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: 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.
