerning issues?

    But here's the stupidest part, by trying to get rid of this issue, they've opened up an even bigger can of worms. How long before a player pleads not guilty on the count of his victim's offensive sledging?

    What an absolute joke!

    Seems Headland was exceptionally provoked by words that didn't exist, if I am to correctly read the outcome of both cases. :wacko:

    Well said Jaded.....

    Upset Eagle cleared

    by: Paul Gough

    ........But despite not accepting Headland's version of events, the jury still did not impose the six-match suspension on Headland that

    he was facing for the resultant two striking charges against Selwood.

    Instead he is clear to play this week, despite being found guilty of one striking charge and for wrestling Selwood after the

    jury ruled there were 'exceptional and compelling circumstances' behind his actions.........

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
