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.

Wednesday Adams has just taken the stand for the Dees talking about Vicarious Intent and pure Accident. Seems her logic is impeccable!!

Who is Adams?

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.

Na, their just waiting for uber eats 

The difference is I'm not pretending to know at all how this works or what it means.

Just saw that McDonald is the sole tall being named as emergency 🤮🤮

Please for the love of God now another reason for JVR not to be suspended.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
