NARRM recruit Lachie Hunter has been suspended for one match for his high bump on Connor Rozee.

The MRO cited Hunter for forceful front-on contact, deeming the incident as careless conduct, medium impact and high contact.

What total Bullfrap!!!!!!!!!!!

Just as the news came through, I was going to post that Christian will obviously suspend Van R for retaliating at the 16 minute mark of the last quarter.

Influencing the result is more important than correct decisions. Once again.

From what I saw on the television is that Rozee, head down, ran into Hunter who turned side on the protect not only himself, but Rozee.

No he doesnt was our second best last night. Get ur glasses on the one that needs a rest is Langdon bog ordinary!!

I must be in the minority on this one but I think it is a clear 1 match suspension. 

Lachie had plenty of time to bend down and try to win that footy with his hands and head down...he didn't and elected to lead with his hip. Yes, Rozee ran into him but Hunter elected not to contest the footy whilst Rozee chased it the right way 

Take the week and move on, I'm pretty far from in love with what Hunter is bringing anyway. Valuable width and positional stuff but he continually asks too much of his teammates by handballing to their feet or kicking scrubbers not to their advantage. Further, he has a gawn-esque hook from a set shot and very hit and miss distance wise.

I don't agree with you and neither will the club. Anyone who has been paying attention to these things over the last 2 years would see it as a clear suspension. If he didn't play for the Dees you would too.

As for his performance - I'm aware he was our 2nd highest ranked player statistically but my eyes tell me he is poor for our overall cohesion and cleanliness. Not dissimilar to the decision the club made on Frost - in his own right an OK key defender, but just detracted from our overall system. Hunter is nowhere near as headless and I said he is strong positionally, but his disposal is very rarely to our advantage 

I don't disagree on the sea of mediocrity though 

If we accept Hunters 1 week suspension I’ll be checking out from the 2023 H&A season.

I’ve never been so disheartened by the direction of the game and its management.  
 

It’s just too infuriating. 

This isnt about "a player" anymore.

This is about pushing back.

Collingwood wouldn't stand fot it... and i begrudgingly admire them gor not taking [censored] from fools .

Nor should we.

Christian is an egomaniac.

The club statement on the suspension has left the door open for us to challenge. I suspect the club will look at Hunter's action, whether he elected to bump, and weigh up an appeal based on their odds of a successful challenge.

My take is it's pretty line ball whether Hunter bumped, braced or turned sideways to protect himself and gather the ball in the same motion. Players are allowed to brace or protect themselves when gathering the ball but if they elect to bump then they are in trouble.


I think we could definitely challenge and win. Whether we will or not I’m not sure.

Pretty clearly elected to bump in my view..had plenty of time to put his head down and contest. Chose not to, lead with the hip and the player contesting the ball in the right way was collected high as a result. Protecting the player with his head over the footy is literally why these rules exist. Umpire immediately reported so must have thought similiar 

Pretty cut and dry imo, the outrage & bleating is not justified and only shows that most here do not take notice when players on other teams cop their whack for this

Fur christ sake he held his ground no more no less! Charge Rozee cheeks for a tunnel attack on the ball for which.. If Hunter wasn't braced would have resulted in a total knee reconstruction and potentially END OF CAREER. TIME TO CALL OUT CHRISTIAN and whole match review process

 Christ Im LIVID with this one😠

Turning side on and keeping your head up is what the AFL ask in winning ground balls.

As is slowing up and not rushing head first in to a dangerous situation. Rozee did everything wrong and had Hunter stayed fully up right he could’ve done the fake trip and taken the slide rule free.

The only question is did Hunter brace for contact or was his late moment dipping the hips some form of bump. 

If Hunter not making the distance from 35 hasn’t convinced people then surely his effort on the back flank when he tried to turn his man out the back rather than open his body, just and wear a spoil should’ve.

This is a player without any power in the legs or strength in the contest.

Just put this picture up.

Hits him at best with his bum in the chest and Rozee actually grabs Hunter as contact takes place.

How is that high contact?

Many far worse especially in the first half, he was involved a lot of others were hardly sighted.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
