If Moore was in fact drinking beers the next day, that would be very interesting, as it takes 3-5 days for concussion to reach its peak and then start subsiding 7-10 days, hence the 12 day AFL ban after concussion.

If he was drinking alcohol the next day, he either didn’t have concussion, was not told to avoid alcohol, or ignored the advice if he was told to abstain from alcohol.

I think Moore is more of a Chardonnay type of bloke.

The Dees say they're not guilty based on Adrian Anderson's three reasons:

1) When Pickett elected to bump, not likely to cause injury

2) Pickett contesting ball and reasonable to contest in that way

3) High contact couldn't reasonably be foreseen with Moore dropping to knees


"Kysaiah Pickett's evidence will come via the form of a statement. This means he will be unable to be questioned under oath about Christian Petracca's future."

 

We are using the same biomechanist that gave evidence in the Maynard case

Must have been hard for the club to concentrate on this case given #5

Adrian better not be handling Trac’s affairs too, or we are screwed.

Anderson’s approach to challenging tribunal decisions always feel like a filibuster to me

At this point I swear he’s an undercover agent for the MRO.

Sally Flynn (AFL): Pickett runs past the ball and has made the election to bump rather than attempting to take possession of the ball.”

Flynn (AFL): Pickett would've or should've known Moore would lower himself to pick up the ball.”

Both these statements are clearly disproven by the footage. Will we bother to argue the case at all?

I really hope these are summations because if he actually called it a bump as part of his defense he's already lost.

That doesn’t make sense. He didn’t run past the ball and Moore doesn’t lower himself, he slides in illegally 

 

Bumping is not illegal in AFL. Yet. 
Bumping the head is. He’s within his rights to try and bump Moore side on in an effort to win the ball. We see this happen dozens of times a game. 
What we don’t see is a player dropping like a sack of [censored] for no apparent reason.

I think the issue though is the AFL seem to have clearly mandated "If you elect to bump, you're responsible for the damage".

Yep, which is why we are stuffed

  • 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.
