AFL tribunal caved in to media pressure to clear Maynard. Shows the power of propaganda.

    That is not true, they have an AFL hub up at Cavanbah.

    Perhaps you feel that way because of the Gold Coast link and area,  

    Byron wear magpie jumpers so I made the decision not to support them when I found that out earlier this year.

    Gerard Whateley interviewing Toby Greene tonight on 360:

    Whateley: So Toby, let’s start with the Maynard case. Did you have empathy for him throughout the week, with all the scrutiny he had to put up with.

    Greene: No.

    Toby Greene has just gone up a Millenium in my opinion!😁

    Get over guys…I am angered, but we have a game of football to win. MFC, if they are fair dinkum, will channel the aggression on Friday night and win. I’d be happy to win and get a few suspensions, just to make a point. Practice the flying smother bumps this week

    You know what always works? Telling people to calm down or get over it. 10 times out of 10 everyone does just that.

    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. 

    How about letting people vent ffs?!?!

    Wishing ill on an opposition player is quite natural when you’re a passionate af supporter and your team’s just been screwed over in such a way. I’m wishing ill on the whole [censored] Collingwood team right now. I’m sure I’m not alone.

    Suspect we'll see some rule changes next season.

     

    I wonder...

    To do so would be to admit error.

    Might open a very big can of worms.

    AFL might have tripped up.

    There will be many a party  gobsmacked and seething.

    My true wish is that these Turkies get sued in later years for failing to stop acts like this with non decisions. 

    Where is the deterrent?

    Talk about precedence. 

    The sad thing is, most of expected this. Shows how flawed it all is.

    Thanks for the insights guys.

    Let's just dream of winning 8 more quarters and then.....

    Good night. Kiss your loved ones.

    There are plenty of teams to play for in the adapted game, of 9 on 9.

    Not to mention that since Friday all I’ve read is Collingwood fans wishing injury to Gus and his entire family. 
    But hey Collingwood can do whatever they want.

    Yeah that was the biggest dog act. I will never forgive or forget that one either. If I ever see Michael Long in the street I will remind him that he is and always will be a gutless sniper.

    Martin will wish his case went first and I would have expected Carlton to have agitated for this .Sadly and completely unjustly he will be offered to the public by the AFL as the sacrifice for Maynard decision.Martin  now does not have a chance and is not playing Friday night.

    "I make absolutely no apologies for the fact that this has taken nearly three hours.

    A footballer was concussed and stretchered from the MCG in a final, another footballer has got a couple of pretty important games he’ll either play in or miss depending in part on what we decide tonight."

    Remember when Brent Moloney got suspended because the other bloke fell over and got concussed but Moloney didn't even may contact with him. What a farce

    I understand your sentiment, I found the area to have a very diverse cultural mix. Get stuck in one group and it is like the others don't exist.

    That area has it all, up to you to look.

    Brayshaw could’ve executed his kick in a different direction or in a different manner, landed in a different manner or in a slightly different location.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
