The AFL won’t appeal it sounded like they hardly argued. just went through the motions 

That’s because they DID hardly argue!!! I was labelled a tinfoil hat wearer but it’s the truth. The AFL had so many brilliant points to argue… but chose not to. They got what they want.

    Why is Jvr suspended?

     

    May as well have brought JVR to the tribunal seeing the tribunal will be throwing cases out like hard rubbish.

    Nothing surer than Martin being free to play.

    Dropping the shoulder into the opponent's head after a smother attempt is now legal in footy opening the flood gates for others to do it 

    Watch it happen more often in junior ranks

    Great legacy Gil

    I want Goodwin to come out and say 'OK we're going to train the smother'.

    Will Brayshaw be cited for a dangerous block? I mean he kicked the ball then moved toward Maynard in a menacing manner.

    Gil McLachlan, what a legacy you've delivered.

    Match day experience is horrible. 

    The game is becoming a mess

    The MRO is a farce.

    Roy and HG have been calling you the murderer for years. They are spot on.

    You've killed this game for many of us. But not your financial partners hey.

    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

    Incompetent or else they were drawing out all their arguments against which to appeal 

    What would Occam say?


    That’s the last straw for me. Off to wtch local footy next year. Would have got weeks in EDFL.

    Absolutely gutted by this decision of the panel.

    The fact that the AFL themselves (Gleeson) instructed the tribunal to consider the fact that Maynard may miss finals/important games says all you need to know about the whole case.

    Quite honestly nothing would make me happier than to watch GWS or Port absolutely physically destroy them. 
    Go on Toby, let’s test out that mangled arm of his. 

    Me too. I want them out in the next game. I want them beaten by 60 points. The corrupt AFL wants them in the GF. I want them out.


    Just run through and shirtfront( better yet clothes-line) your opponents...   surely it'd be their fault.

    I'm glad I moved to Byron Bay where no one gives a [censored] about AFL and I can forget about football for a while.

    The crappiest part is we can’t do anything unless we stop attending the footy.

    What we can do in the meantime is get our boys over the line on Friday night. They need us more than ever.

    Yeah it was a football act, he came in and gave Blakey a good whack to the head. That’s footy, surely?

    However frustrated you and I feel, wishing physical harm on a player is not called for. 
     

    Reverse the roles an imagine what you would say if other teams wished harm on one of our players.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
