I think that's the way it will end up but I think it sets a precedent that if they want they can. I also think they are going at us so hard because they absolutely dropped the ball with the Fogarty incident.

But how could they make that big of error unless something was bought to their attention after it was too late.

Perhaps it is why McRae was silent on the matter this arvo on Andy and Hazey SEN.

    ahh the pendulum of indecision

    Yes, Academic Incest. Life is not a pendulum: it's a matter of consciousness and using your the senses and intuition and experience to help you navigate though life. It's like the term 'Cognitive Dissonance' which is an academic term which refers to people who will never change their minds, no matter what evidence is presented...

    That's why I think its such an important case, if we lose then it doesn't matter if you take mark of the year if you concuss the "injure" to any extent as you've said the guy in front of you, your done. 

    Do you actually think that will happen though? The AFL will just forget about this like they do every other contentious decision when it suits.

    If this were September does anyone really think it gets to this point? The AFL is the Absolute Farce League.

    I've been thinking of how we can voice our frustration should this last appeal be upheld too. 

    My suggestion: A minute before bouncedown at the next game (there are timers on the scoreboard, aren't there?), ... all Demon ... or for that matter, any football supporter with a brain ... wave their scarf (or any "fabric" ... thank you Goody!!!) in circles, while shouting: "Rrroooooooooooooooo!!!

    Straightfoward, relevant, and simple enough for the AFL to get the message.

    It would not be appropriate for the following Sir Doug Nicholls Round, as much as I would like to see a protest for the duration of Rooyen's penalty.

    Traction anyone? Or other suggestions? Its all just in case!!

    The Walls of Jericho will come tumbling down...that'll show 'em!

    This Tweet

    Just saw on the news that Brad Green has been sanctioned by the AFL for his twitter comment into this ban! 😂

    The club has been asked to explain his criticism of the Tribunal on Twitter

     

    he can just say he was observing his duty of care towards jacon von rooyen

    If this was a Geelong player does anyone really think this would even be cited?

    But on this precedent you don’t need to actually injure the player. The act itself, if it doesn’t show a duty of care, is sufficient to be reported.

    I don't think it will be every time, but I think it gives the AFL the opportunity to pick and choose when they want to enforce this.

    Yea that's why I said "injure." I responded to someone that explained the "injury" part well IMO

    Well it's not actually in the rules, so precedent or not, any player could be rubbed out at any time, for anything

    • 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.

    • 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?

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
