Not the best of looks but I’d be [censored] if he gets time. 
A rough conduct fine?

    He’ll get a week or two and rightly so. He launched himself like an Exocet missile and is extremely lucky that he didn’t do some major damage to Smith. Intent should be punished and the intent there was pretty clear.

    (I won’t be complaining however, if he gets off with a fine)

    Cripps got off and won the Charlie last year. 
     

    Oh how the MRO interpretations turn so quickly.

    Is he potentially in double trouble?

    Errant but well timed. 😎

    Hoping for a fine.

    Incident occurred when we needed a lift so I’ve go no issue with his intention.

    Thought he was immense tonight.

    Didn't see Franklin's but I can see Pickett getting anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks especially with the current climate of concussion legal actions against the AFL. If he gets off it would be a miracle. Smith playing on helps the cause but the AFL won't like seeing hits like that replayed through the week and will want to send a message that we are serious on potential head injuries.

    I think that was just captured at the right (wrong?) moment - seems it was just part of the push and shove but the pic makes it look like he flushed him on the jaw.

    Yep

    Watched the reply, was just grappling,  no punch thrown, not even a little jumpery one

    Similar to Rioli on Rowell last year and he got off 

    Not really. Rioli argued he was contesting the ball. Pickett can’t argue that. 

    In the matrix it should be careless, low, high contact, which is a fine, but the Guidelines allow the MRO to lift the impact rating up where there is potential for harm and I expect that to occur here to raise it to medium, meaning a 1 week suspension.

    But in the current climate I won’t be surprised if he gets high impact and/or intentional, to jack the suspension up further.

    He’s a Melbourne player. Will get 25 to life. Buddy will get a bravery medal.

    3 down to 2 with early plea, throw in another 1 for the hook shot on McCrae.

    3 total, which he should accept imo. Reckless, but he was trying to change the momentum of the game, go hard or go home.

    If he gets more than a week after what Cripps copped last year I'd be disgusted. Franklin threw an elbow. What will he cop. Cripps' opponent got wiped out, Smith got up like nothing happened. Smith has my respect. Tough guy not just a pretty face. Pickett deserves a week. Cripps should a got 3+. At least he got to enjoy the 2 worst feelings at the end of games i reckon he's ever felt playing Footy.

    And the photo of the Cripps incident was so very like Kozzies bump. Feet well off the ground.  PLUS the other player was concussed. Interesting this one..

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
