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..

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
