Lachie Hunter fined by the AFL for...

white line fever 👌

Wtaf, he's getting fined for that, seriously?

 

I remember this at the time. I laughed because he was on the boundary line calling for the ball. The radio commentary also had a laugh 

That is friggin hilarious 🤣

Ha ha I noticed that on the replay put pressure on the hawk player when he wasn’t actually on the ground I thought he was a bit cheeky but quick thinking.!!!

Cheeky, reckon it only got a fine after it went a bit viral.

Either way it shouldn't be the same fine as dacking a bloke

 

Seventeen other clubs have broken out into cold sweats, now that they have seen what happens when you challenge the AFL and win ...

I counted two dackings on the weekend and I’m sure neither attracted a fine. 

What a legend. 🤣

He's risen another nitch in my appreciation of him!


Very glad he didn't miscalculate and place a foot over the line.

For what it's worth, I think the fine is appropriate. If no action had been taken, players would believe they could do this with impunity. That could lead to dangerous outcomes. 

If he was already warming up around the boundary line, I reckon a heckle is ok.

But running at the player like this doesn't sit right to me, as it makes it "feel" like there is an extra defender. I don't think it's appropriate.

But as said above, exposing another player on the field should be a more significant penalty than this!


Yeah I suppose the sanction is warranted, I love that he's invested though.

It’s not a good look!! 

Agree. If left unchecked, it wouldn't be long before most bench players started lining up to scream abuse. Admire his passion though.

 

I’m not outraged.

A player could get duped and pass the ball, out on the full. Then the face palming that ensued could easily cause concussion, and we all know the head is sacrosanct.

  • 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.
