If this was a bigger name player would the result be the same?

Wow I thought maybe 1 week but 2 come on.

He didn't even concuss him

AFL 360 are going nuts about it. Gerard and even Robbo cannot believe it

Not watching but can hear Robbo struggling to string together a coherent sentence and for once fully understanding what's going on in his head.

    Wait a minute- was this was just the regular tribunal hearing because we didn't accept the 2 week offer? So is there still scope for an appeal of this decision? Get Cripps's QC on the case.

    Yeah, we can appeal again

    Think there is an Appeals Board.

    Club needs to come out right now and say “This is a [censored] farce and we are [censored] appealing this”

    Wow that’s [censored]….

    ANY attempt to spoil where you collect someone high must be deemed two weeks from now on by the AFL logic

    He'll win on appeal.  To uphold this verdict means that any "reasonable" player defending by punching the ball from behind and hitting Max Gawn or any player playing in front in the head, ear, jaw etc will be suspended.  There will be nobody left playing.  Gleeson's premise is absurd.

    Anyone got the AFL Law book handy? What are our options? Injunction at law? Serious.

    As bad as it is for us as a team if we don't appeal again, and hopefully get JvR off then the AFL has just set a ridiculous new precedent that will alter the way the game is played, scary stuff.

    I hope we go to the appeals board. What [censored] clowns sit on that board? More lawyers who have never played football in their life?

    I cannot understand why MFC had Adrian Anderson appear.

    While i believe he is a lawyer and was big in the AFL, surely a bigwig barrister might have been worth it

    Honestly thought this would be a formality because the AFL could not possibly soften the brand in this manner.

    I’m stunned

    what is going on with the MRO. Seriously. Non sensical decision.

    Imagine how many players that hit Gawny every week will get rubbed out!

    My guess is none

    Must appeal

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
