I luuurve the way Lachy Hunter has fitted in to our team, and he seems genuinely liked by teammates> All you need is some brevity and understanding , which was obviously lacking at Dishlickerland!!

 

I'd happily pay the fine. From Lachie's PoV, one for the grand kids in 2057. You can't invent this type of $%^&! The man is a total legend.

I saw this at the time and said to the bloke next to me it was NQR, and asking for trouble.

 

I said in the Sparrow thread the AFL will try and [censored] the MFC and this is a classic example.

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!

To add to this: I absolutely love the ****housery. I just think it needs to be against the rules.


Don’t have a problem with the fine. If a player did that in a close prelim and it caused a turnover all hell would break loose.

Kinda impressed with how quickly he thought to do it though. Hated him and his smart aleck tendencies at the Dogs, don’t mind it all anymore.

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

Both did.

Well definitely Murphy was fined.

I have no problem with the fine.

It could lead to an incident and is not helpful.

I want vision of his teammates on the bench when he did this. 

Well at least we got consistency finally.

The MRO has found another new way to penalise a MFC player and the MFC and given several past incidents, that is the only level of consistency the MRO has ever achieved.

On the other hand it’s not behaviour the AFL should encourage.

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. 

Inappropriate causations have been occurring for years. Did Mathews receive a fine and a bill for wrecking a point post? Did Jones get fined for damaging a goal post? Did players get fined for misbehaving in the race or the dug outs?

Resting case.....

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

Very smart gamesmanship.

Can AFL please quote the rule that he has breached?

I guess we should be so grateful to Michael Christian for not suspending him for a month on another trumped up charge that is not in the rule book.

I get it. I mean, it’s a little funny and good on him, but have to draw the line somewhere. $1500 seems excessive though. Must inclusive of the additional MFC player tax.

and in the latest news from afl house ... the afl has announced that fartometers will be installed in all player interchange benches. any player caught farting will be fined by the mro for unsportsmanlike behaviour.  repeat offenders or particularly smelly farters could be suspended or referred to the afl tribunal.  the afl spokesman said this is further step in the afl's commitment to a safer and more inclusive workplace.

Really? The Cadman one I can understand as it was deliberate. But I saw the Jackson one as incidental to play.

I corrected my earlier post to definitely on Murphy, maybe not on Jackson one.

This is, must be a joke. Hope Goody, Fags, Fly and other coaches on the side lines don't wave there arms or gesture to one of there own players if the ball and oppo player is close and happens to put the oppo player off.. Give me a break.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
