    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    • CASEY: Sydney

      The Casey Demons were always expected to emerge victorious in their matchup against the lowly-ranked Sydney Swans at picturesque Tramway Oval, situated in the shadows of the SCG in Moore Park. They dominated the proceedings in the opening two and a half quarters of the game but had little to show for it. This was primarily due to their own sloppy errors in a low-standard game that produced a number of crowded mauls reminiscent of the rugby game popular in old Sydney Town. However, when the Swans tired, as teams often do when they turn games into ugly defensive contests, Casey lifted the standard of its own play and … it was off to the races. Not to nearby Randwick but to a different race with an objective of piling on goal after goal on the way to a mammoth victory. At the 25-minute mark of the third quarter, the Demons held a slender 14-point lead over the Swans, who are ahead on the ladder of only the previous week's opposition, the ailing Bullants. Forty minutes later, they had more than fully compensated for the sloppiness of their earlier play with a decisive 94-point victory, that culminated in a rousing finish which yielded thirteen unanswered goals. Kicks hit their targets, the ball found itself going through the middle and every player made a contribution.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
      This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
