Luke Parker Strike in the VFL

Sydney's Luke Parker ran past the ball and elbowed a Frankston player in the face, forcing him off the ground with a broken jaw. It was totally off the ball and not a football act. I disliked Parker how he mocked an Essendon player for being weak. But his actions were weak and now dislike him even more now.

    Googled "Luke Parker Frankston" and just saw the incident - a disgusting act. I hope they absolutely throw the book at him. Disgrace.

    Parker must have had it in for the frankston player for what ever reason. How can a guy do that when they are trying to get back into the seniors???? 6 weeks.

    Was a shepherd style bump on a bloke 5m behind the ball and Parker running opposite direction

    I suggest the damaging contact was back of head to cheek rather than elbow or arm. No excuse tho, he chose to spear a bloke that wasn't in play and not expecting it - Parker responsible for the consequences

    Grub act

    He was near stationary.
    Both feet planted.
    In this new world he might get a couple weeks cause the bloke was KO'd but the Karens calling for his head need to get a grip.
    Play on I say.

    Looks like a high shepard. However the ball was loose, so no excuse for him not to go for the ball. Plus he clearly got him high with severe impact.

    Minimum 4 weeks I'd reckon.  VFL and AFL have slightly different disciplinary systems so it's hard to line up this incident with similar ones at AFL level. 

    Dog act though.  Totally unnecessary

    • Demonland changed the title to Luke Parker Strike in the VFL

    Looked like a legit shepherd gone wrong except that none of his teammates had the footy.

    So not sure what he was attempting to do.

    To me it has the strong whiff of a frustrated player taking his anger out on an opportune target. Reminiscent of Alex Rance whacking a prostrate Jack Watts in the back of the head after being beaten in a marking contest a few years ago.

    I think that’s about right, but wouldn’t be surprised if it’s more. Pretty ordinary act.

    Kozzie would have gotten 10 weeks plus 3000 articles about what a thug he is

     

    Parker? Hardly been mentioned

    Play on? 
    The player was hospitalised with facial fractures from all reports.

    It was totally unnecessary from Parker.

    Do they have a tribunal process in the VFL? 4 weeks is insufficient.

    lifted slightly to get him high. Shoulder breaking his jaw.

    This should end your season, doing this in late May.

    Yes, they do have a tribunal...I would think he will have to front it.

    • 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.

      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?

      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?
