Tribunal (has changed from first advised): Jeff Gleeson (Chair), Scott Stevens, Darren Gaspar Legal reps: Andrew Woods (AFL), Ben Ihle (Collingwood)
 

so, what do we know about woods and ihle?  @redleg 

 

Going to be a long night.

A professor giving written evidence is not available until 5pm to answer questions via a video call. Jeff Gleeson notes the evidence includes reference to Galileo and Isaac Newton

They'd both be ripper blokes and good mates of MC I'd reckon

You know what, they see it through Collingwood eyes just as we'd see it through Melbourne eyes if Viney did that too Pendlebury. In fact take out the crazy and it's the same stuff as we read here but through black and white eyes. 

80% of them are just us born into a Collingwood family. (20% of them are inbred scum)

If Viney did something similar, I would say he deserved a suspension. But I doubt that he would because he is generally a ferocious but fair competitor whose sole aim is to win the ball.

Let's say this had been a Collingwood training session and the kicker was Nick Daicos. Does anyone think for one moment that Maynard would have launched himself as recklessly as he did?


Good on Gussy’s brother Hamish. Just saw on the ch. 7 4pm news he said what we all know but what no one will say publicly… that the AFL want Collingwood in the grand final and they’ll do anything to make that happen.

He wouldn't have tried to jump at all.

The "smother" attempt was as unrealistic as you can get.

Apparently he already retracted, at least from what I have seen on TW.

Here’s how I want this to go down:

- Angus is fit and healthy, continues on his career and has no ongoing issues.

- Maynard gets suspended for the rest of the finals.

- Everyone in the future refers to this story by saying ‘remember that time Brayden Maynard called Angus Brayshaw’s mum, and she told him to [censored] off?’

Too late. We all saw and heard it. I’m happy that it was said. 

Have the Pies appealed yet?

this is all so pointless

Don't speak out against the mafia.

"A professor giving written evidence is not available until 5pm to answer questions via a video call. Jeff Gleeson notes the evidence includes reference to Galileo and Isaac Newton."

Forget those old physicists. The real clinching evidence will come from references to Albert Einstein.  It's all relativity.

The decision of the Tribunal will reflect the relative importance of C'wood to the AFL.

Have we all forgotten this? Long time ago, granted.

I'm not condoning these sorts of actions and I will be happy to see if the AFL has evolved to stamp thus sort of stuff out of the game.

Maynard says he was not expecting Brayshaw to move in the way he did after kicking the ball, which was towards Maynard.

 

Can't let this bs slide. He literally planted one foot after kicking the ball before maynard cleaned him up. Didn't change direction and maynard only had eyes fixated on brayshaw.

Looks like they are going to sing bohemian rhapsody at some point.

Laughable! 

“[censored], he was there,” Maynard said. “I was surprised he came into my way.”

Maynard said he was looking at the football the whole time.

Quite diffferent. They were contesting the ball.  May still be worth a penalty but nothing like the present case.

Is this guy for real?!!!! How is so  much stupidity squeezed into one body????? It defies physics.

Woods (AFL): It was clear to you that you were going to collide hard with Brayshaw.

 

Maynard: No. I did not know what was going to happen after I went to make a football act.

After I smothered the ball ?.?

I looked down and thought sxxt he's there = Gus's fault for somehow getting in Maynard's way by the looks.

Woods (AFL): It was clear to you that you were going to collide hard with Brayshaw.

 

Maynard: No. I did not know what was going to happen after I went to make a football act.
 

oh now he’s surely just taking the [censored].

That's the problem with lack of control. Just like he lost major control when he launched himself like a scud missile (Which apparently isn't his fault), he also can't control movements that other players make.

Yes. What footballer would use those words without coaching and following the company line.

  • 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.
