You can do what you want but if you make contact to the head you are [censored]

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!

Was always going to fail. Was a waste of 10k

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

AGREE, TOTAL FARCE!!

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
