This is a tweet from 'Age' journalist Peter Ryan today.  Anyone heard anything else about this?

NB:  I'm aware of the massive oxymoron that is "AFL integrity department".

 

The AFL integrity department have decided to take a further look at the May-Melksham incident to ensure there are no surprises beyond what has been established.@agerealfooty

Didn't take long for the Demons of old to be back  in the news for the wrong reasons, when you include the text messages BS of ex & current presidents! 

The Momentum video of breaking the drought when Gawn is talking about how they changed they way the players spoke to each other professionally and making a commitment to each other,which helped change the culture is a slap in the face from May!

Going on past history most supporters will be fearing how the season will unfold.

Not sure why Goody hasn't addressed this with the media and is waiting until Friday presser, so its dragged on for the whole week.

Very happy for Goody to be doing the job as outlined in his position description actually.

Understandable. The AFL needs to satisfy itself that there's nothing more than has been already stated. 


Drinking heavily whilst concussed, slagging off an injured team mate and brawling in public. This is not a trivial matter contrary to what some on here are saying. 

Derwayne's justification was the Shai Bolton 2020 incident. 

 

And on it goes. Hope May and Melksham are really really proud of their actions. 

Just seen the latest HS headlines. One could be mistaken for thinking there is a concerted effort to attack the club. 3 banner headlines all about Goody, AFL investigation and May having a dust up with Richetelli at Gold Coast. Thank god in cancelled my subscription years ago and wouldn't lower myself to pick up the paper and read. But they still damage the club with sensations headlines that are old news. 

Its time MFC, supporters and everyone else boycott this excuse for a newspaper.

Devil's advocate for a second but there has to be a reason that more than one person is calling for AFL intervention other than purely having an agenda and being out to 'get us', supporting a team that is counter to us etc.

They are both Dogooders, no need at all for an investigation.

This is ****house, all very disappointing.

You can’t even scratch your backside these days without someone filming you, I’m really surprised no footage has emerged to date.

Well, I don’t know what you’re talking about?

Everything is fine in the land of No Apologies! No one is upset or sorry for anything! 

What a magical place this is… there are fights everywhere, everyone is calling each other terrible epithets and calling into question their value both verbally and digitally. But no one should be upset according to my warped reality so no one IS upset… (birds fluttering, organ playing 🎵)

In some ways ignorance is bliss RP!  Might be better for all our sakes at this point!


This is what happens when you drip feed info out with the facade of being holistic and thorough.

You can’t fake it, the veneer wears off eventually.

It was a scuffle. Whatever that is.

It was banter. It was obviously more than that.

It was May ‘having a drink’ under protocols. It was May at the boxing probably drinking all arvo…

It was all sorted. The restaurant didn’t think so.

What actually happened? I will tell you something different every effing day.

So the AFL's investigation unit deems it appropriate to investigate an intra club stoush but De Goey (with priors) being charged by the NYPD for allegedly groping a female in a nightclub is ignored!!??

Who would've thought... Gil & the AFL having double standards with outcomes dependent on the Club/s in question

Of course it’s the way that this is all phrased which is what matters. I imagine just about every incident that results in a player being suspended is actually investigated by the AFL Integrity unit, but saying “Breaking: AFL launching their own investigation” sounds so much more dramatic and can of course fill more pages of the newspaper. What really grinds me is that this week and match should be focused on MND and the Big Freeze, but the actions of May and Melksham have ruined it and placed the club in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. 

Even though I back Melky for sticking up for his teammates, it did make me wonder about him getting out of this with no sanction. 


This should be over. That it is not is a consequence of media madness and Gill wanting to be seen to do something.

Time for the middle finger to the AFL and the media

12 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

it was inevitable

the benefit of this from an mfc side is that once completed etc. it will close it out

What can the AFL do here, is it just a fine or a ban likely? Would hate to lose him for the Brisbane game

Did this happen for the Jordan DEGOEY incident in the USA?? 

Don’t think the AFL can investigate a police matter. Let alone one that occurs overseas and ends up in court. 
 

I think the club handled this poorly. They tried to sugarcoat the truth and instead each day the real truth came out in tiny morsels, making the entire thing sound so much worse. AFL probably wants to know what else we are hiding.

That’s the thing though, I feel like we’ve acted very appropriately towards May so I can only imagine that the lack of sanction towards Melksham is the only part that could genuinely be questioned. Beyond that I can’t see what it else we could’ve done.

No swearing please. You could get “cancelled” for that.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
