Even more damning if Ah Chee misses a game through concussion protocols

At least 2 weeks, possibly 3 for Cripps

    Cripps decided to bump

    Jumped to leave ground 

    Direct contact with head

    Loss of consciousness

    Player subbed straight off

    = mandatory suspension if rules are followed!

    we will see …

    Did you all know Lincoln McCarthy couldn’t get on the park at Geelong, but virtually hasn’t missed a game with Brisbane?

    I know. I’ve never heard that EVERY [censored] WEEK ON CHANNEL 7.

    Fisher is a momentum killer.

    Misses important goals, and it goes coast to coast.

    Those commentators! 

    Cripps left the ground, bumbs from behind/side, hits the head, didn’t get near the ball, Che subbed out.

    Mathews says going for the ball all should be fine, the rest follow.

    Where is the 'duty of care.'

    At least 2 weeks.

     

    Haven’t seen it yet, but triple m commentators said “big trouble, definite weeks”

    Brisbane are even worse than we are for butchering goal scoring opportunities.

    Rioli got off for a similar incident in Round 1 but Rowell got up straight away and played the game out. And even decision that was controversial. I think Cripps will get 2 weeks.

    How could anyone be defending that… left the ground, chose to bump, hit him high, and the Brisbane player is subbed out with concussion, that’s a minimum of two weeks every day of the week.

    Gees Josh Kennedy has been a fantastic player. He just seems like a quality guy. Doesn’t think he’s saving the world, just wants to play footy.

    He should be so proud of his career.

    According to Leigh Mathews - “I suspect that’s incidental contact” LMAO 🤣

    Sad way to end his career. 😢

    Jonno Brown reckons its a football incident. If these old schoolers were in charge at the MRO no player would ever get suspended

    Oh I was talking about JK at The Eagles, but everything I said applies to JK at the Swannies.

    I think he was hoping to go on somewhere else next year, but this new injury might be the end of him sadly.

    Nah. They’d jump on a no name player to show how virtuous they were.

    Lethal obviously got no supercoach trades or bench left, and doesn’t want to field a donut if Cripps rubbed out.

    Shocking call. If he reached for the ball, I'd agree. Lined him up and took him out

    When Ugle Hagen missed that sitter in front I thought typical. Against us he kicked that goal from the boundary outside 50 that he pulled from his backside and couldn't miss anything that night.

    I knew he wouldn't do anything good after our game

    Same here.  He is 12.12 from 13 games aside from our game where he kicked 5.0

    wtf

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
