I do have serious issues with the arrogant ignorant. 

So how do you live with yourself then Polly?

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)

Now for the 1 hour deliberations 

All show..

Decision made days ago 😉

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

Apparently the Collingwood lawyer is now arguing the twin towers veered into the path of the Boeing 767 on 9/11

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.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
