Apperantly Dutchy and Johnson of the Bulldogs are both under investigation for their altercation yesterday.

Brad Johnson is being investigated for head-butting (how the hell did he grow 10cm to actually reach Holland's head, I don't know :wacko: ), and Dutchy for the very serious allegation of eye-gouging.

The outcome will be known tomorrow.

All I can say is, thank god Carroll kept his cool...

    When i saw it on the TV i thought there could be a problem for Dutchy but i don't think it was deliberate. Hopefully he won't get in trouble. As for Johnson, i hop he gets 6 weeks for whatever he did, i hate him so much on the field! (recon he could be a good bloke off though)

    I don't think it matters. I don't expect Dutchy to be making the trip west anyway.

    Anyone looking at why Godfrey fainted on the wing, with West leaving the scene?

    But of course not :rolleyes:

    Two weeks in a row Godders is smacked behind play, and two weeks in a row his opponent gets away with it.

    I wonder if Kerr will be so lucky when he inevitably gives him one this weekend.

    As far as taggers go, Godfrey is a fair player. I have never seen him do anything illegal, in fact, has he ever been suspended?

    I don't know why he isn't getting umpire protection.

    According to Hutchy (god I hate that man!) on Footy Classifieds, West is under investigation for that hit behind play on Godders.

    So maybe that will put a stop to players belting the premium tagger of the AFL :D

    Copped a reprimand in 05 or 06 for a heavy bump. May have been in Adelaide.

    Having said that, for a tagger who gets under everyone's skins, he does appear to be a fair player.

    With due respect does Godfrey have sign on his solar plexus and head saying hit me. Godfrey is doing what he has to do to nullify a more talented player. He is being a serial pest to these players. Whether he is always being a fair player is a moot point and an assumption at best.

    Holland to face tribunal for eye gouging, maybe holland could say he could not see because of the blood coming( in the world of WWF he must have bladed himself ) from his forehead.

    johnson in the clear and so is west.

    I meant fair as in not being Cam Mooney, Des Headland, Broadie Holland, Fraser Gehrig etc....cheap shots for the sake of cheap shots.

    I don't mind players being serial pests as long as they don't go out snotting blokes like the above named.

    i agree entirely. Rhino Richards, watch how godfrey tags. he gets in front of players, he positions them away from the ball and he is quick to react: when west got around him he tackled him as soon as he got the pill. that is a lot different to holding on, pulling the jumper and stopping the other player contesting the ball.

    1.B Dont diss melbourne

    And dont put them down by saying dont bet on them i dont think you even watch footy!!

    tazzie arem made a great point. we are almost as schizophrenic as either geelong or the dockers. we dont win the games we should (ie carlton last year), we constantly play above ourselves to pull of other games, then this year we lose 7 in a row, but we could easily have own the last 2. betting on melbourne is gambling suicide...

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
