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,

Most AFL experts had the Lions winning the flag

massive choke against the blues

now this in the west

no [censored] idea

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

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res
