    It's almost a replica of the Maynard Assault.

    I thought P-P was stiff. A Port player turned the poor Crow dude directly into P-P's path...P-P never left the ground with the intention to thump....

    It’s hard to argue with that. His only intention was the upper body and he jumped off the ground. These things happen quickly but they are an eternity to these guys.

    Simpkin was distressed with concussion symptoms immediately from the vision.

    What are we doing here? The week after a bloke is medically retired due to hits to the head.

    What is the game about?

    i don't think it's going to be 10, but it should start at 6

    in other concussion news, will pucovski was sconned second ball of his innings down in tasmania

    he needs to be brayshaw'd and medically retired from sport where there's a chance of his head being hit

    8 weeks for Webster.

    FFS. That is everything we can’t have in the game.

    Make him miss two months of footy and he, and others, might finally learn.

    We would be en-[censored]-raged if that happened to one of our players.

    Enlighten me then, o wise and holy one.

    Actually was gonna ask you to settle a debate of sorts between me and another DL-er. He thinks you’re referring to a certain incident and I think you’re referring to a different incident.

    Incidentally, I’m very often NOT in the dark as you put it. No, I’m very often across things that aren’t public knowledge, just as you seem to be, or at least, you imply you are. Difference is I choose not to hint at things, or let everyone know that I know something they don’t know.

    If you can’t explain why Harmes is a bad boy, perhaps @dazzledavey36 can; I see he gave your post a thumbs up. 

    Please do not drag me into your guys high school gossip [censored].

    Prefer to talk footy thanks.

    Sort it over a DM you two.

    If the AFL want to make a statement on a head high bump then this is the perfect case study right here with this incident.

    You'd think 6 weeks at least is a starting point.

    They’ll throw the book at Webster. Very dangerous and very dumb.

    We will soon find out.

    Pp was dealt with properly although I'm not sure why they deliberated so long for.

    I hope this is sorted out pronto.

    Keep handing out minimum four week bans and players will soon start to behave.

    This warrants more than four for me. ( As was the Maynard hit).

    For sure. However,  take the red from their guernsey and I wouldn't be so confident.  😠

    It’s actually a replica of the Cripps hit which concussed his victim and put him out of the finals.

    Cripps’ penalty, a Brownlow.

    Blood oath it was. Webster can hardly be expected to avoid a collision when he's left the ground. He's like a frisbee with arms and legs. And Simpkin's momentum after kicking carried him in the direction of Webster, so it's all on him, really. I'm sure a few QCs arguing for 5 hours that up is down will sort this out amicably, with Webster being cleared.

    Oh.

    NOW you're asking for multiple weeks for a head high collision.

    Well, I suppose it's never too late. (Unless you're Angus Brayshaw.)

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
