I’m ok with this as he did stage and got a free out of doing so, tbh I think the fine should be much more.

Now watch as no one else gets done for staging.

    Sorry but this gets fined but the countless of other garbage staging we’ve seen for years doesn’t?

    There is not a day that goes by where I don’t hate the AFL more 

    I didn’t like it and I’m fine with the punishment. Just be consistent tho for goodness sake. Nick Daicos would NEVER get fined for doing the same and worse.

    If May gets $1800, Xavier Duursma is about to get a $250,000 fine for his effort this afternoon.

    It’s great that he has been fined…. Absolutely the right call. 
     

    I am perplexed how this is the only staying fine for the year however… we really should be seeing multiple a week. 
     

    Brodie Kemp & Nick Daicos will be playing for free if this is the new precedent

    How about a retroactive one for Rozee in-front of goal? Or about 100 other players.

    Lets be honest, May did it to reverse what would’ve been a heinous holding the ball free.

    Now, why Steven May is a deer in the headlights and can’t run with the footy I don’t know but it’s been an escalating problem for a while. The big fella doesn’t like being tackled.

    Fine, don't disagree with that. But now they've set a precedent they need to stick to it... but of course, they won't.

    Umpire should be dropped for not blowing the whistler earlier.

    I think that happens in the umpire changing rooms after the game.

    I reckon Rivaldo still has Maysie covered.

    Wish the AFL would introduce fines on umpires making [censored] decisions.
    Give to charity and make the boys in yellow more accountable.

    Definitely staged and ok with the fine. That said, players do the same thing, multiple times in every game, and don’t hear of them being fined.

    I’m with you

     

    Consistency. Will the club say anything about consistently applying it? Probably not. But they should. And if they don’t….

    Let’s hope the AFL  stay consistent on this… i’m becoming convinced the blues players practice it.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
