Probably fair

De Goey therefore gets 3-4... let's see

De Goey will go straight to the tribunal.  He'll get a nominal three before they appeal.  Harmes deserved his week.  Was a little unlucky that Cotterell fumbled but that's how it goes. 

Bump is dead ⚰️


Well the bump is dead so 1 week not unexpected. De Gooey should get minimum 3 weeks. 

 

Just for a laugh Harmes should spend next Monday just following De Goey around, getting in his face and trying to interfere in everything he does.

Then he'll get done for 6 months as an accomplice

Yeah and nah. 
 

It’s really only when the head’s involved.

The bump isn’t dead. Just need to execute it while at the same time trying to internally decipher if and how you’re gonna [censored] mix the opposition at opportune times. 

Yes.. I understand why he copped a week. However, it’s suppose to be a contact sport. “Choose to bump” and “choose to tackle”… I get that it’s a “choice” but without that choice, it’s not a contact sport and it’s most definitely not AFL. The choice is getting taken away. Only a few years ago, I use to watch as much footy as I could, now I barely make it through one of our games. 

It’s stiff because he’s in position to tackle, the Carlton player fumbles, he can’t dive on the footy, that’s a free, shouldn’t lead with head and get crashed in to, that’s dangerous.

He can only really try to block the Carlton player. Obviously he’s gone a little heavy with a bumping action but it’s an attempt to clear the space. There’s a reason there’s no damage don’t because it wasn’t an attempt to cause any.

Nothing short of brilliant.

Recon Maysie should chauffeur Harmsey, just in case reinforcements are needed. 

Christian and Gleeson can [censored] Harmes for a week as long as they leave Jack alone.


The good news is if that’s a week DeGoey is a month!!! 
Bad luck for Harmesy but I think given Oliver’s impending return and JJ and Woey showing a bit in the VFL he was going to have this week off anyway.

Pickett got 2 for his incident with no KO, Bailey Smith got up as quick as breakdancer then DeGoey should get a 4 to 5 week break. Reckon Pickett would of got that if he hit Smith like Degoey got his opponent this week. 

I was just reading the Filth's Big Footy site - 3 weeks for DeGooey  is a popular consensus.

One bloke, however, had this  interesting take -

    "Get Carlton’s lawyer and Hewett will probably get 3 weeks "

You could always run at a player with the ball and yell “boo”.

Look on the bright side, by dramatically reducing the number and severity of head knocks and concussions in the game, we greatly increase the prospects for future quality of football commentators.

I wish I was kidding.

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
