Parker upheld for a lesser tackle. Cerra is no chance of getting off..

You don’t understand how the tribunal works if you think their rulings are based on consistency 🙄😂

I’m a “reader” and not a “poster” as evidenced by my 144 posts in 13 years. I’ve also never taken a fellow Demonlander to task before. Yet, your post kept me awake last night. I only post this now bec

I am 71, have loved the game and especially the MFC, since I was about 5 and I am now at the stage, where I only want to go to games, to be with my kids and grandkids. I detest what I see happeni

The AFL will look to apply ad-hoc equalisation methods beginning tonight by clearing Cerra for his dump tackle. 

I’m probs going straight to hell for saying this but since Cerra playing or not playing this week won’t affect whether we win or lose, a part of me hopes he gets off purely to see the mega melts on here.

I mean, a Tribunal Tuesday meltdown is very on brand for Demonland this season

Appeal Successful. Cerra is free to play.

The tribunal's reasoning:

"We're terribly sorry. The MRO clearly thought Mr Cerra still played for Fremantle. If he'd realised he played for Carlton, he never would have been charged.

We're just glad this terrible wrong has been righted."

Wasn’t Sparrows tackle identical? I mean no arms pinned as well? This a utter BS but we all knew it would happen. 

Right hand vs Left hand, hair doesn’t doesn’t touch the ground etc. 

It the AFL doesn’t appeal, they are complicit.

Insane that Cerra got off and the 17 others didn’t. Some with less dangerous tackles too.

This season in general has been ****house. Not only has the tribunal and umpiring been poor, but the quality of football and general excitement from watching games has been rock bottom. Can’t remember a less interesting season. Great job AFL.

I can see it now.

Tribunal sums up after allowing the appeal, that no reasonable person or footballer, could have foreseen, that a smaller player, dragging a bigger player to the ground, would cause the bigger player to hit his head on the ground twice and that after all, he really didn't mean to do it and he is sorry.

Told you.

I couldn’t care less about our game this week. Friday night against Carlton should be exciting, but this is the least excited I’ve felt for an upcoming match since 2019  when we were bottom four.

Well probably win against an injured depleted Carlton, but who cares. If we win, big whoop. If we lose, we’re rubbish.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
