might be unique in this opinion but I’ve got respect for mitch robinson. Has always played hard, lived on the edge and got the best out of himself. Called is bruise free when we were

Mitch has done well at Brisbane but speak to Rohan Bail about him

    We should back Petty 1000% but if he’s happy to not escalate things it would be nice if we could keep the details under wraps. Doesn’t mean we excuse Zorko, but it would show we’re focused on the job and protect Petty from whatever it was that set him off to begin with

    Don’t know that story DS…I’ve obviously missed one there. I like Rohan. He was a real tryer for us

    Zorko's apparently deactivated his instagram already.

     

    2 wrongs don’t make a right, imagine there’s some awful stuff coming his way and we can’t even be 100% sure it’s justified yet. Still a chance it was all a misunderstanding

    Pretty poor by Zorko, started with a failed attempt of physicality 

    Ending up with apparently some very unsavoury comments about a family member

    How in Gods name is this bloke an AFL Captain

    He couldn’t try very hard after Mitch smashed his head in at Casey one day.

    I didn’t like seeing that. It was a horrible look for the game, and really cast a shadow over the last quarter and post game.

    It’s prime time Friday night. This is going to be a story, and I think Zorko is either going to look shady, or the reality of it comes out and he looks worse.

    Im not sure why anyone thinks it’s going away. Am I missing something?

    There’s no way it’s going away, also no way the afl wouldn’t get involved. But if it can be handled quickly and without fuss it might benefit us. It’s absolutely awful that Petty has to deal with this when our players should be absolutely buzzing for the next few days

    And again Petty goes unheralded for a sensational performance and a great last quarter. He is a star and he’s only 22.

    We were raving about him at my place tonight.  My son bought up his age which I had forgotten about.  So young with a wonderful future.

    Feel for Harrison, and hope he is ok. 

    2 potential positives (on the assumption that it doesn’t have an ongoing neg effect for Petty)

    a) team bonding. Strengthen the theme of “team” and how they play for each other 

    b) distract the media away from the main story (fact that we should be flag fav’s, and are back to our 2021 best) Let them continue to pump the cats up, and pressure of expectation is all on them.

    I agree.

    It needs to be dealt with, and Zorko deserves every last bit of (fair) punishment coming his way if this was more than a misunderstanding, but the less spotlight the better IMO.

    Fortunately there's a week off next week so the story will die down well before our first final no matter what.

    100%, every team in the comp would die to have this guy nullifying the 2nd or 3rd banana every week whilst seemingly going unnoticed

    Dorko's always been a sniper, just glad he tried to snipe Tmac last year, sat him on his [censored].

    Any ramifications on his choke hold on Ed?

    The game was at Princes Park.

    Robinson dropped him 100m off the ball while he wasn't looking.

    Paul Wheatley terrorised him for the rest of the game and Robinson wanted to be somewhere else.

    I was in the rooms after the game and Bail was clearly out of sorts.

    He did thank Wheatley for squaring up.

    Disgusting act by Robinson.

    Unfortunately with no football the story might have legs this week...

    ...but the EFC should come to the rescue, nothing like a big club in disarray to hog the headlines.

    Feel for Harry, the last thing he'd want is everyone commenting on this very personal matter.

    Hopefully this all goes away quickly for his sake

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
