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.

You say pressure I say opportunity. 

What I want

- Sydney

- Port

- Saints

 

What will happen

- Carlton

- Brisbane

- GWS


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

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.


Screw the rest of this finals round. Couldn't give a bee's [censored] what happens. Enjoy but I'm out!

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.

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
