All they have to do - and should do - is Kozzy was eyes for the ball, when he elected to bump when both running in same direction. Unfortunately for Moore he elected to drop to the ground at the same time Kozzy leant in. 
Dismissed.

 

If he gets suspended for this we are literally getting bent over.

GET IN THE BIOMECHANIST AND GET THAT [censored] CHUCKED OUT QUICK SMART!

Get all the lawyers and biomechanists and character witnesses, ridiculous that is three matches, not fair just because it's kozzie.

I would love to ask him why he raised his elbow though.

If he didn't do that I think he'd be fine. 

But as I've said kozzi missing games for us is so frustrating

He didn’t raise the elbow. He gently raised his forearm as you do when you’re using your hip to body someone for the ball. There is no elbow striking motion. He can’t disconnect his arm from his body.

 

This decision in the context of the season is like a tap to the nuts after going 12 rounds with Tyson.

Raised his arm at the last minute and made contact with opponent's head.

Opponent subbed off, presumably as a result of said contact.

Pickett with a long list of priors.

What will happen, Demonlanders?

The poll is anonymous, so call it as you see it.

I predict a couple of weeks.

Moore ‘accidentally’ ruptures Petracca’s spleen breaks four ribs and kills his desire for footy in a careless act. No penalty. Kozzie slides in and accidentally hits Moore’s head with his shoulder. Three weeks. Or the death penalty! Outrageous.

Hard to ignore how much the negatives override the positives isn’t it?

For those arguing that Pickett should not be suspended, here's a hypothetical.

Would you take the same view if all circumstances were identical but Maynard was the player making contact and Kozzy was subbed out with concussion as a result? 

In other words, are you seeing this incident through a red and blue lens (like we all do at times)?

I think he was always getting done once Moore was taken off. I just don’t trust that Moore is really concussed. Nor do I think it’s worth 3 weeks. 

If the club does nothing I will spew 🤢🤢🤢 our club is bullied by other clubs like Collingwood and now the AFL. [censored] disgrace.

I have a feeling that it wasn’t Christian, but rather Laura Kane who has decided this and then the Tribunal can deal with a challenge.

I think the word concussion, no matter how caused, dictates her thinking, in view of current litigation.

Yes same thoughts. Darcy Moore contributed to the head high. Kozzie would have been surprised as anyone to get him in the head.

What the hell could he do when that moron slid to the contest, for goodness sake APPEAL!  Christian has form, especially for his own team.  This is ludicrous. Doesn’t assist my hate for the AFL, it is completely corrupt.

AFL is [censored].

MFC is the only thing that matters.

By our club too. Time to make some waves and rock the boat. Enough is enough 


I’m outraged by this call.  It is just so wrong!  I thought one week would be tough given Moore’s complicity in the accident, but when the word ‘concussion’ came into the equation, I was half prepared for that outcome.  However three weeks is completely beyond the pale.  It’s outrageous and totally unjust!  We simply must appeal!

Ha, what? What is this? What are you saying? 
 

absolute 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

Moore completely causes this incident by electing to slide in at the last second, trouble is our advocate is a dud plus Gleeson will deny any expert testimony.

I have to say that Kozzy has been much more careful this year and has stopped a lot of his follow through, that used to get him in trouble.

The AFL double standards here are a joke: always throwing the book at the easy targets, to make sure they’re seen as doing the right thing but remain completely sycophantic to the noisy, bigger clubs.

I don’t know how anyone can compare Houston’s bump to Kozzy’s contact last night. They are very very different.

That wasn’t what I was saying. I was inferring that footy has changed. The bump is dead. The rules are opaque, the umps struggle to interpret them and all the AFL can do is count its money. Kozzie had no hope even though it’s clearly an accident with zero intent. No one knows how the tribunal make half their decisions.

  • CASEY: Sydney

    The Casey Demons were always expected to emerge victorious in their matchup against the lowly-ranked Sydney Swans at picturesque Tramway Oval, situated in the shadows of the SCG in Moore Park. They dominated the proceedings in the opening two and a half quarters of the game but had little to show for it. This was primarily due to their own sloppy errors in a low-standard game that produced a number of crowded mauls reminiscent of the rugby game popular in old Sydney Town. However, when the Swans tired, as teams often do when they turn games into ugly defensive contests, Casey lifted the standard of its own play and … it was off to the races. Not to nearby Randwick but to a different race with an objective of piling on goal after goal on the way to a mammoth victory. At the 25-minute mark of the third quarter, the Demons held a slender 14-point lead over the Swans, who are ahead on the ladder of only the previous week's opposition, the ailing Bullants. Forty minutes later, they had more than fully compensated for the sloppiness of their earlier play with a decisive 94-point victory, that culminated in a rousing finish which yielded thirteen unanswered goals. Kicks hit their targets, the ball found itself going through the middle and every player made a contribution.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
    This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
