How does it come to pass that you guys read it more clearly than the lawyers tasked with representing? (not a crack, just confused?)

Maybe 'Landers are far better lawyers.

    Yeah I’m confused too.. are people watching this somewhere or making judgements purely on tweets? 
     

    If it’s the latter I think it’s fair to say we have no idea what’s been said

    It’s not looking good. I imagine they’re trying to come up with a statement that won’t send the AFL community into meltdown. Again.

    They have to 'appear' to be giving it serious consideration, whether that is the case or not

    So Red, why can’t it be as simple as showing the Fogarty spoil and then Jacob’s and asking wtf is different?

    Because this is an Appeal and we need to show legal errors, not other incidents missed.

    the standard of the reporting blog certainly isn't what it used to be.

    I suspect one needed to be there to understand the arguments in full.

    In this day and age of voice generated text not to mention zoom no reason it's not more fully reported

    Well, according to the AFL 2023 Tribunal Guidelines, unless something has been cited by the MRO (with or without penalty) it cannot be presented as evidence in a tribunal hearing. I'm not sure if the appeals process is bound by the same guidelines, but it could be.

    Purely a guess on my behalf though.

    So the example could/should have been presented in the first appeal?

    I know you said you haven’t read the proceedings, but once you do I would be interested in your opinion of our defense. I’m not a lawyer but I wasn’t impressed. AFL seem to have made a stronger argument.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
