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

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
