In these situations I usually bet on the player getting off, and I still reckon he'll get off. He has too many votes this season to allow an asterisk on Brownlow night.

 

Oh, and purely on the less cynical merits of the offence itself, I reckon there's wiggle room for his people to win the case.

 

What a farce

hopefully the appeals run out by Saturday!

This has to be the longest appeal process ever. 

Probably consulting the Privy council or the House of Lords

 

i wonder how long this objection took to cover "In a different era that would not have resulted in a report."   lol


Clubs should cop an extra week for wasting everyone’s time if not successful.

There should be a disincentive and risk to appeal a tribunal call if it’s just a matter of trying to get your best player to play on the Saturday.

That's longer than it takes to read one of my longer-type posts!

 

Forget tl_dr, more like tl_dl

Siri - give me the definition of an elbow to the head when the player has his back turned

Siri - cheap shot, knocked the bloke out

case closed


If he gets off it's going to set a very big precedent

The ball would only have to be in the vicinity and then it could be carte blanche

With CarlScum demanding compo for Jones I guess they are seeking compo and damages from the MRO and tribunal for besmirching Cripps’ reputation.

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
