Not even factual posts about the charges?

Unfortunately, no.

Based on past experience, whenever we’ve tried to set clear rules or guidelines for certain types of sensitive discussions or content that could have legal reprocussions, a significant number of posters either ignore or struggle to follow them.

This puts an unreasonable burden on the moderation team, who are then forced to wade through posts, dissect comments line by line, and make difficult judgment calls about what can stay and what needs to be removed. It becomes a time-consuming and often contentious process.

As a result, it’s far simpler and more effective to disallow the topic entirely rather than attempt to selectively moderate individual posts.

    I actually thought May was pretty good on the weekend. We would be a worse side without him in it.

    Agree FND he stood up really well, he and TMac both did especially when Disco was sent forward to replace Harry Petty after half time we were a bit short forward and back. You can feel that Maysie isn’t quite right but he is such a great competitor.

    i thought he was good, but not great

    the panicked kick out of d50 has become the occasional rather than the exception

    and the round before i honestly thought lynch was edging towards keeping the tigs' competitive

    what i find is that he needs some consistent footy; difficult at the moment with the way that our games are spread out

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
