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.

    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.

    true but on the other hand we don’t want Port to finish top 2

    I would think we want top 2.

    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.

    Dan Butler has been offered one week by the MRP.

    Have they got it badly wrong or is this proof that the Butler did in fact do it?

    Garbage decision, between the umpiring, the tribunal and the push for 19/20 teams the AFL is alienating fans at a rapid pace.

    The AFL is a garbage pile of steaming [censored]. 
    Only Melbourne is keeping me from just throwing away all interest in the game.

    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.

    Neither deserved of a suspension regardless of outcome

    Can anyone drive Weightman to the hospital?

    Mr Floppy.

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

    Weightman is a very good player but it’s hard to like him with his flopping.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
