Tackle isn’t dead: AFL sends fresh memo as Butler hopes grow

The AFL has sent a memo to all clubs outlining ‘safe tackling techniques’ as the dangerous tackle debate raged again on Thursday night. Will Saint Dan Butler be banned?

Think it said all players should carry a pillow and place said pillow on ground before tackling player.

Spare a thought for Ryan Maric, who was picked up by West Coast in the Mid-Season Draft.

No fan of Adelaide but I hope that every arrogant Eagles supporter that I ever encountered in my trips out west are miserable watching their team these days.

I think it's better for PA to win rather than Dogs.

Realistically Port are certain to finish top 4, so it's better that other teams vying for fourth sport lose.

Port are overrated. Besides rd 1 when they jumped the Lions still haven’t put anyone away. 
 


Rd 1 smashed lions, lions clearly off their game
Rd 2 they got smashed by the pies
Rd 3 5 goal loss to the crows
Rd 4 2 points over the swans
Rd 5 14 over dogs, some bad umpiring in that game, sounds funny saying that against the dogs
Rd 6 pump eagles big deal
Rd 7 beat saints by 7
Rd 8 beat bombers by 5 
Rd 9 pump north big deal
Rd 10 beat Dees by 4, Dees were totally outplayed. No denying it, play 1 good qtr and nearly beat them.
Rd 11 beat tigers by 10 after Dimma stood down
Rd 12 pump hawks big deal

Carn the Dogs.

Ok so Butler concussed Blakey who not only missed a critical part of last night but misses a game next week as well. 1.5 games in total. Medium impact.

Hunter makes contact with Rozee, who gets up like a Jack rabbit, kicks the winning goal and then goes on to have 27 touches the following week against Richmond. Medium impact.

Exhibit A - victim is concussed. Misses remainder of game and a season “in balance” game next week against Brisbane. Medium impact.

Exhibit B - Victim is the second most influential player on the ground after the incident and then goes on to have another near BOG performance the following week. Medium impact.

How’s that for consistency from the MRP.

Mr Floppy.

I hate the way the commentators don't call out the fact that the decision was disgraceful.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
