Elbows a bloke in the throat.

Just a fine.

Something stinks in the Afl nowadays.

Blokes untouchable.

I wonder who really pays the fine.

    Is anyone here surprised?

    Nup but the three weeks dished out for a dangerous tackle the other day seems pretty harsh now.

    Wasted energy to care whats happening with him in any regard. 
    Take away the names and faces and you’d surely just say it’s unlucky and the tackler deserves a free.

    And Heeney copped a week for attempting to foil a player's hold on his jumper. Compare the respective actions. The inconsistency between incident and penalty is an indictment on the AFL.

    Thanks J.

    Your right but I just think unless he learns he's going to destroy another players career again.

    But yea it's not worth the angst.

    Cheers.

    Throw Christian to the lions

    The lions would find him as indigestable as I find the AFL.

    Football act....I know this as Ginnivan is still alive. Had he died then it definitely would be a week. 

    He's a good bloke, justice is served, blah blah blah .

    The tribunal and inconsistent umpiring/score review process are leading causes of my growing apathy towards AFL. I barely watch games anymore.

    It's not that I hate the AFL or the game, because hate implies caring. I just do not give a rats about footy the way I used to, because there's no sense in committing so much energy to something that makes no sense and which you cannot control.

    That's a shame chook.

    Obviously it used to give you enjoyment.

    Try and look past all the cr.p and enjoy the positive aspects.

    Cheers

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
