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.

    What a 4 hour circus for expected outcome.

    Nice theatre AFL.

    Had the chance but sadly didn’t convince anyone on head contact in AFL

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
