I do not understand why The AFL does not take eye gouging seriously. It is a disgrace, going right back to Chris Judd. 
It is highly dangerous

    And they didn't even need to call in their lawyers.

    The MFC curse never leaves you

    Giants small forward Toby Bedford was not so lucky, with Christian offering him a one-match ban for his bump on the Blues’ Zac Fisher. It is Bedford’s second rough conduct offence, after he was suspended for one match late last year when he was still playing for Melbourne, for a dangerous tackle on Swan Ollie Florent.

    Christian assessed Bedford’s action as careless conduct, medium impact and high contact.

    GWS have already announced they will appeal the sanction in a bid to clear the ex-Demon for the Giants’ elimination final on Saturday week against St Kilda at the MCG.

    I really feel for Toby Bedford. He’s been sensational this year, and deserves to play finals footy.

    He made a split second decision to put his body in the way to do the team thing. It’s a tough penalty considering a player made a decision to scrape his hands over someone’s eyes and is free to play.

    They should appeal and get him off. It’s a disgraceful suspension. Nothing in it. 
    As if he’d get suspended if he wore a Blues, Pies or Sydney jumper.

    Who are you tipping in the first week of finals and what’s the best results for the Demons?

    Melbourne to make everyone's spidey-senses tingle by smacking Collingwood.

    Carlton over Adelaide.

    St Kilda and GWS to continue in a state of unobserved probabalistic uncertainty with neither being fully eliminated until the semi-final when someone finally looks and the wavefunction collapses. #quantumtipping

    Brisbane over Port.

    I would love to see Carlton smashed by Sydney after watching the Dees give the filth a touch up. 

    That would ensure a terrific weekend of gaiety and frolics at The Manor.

    Would love those results too but cant see Swans beating Bluebaggers. Swans look tired.  Not the same team that beat us in the QF last year. 

    Expect Curnow to receive loads of love from the umpires.

    Would love to see Carlton bundled out tomorrow night. 

    GWS to beat the Saints 

    Can see Port winning Saturday night. 

    And what's the other game this weekend. I just go for which ever team finished lower on the ladder.

    What I want

    - Sydney

    - Port

    - Saints

     

    What will happen

    - Carlton

    - Brisbane

    - GWS

  • Quote

    Yes.  good luck to Bedford. Mathew Lloyd ripped into the AFL and suggested a name player would not have been suspended.

    Sam MacClure  said he'd be absolutely shocked if the appeal succeeded. No way he'll be let off.

    Wrong again.

    Go Port. And Sydney

  • Quote

    So who do we want to win now?

    I'm hoping Sydney and Port get it done. Think we match up better with Sydney and we play Adelaide oval better.

    I hope Port and the Lions knock lumps out of each other. injuries left right and center.

    Do not want to see Carlton win. An agonising loss would be best.

    Would like to see the Saints get the win but i think GWS will be too strong for them.

    🤔 Interesting. Seems no one jumped on you for this comment. Yet @Jaded No More was taken to task for saying similar last night. And before the offended mount their high horses again, wishing injuries is wishing injuries, no matter the type of injury.

    BTW, I agree with both you and Jaded, BDA.

    Definitely want Port to win. Last place on earth we want to end up is  the backwater Gabba ground in a Prelim.

    Could be a moot point. We will roll up next week with a fwd line that will struggle to kick 10 goals against tonights winner. We could have won the flag if our players kicked straight. Not happening.

    Likely to go out in straight sets X 2.

    4 lost MCG finals.... urghhhh.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
