Big test for the AFL will they become serious with player penalties or will they continue down the good guy, big name player course

    Probably will given a week - club and media firestorm to follow - then appeal - downgraded to fine.

    The AFL integrity machine will be working overtime. 

    Nibbler, Jack Trengove and all the other “middle tier” victims from all clubs to this corrupt regime say hi.

    Like many, if it wasn’t for the Dees, it’d be local suburban footy for me.

    Agree, shiithouse special comments guy.

    .....and when coupled with Pavlich, you just have to turn the sound off, as I do. At least others pretend to be unbiased. Not those two. 

    Ironically, neither were born and raised in WA but obviously suffer from Stockholm syndrome.

    Windsor to do a Bradbury?

    As a Dees supporter I’d love Windsor to win it, but theres no way he’ll displace Wardlaw or Owens - and fair enough too.

    Windsor has really slowed down past few weeks, looks tired

    Would love him to clean up his disposal a bit

    You can't deny this bloke is a very special talent. I look forward to seeing him play for many years. Of course I'd love for that to be in red and blue but I understand that is just a pipe dream.

    I am just pleasantly surprised that the usual preferential treatment handled out to AFL golden children didn't occur this time. Realistically, the already badly battered reputation of the AFL probably couldn't have survived another blatant miscarriage of justice.

    I also believe the decision will serve Harley himself well in his maturity and development.  Sure, it's a shame that it will cost him the Rising Star, but it also says to him, we know you are already a super footballer and a likely future great of the game, but you are subject the the same rules as everyone else. 

    This is one part of the whole thing that I hope is not a pipe dream.

    Will Schofield the most biased commentator in the AFL “what else could Reid do”. David King anything but what he did. Schofield should not be let near a microphone.

    Didn't Schofield retire early due to multiple concussions?

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
