    I think he is considered one of the best though isn't he?

    I really really really hate the AFL. This competition is becoming impossible to enjoy. It’s a good thing Melbourne is competitive right now or I would seriously consider walking away. It’s becoming increasingly more difficult to enjoy. 

    You and me both.

    if I didn’t love the MFC I mean Narm FC I could just about walk away from footy.

    • Grapeviney changed the title to Lachie Hunter Loses Bid To Overturn 1 Week Suspension

    Realistically though, what is stopping our boys from diving headfirst at the ball, taking a knee to the head, getting the free and getting a player out for the week. 

    Looking at our boys Vines could take 20 knees before a concussion, Sparrow around 10 I reckon just don't let Gus get involved.

    With injuries starting to mount, may I request that the boys have a week off from MRP activity into the Carlton game.

    Our players get suspended for contesting the footy tho, so I’m not sure what the alternative is. 
    I mean they could put on a Pies jumper and change their name to Daicos then they can punch opponents freely.

    We’d be pinned for taking the legs

    Given its only a week, I think we'll cop it on the chin. It's BS, but that's AFL

    The flipside is that if we believe we can successfully appeal then it will send the Tribunal a clear message to uphold future suspensions at its peril.

    This isnt about footy....not about rules..

    Agree, also as Melbourne FC our supporter base should have better lawyers than our competitors providing a comparative advantage.

    No it’s not yours 

    You don’t even get a say in what your team is called these days 

    You don’t get consulted before your club board makes public statements about issues that are unrelated to football

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
