    I will try break this down as best I can.

     

    The Dees are arguing this is rough conduct but not a bump.

     

    Basically, they argue impact should not have been upgraded based on potential to cause injury because it does not qualify as a bump in their view.

    We have spent the last 40 minutes debating whether we allow evidence from a Professor Cole. The Tribunal finds it will not have a meaningful impact on the crux of this case.

     

    Effectively, these first 40 minutes have been a prelude.

    I assume Anderson got JVR and/or Fritta off as i couldn’t imagine why they’d go back to him otherwise.

    Kozzy’s bump is medium impact and Toby Greene‘s dangerous tackle on Mac Andrew is absolutely fine? Given the player who Kozzy tackled wasn’t injured and played on, I assume Kozzy’s tackle was deemed medium impact due to the potential to cause injury. Based on this, then surely Greene’s tackle on Mac Andrew also has the potential to cause serious injury and he should have been suspended?

    Are you saying that IN EVERY INSTANCE, Any impact to the head is now graded as Medium??? Seriously, the game is turning into Pickelball, or Dueling Crotchet needles, what a FARCE! it also means ANY head contact is now reportable even flicking a mosquito of an opponents brow.

    HOW PAARKING AFL!

    Hannon (AFL) says a combination of force, body positioning of Pickett at moment of impact and genuine potential to cause injury should see this graded 'medium' impact.

    Anderson (Dees) says Pickett decelerates as he jumps for the ball and it is "a much less significant impact as a result."

    Anderson (Dees) notes Pickett's fist wasn't clenched at the moment of impact, which is not consistent with a decision to bump.

    Lachie Fogarty has in fact appeared at tonight's Tribunal, via vision of Jack Viney's bump on him from the 2023 Semi-Final.

    The Tribunal is now deliberating.

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
