If there is no injury or concussion, then how is it even a reportable offence?

Fox footy said that he has no issues just a bit sore in the neck area, surely its just free kick for high contact then.

What an absolute joke. Surely they’re taking the [censored].

So what happens when you have eyes only for the ball but smack someone in the head?

If they allowed that then you could smack someone but make sure you look at the ball when you do it

 

Get [censored]. Where is Chols suspension?

I know we have a track record of not challenging arguable cases. But we simply have to challenge this. Preposterous decision.

Did Chol get anything for deliberately round arming Bowey by the way? Can't see anything about it on the afl site.

[censored], hope this dosen't end up with roo hesitant to hit packs full throttle

I’m confident this does not happen, he loves it

Get [censored] MRO.

Last year you let Cripps walk free to win a Brownlow.

JVR is innocent, MRO are clowns. By the way this was purely driven by the media!!!

  • Grapeviney changed the title to JVR gets two weeks

Had Ballard not been accidentally hit in the head earlier in the game by Pickett’s knee (and allowed to continue by the Suns), I’d be willing to bet he wouldn’t have been injured by JVR trying to spoil. Just saying…

Straight to the Supreme court.

Must challenge 

 

If we don’t challenge this we are simply p-weak.

No injury yet high impact.

The club has to appeal this decision. Absolute [censored] joke of a decision. The whole “took his eyes off the ball” narrative is being misinterpreted as a bad thing.. JVR clearly took a duty of care to ensure he knew where the opponent was so as to avoid punching him in the head.. The momentum of Ballard coming forward carried him into JVR’s bicep. A total football accident.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
