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.

    deserves a fine

    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.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
