    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!

    Lisa Hannon (AFL): The act of jumping to smother ... carried not only the inherent risk of head high contact, but real potential to cause injury.

    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.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
