That's my concern

So Maynard knows that Brayshaw will veer slightly to his right as he was kicking on his right and lined him up accordingly

Basic footy 101 and as you said, Steve, the tribunal members need to know the natural movements

Except not according to this…

“Ihle (Pies) says many players who kick the ball at full tilt with their right foot go off to their left, rather than their right as Brayshaw did.”

He’s saying the exact opposite, Macca. Am I missing something?

I don’t understand.

I hope they zero in on that stutter step and question it

Yes, it would be good if @Ouch! was one of the tribunal members as he enlightened us on the stutter step

This seriously can't be our medical report? Adelaide buried Jack Trengove in 2011 with their medical report

That’s not the medical report they sent in. It’s the medical report that they released to fans. 
They are required to send in a proper medical report. One they would never release publicly.

Don’t you see? The AFL deliberately presented a very weak case. That way, he’ll get off, which is what they want, but it will look as though they tried to have him convicted. 

Theatre at it's incredulously absurd.

There is nothing about fairness or accountability.  It's all about smoke, mirrors...i.e optics.

Just think why it takes 4-5 years of study to become an apprentice lawyer.

Yep. Reminds me of Jean Giraudoux

There is no better way of exercising the imagination than the study of law. No poet ever interpreted nature as freely as a lawyer interprets the truth.

He's lying

For anyone out there ... find an open space at home and run and then feign to kick on your right foot

In the kicking action you make room and veer to your right slightly(to kick the ball straight (ish)

Hmmmm I wonder why that wasn’t brought up. 

They either didn't think of it or missed it

I don't think it'll matter. They'll just appeal and appeal and get an injunction until October

Serious question, can they get an injunction until after finals? Has that been done before and will a court of law in Australia intervene in this manner?

I would like a real lawyer to answer this Rollo… @Redleg?

time for the committee to go off and have a few beers for a few hours make it look like they are discussing it when in reality they have probably already decided that his is innocent What is truely disappointing is that so many commentators and other football players are saying there is nothing wrong with this. is that the way they feel about sling tackles no, this was far worse than a sling tackle.

It's like a proper golf shot ... hit it out to right to draw the ball back to the left

At my ripe old age I can still kick a footy with a draw and to do that you have to veer slightly to the right in the kicking action ... the foot goes slighty to the right working it's way to the left on the follow through

A lot of players kick the ball like that including Gus.  He can also kick on his left drawing the ball back to the left (his left is more of a hook but not too pronounced)

I saw a dark horse in GWS up-and-coming, they might be capable of knocking PA and the pies out of the finals series. Just be patient.

Yeah nah the good ship HMAS Patience has sailed. Folks on the dock waved their handkerchiefs (why did they even do this?) and it’s long gone.

Of course I’d love to see that team of reprobates crash out of the finals. But that has nothing to do with this injustice.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
