He lifted a player off the ground and dumped him off the ball. That’s dangerous and silly. Nothing defensive about that. 

He was surrounded by half a team trying to provoke him in any way they could, including physically. I would argue it is defensive/minor retaliation with minimal capacity to cause injury.

    Brisbane have no drive of half back.

    They also can’t really do without Neale

    Great to see the two teams I dislike the most in Collingwood and Brisbane lose their opening two games.

    That’s not how AFL works. You cannot retaliate by throwing a guy to the ground like you’re in the WWE. It doesn’t matter how much they push your buttons. He’s lucky the guy didn’t hit his head or he’d be out for weeks. 

    This is exactly why they provoked him. He’s a dumb hot head.

    I assumed he got rubbed out for kicking the guy in the shins from the video

    Losing Kiddy Coleman really screwed up their ability to use the ball quickly and calmly off half back. He’s probably their most important player to their set up and I reckon it shows, like you mentioned,

    The so called footy experts are nothing but washed up over opinionated ex players searching for click bait.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road for their 3rd interstate game in 4 weeks as they face a fit and firing Crows at Adelaide Oval. With finals now out of our grasps what are you hoping from the Dees today?

    • 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.
