Maynard unscathed

I thought he'd at least be on the receiving end of one or two crunching tackles.

He gave them instead. And his mate Moore pushed his knee into Tracs spleen.

Way to wave the flag for Gus.

Maynard not bruised even fairly isn't a great look.

Especially after all the talk about a response.

    Yep, very damning to see.

    I wonder how Gus feels about this lack of standing up for him.

    Our blokes would get 4 weeks plus. HQ $$$ generating teams players get premiership medals.

    Looks at the umpire every time he's touched. Can't stand the bloke and the protection racket around him. That 50 was a disgrace.

    Could have crunched him and still lost by 6 goals; that doesn’t make me feel any better about losing Gus. The retribution I wanted was to smash them on the scoreboard.

    Collingwood players were laughing in our faces, pathetic effort. Hope Gus wasn’t watching because that was an embarrassing effort

    Our guys don't do physical pressure that well full stop.

    We don't body spoil.

    We don't run hard enough straight line at opponents.

    We corale too much.

    We don't know the sneaky art of hurting opponents. Ala Moore knee into Petracca.

    We play happy happy joy joy footy under Goodwin.

    No wonder Maysy gets so [censored] off.

    Would have preferred him on the trolley rather than Tracca.

    There was no need for Moore to put his knee out. It was always a spoil.

    Just like Maynards act wasn't a footy one.

    That's the dirty way the pies play.

    About time for once we did the same.

    We were a good player down just like last time.

    It's straight out of the filth playbook.

    And we let it slide.

    Just like we nobody gave Moore a hard time.

    Again another weak response.  Aside from Viney, how many blokes actually fly the flag.  Not many soldiers in the trenches !!!! 

    Yep ... And though he's tough as they come he aint big or scary.

    Don't want to be too harsh on Petracca but did you guys notice the shaking hands he had with the thug as they were lining up for the start of the game?

    He should have at least ignores his offering tbh.

    Leave it alone. The goal was to win today not to take Maynard out.

    Same here. That was bizarre.

    Problem is that we, as a club, are too nice.

    It's good to be nice and gentlemanly when warranted, but against the likes of Collingwood... Spare me any sportmanships.

    When you’ve got a supporter base full of members who find it to emotionally distressing to turn up. Why should the club go after him? 
     

    There isn’t a softer club in the AFL than us. We have as much backbone as the apologists on this forum that think it’ll be ok and we aren’t that bad..

    I’m sure I’ll be torn down for this comment. But I couldn’t care less. I went to the game and stood in the outer until the final siren went.

    I was one of the 5k melb members there.

    Not all of the supportes are "soft". But regardless of that, our players should be more self aware.

    Really Layzie.

    If your best mate was retired from his career wouldn't you wave the flag for him.

    Not talking about illegal whacks but some crunching tackles by several players to at least put him off his game.

    Not like he didn't deserve them.

    And as for winning the game we didn't. So the two things are not mutually exclusive.

    In fact some agro would have served us well I reckon. Maynard played well. We didn't make him panic.

    And at the end of the day at least probably put a smile on poor Gussys dial.

    • 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 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?
