Hes been cleared, FMD. I love this club but done with the game.

I’ll join you if Martin gets off tonight as well.

    When they tell you the AFL isn’t a corrupt piece of trash organization and you want to believe them. But you can’t.

    The fix is in. It’s crystal clear to me that the AFL went to Christian and said “don’t worry mate, we will send this to the Tribunal, will prosecute it for a few minutes and Maynard will get off. Christian withdraws his threat to resign.

    Money talks.

    Well that has opened a can of worms. Anyone can take out an opposing player in the guise of smothering the ball🤬

    Maynard grilled by Chairman 

    Chairman Jeff Gleeson has popped in for a few questions.

    He wants more clarity on why Maynard thinks he couldn't have outstretched his arms to lessen the impact, rather than turning his body.

    "I think, with all due respect, the same outcome would have happened," Maynard said.

    "I feel like when I went to smother, it was a flinch reaction, and like I said, he was in my way."

    Gleeson asks again why Maynard couldn't have left his arms wide open.

    "I feel the same outcome would have happened because it was a collision. It happened very quickly.

    "I didn't see him coming down my line. I saw him to the right of me."

    If Maynard opts to be putting his arms out, there is NOT the same outcome.  That’s wrong.  

    Which he essentially is saying does not matter what he was going to do he was going to flattern gus, far better that he tuck his shoulder into gus's head to save himself from getting hurt. yes i think that arguement will go down well with this mob.

    Well now anything's fair game. I'm staying off social media. Could only imagine what the ferals are saying 

    • Angry 1

    This is [censored] outrageous. How the [censored] can this happen? I’m in disbelief, cannot fathom how they came to this decision. So, bring on the smother!!! It’s a free-for-all. Hope our players smother the [censored] out of every opportunity on Friday. [censored] the AFL. 

    [censored] YOU AFL

    I truly hope they get sued into the ground and cease to exist. 

    If AFL doesn't appeal this I'm [censored] done

    Geez, I hope the AFL have what it takes to exercise (what I believe is their right) to appeal this decision.

    The AFL must appeal the decision if they originally went with a recommended 3+ game penalty

    And what a weak effort prosecuting.  It was as if they couldn't be bothered even trying

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
