Not the best of looks but Iā€™d be [censored] if he gets time.Ā 
A rough conduct fine?

    Heā€™ll get a week or two and rightly so. He launched himself like an Exocet missile and is extremely lucky that he didnā€™t do some major damage to Smith. Intent should be punished and the intent there was pretty clear.

    (I wonā€™t be complaining however, if he gets off with a fine)

    Errant but well timed. šŸ˜Ž

    Hoping for a fine.

    Incident occurred when we needed a lift so Iā€™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.

    Similar to Rioli on Rowell last year and he got offĀ 

    Not really. Rioli argued he was contesting the ball. Pickett canā€™t argue that.Ā 

    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 wonā€™t be surprised if he gets high impact and/or intentional, to jack the suspension up further.Ā

    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.Ā

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

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmyā€™s inclusive bannerā€”"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwoodā€™s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.Ā

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastā€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze ā€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateā€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodā€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
