So you are now not allowed to leave the ground to attempt to smother a handball or kick ? Wtf  this getting ridiculous 

Depends on the club and what the media decides

 

Played golf with Adrian Anderson a few years back just after the tanking debacle,

He hates Melbourne.

Why TF we use him is beyond me.

Rivers tackles Butters at full pace. Butters falls and shoulder hits the ground first. Dangerous tackle. MRO. Rivers fined $3759

 

Greene sling tackles Andrew. Andrew falls and his head hits the ground. MRO. Nothing to see here. 🤢🤢🤢🤢

Okay

who replaces Kozzie

Woey Jnr. and bring in Tomlinson as the sub


Wasn't it Adrian Anderson who was arguing against us all those years ago for the Trengove sling on Dangerfield?

He gets us both ways  😭

I can’t believe Greene was found innocent 

Mac Andrews was slung to the ground and his head bounced off the turf….

WTF

I look forward to all the reasonings next time around when it’s one of the afl’s favourites they need to get out of a minor bump.. 

Sounds like a pretty average performance from Anderson but the lawyering up front is only part of the process, other key pieces include “how will this make the AFL look in the media?” and “how will this affect the class action lawsuits down the track?” 


This HAS to be the standard now.
I always thought it unlikely he'd get off but was bemused as anyone about Fogerty's collision with Fyfe being graded the same as Kozzie's.
If your feet leave the ground and you hit someone in the head then you'll be suspended. Clearly Maynard would have got multiple weeks under the new rules. 

 

The way Kozzie was portrayed in the media compared to Maynard last year is what has made me furious about this. 
All we could hear was how courageous Maynard is and how his impact was a footy incident… Kozzie cops sniper comments, and destined for weeks comments.
 

If this is the decision made by the AFL then get rid of the low grading on impact regarding head high contact. It’s not going to get any lower than Kozzie’s 

The AFL make it up as they go! Totally laughable!, That piece of excrement from Filth makes my blood boil, AGAIN,  cheeezus Im am totally and thoroughly Peeeeezzed! OF 

Time for RAGS to debut!! 

Gee this MRP and tribunal is the thing of Fantasy! Land. Just watch interpretation and reinterpretation get a fair airing,particulalrly if you are Ferals, Carltank, or Jeelong! STINKS!

Never.  If you don’t argue you get walked over all the time, not a waste if it helps next time

AGREE, TOTAL FARCE!!

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
