Maynard, Pickett, Christian and justice and fairness.


Monbon

Recommended Posts

Just came across some YOUTUBE Maynard 'Highlights', my favorite being the Suns Match earlier this year where he received a shove in the chest and 'fell' holding his head. 

Um, what this piece of E Coli Excrement gets away with match, match out, is unbelievable, and always sanctioned by the Mister Christian himself. 

In the meantime, Pickett runs into an E Coli Wobbler who has dived at his feet and, hey presto, that's 3 weeks.

I hate the AFL more every day. And everything it stands for, including the leeches and cockroaches known as the Footy Media.

Very creative of you to fit all those terms into one sentence.

IF, big IF, the AFL did believe in any concept of fairness, they could never allow Michael Christian to adjudicate anything involving Collingwood, ever.  He is so clearly biased, or maybe just plain dumb, or both. 
Only a disgraceful organization would allow this to continue.

I agree that Pickett was somewhat unlucky.  But the constant obsession over Maynard by the MFC fan-base is particularly embarrassing and cringeworthy, and I’m not even a fan of him.

Get over it. What Pickett did was stupid given his record. He was always going to get 3 weeks.

And in the minds of many Demonlanders, Maynard is the sole reason we finished 14th.

So we are meant to forgive Maynard for putting one of our best out of that  final  game (both increasing the chance of a loss) and of the game permanently.  In what way is it cringworthy?

I would have thought any decent C'wood supporter would be doing the cringing. (But a lot of them cheer him.)

As for us finishing 14th - there were a lot of things that caused that. But losing Gus sure didn't help. Pity it wasn't enough to get C'wood into the finals.

Sorry, man, it is not an 'obsession' over Maynard, it is simply stating a fact that there is one rule for Collingwood players, another for the rest of the competition.

How's Maynard's form going after Kozzie.

The hypocrisy.

I don't reckon that was a three week punishment despite Kozzies record. It was about three weeks as much as Maynard s was a footy act.

Kozzie needs to reign his aggression in but first and foremost let's gets some damned consistentency going in the punishment department.

It's an absolute joke.

The bloke from Port gets a massive term but Maynard last year walks away totally free while Eddy from Cwood dances and sings about justice and Gus has to hang up the boots.

Maynards not the reason we finished 14 th. Not many would agree with you there. He certainly was a part of the reason we didn't win that final last year .( But Laurie as sub was on Goody).

I do find it very strange and bias that last year after Maynard walked away free that the Afl only started to get tough on players.

It's hard to not be cynical and wonder why he escaped retribution and subsequent offenders didn't.

Hard not to feel justice wasn't achieved...politics isn't in play and that last year's premiers not only scraped through every final ( including the grand) but it's so called tough guy got a free pass.

Tbh I think Maynard walking after knocking Gus out and retiring him while KP gets three weeks for his act absolutely STINKS.

And yes the Afl has cracked down since Gus went down and credit for that but it really does highlight how Maynard getting zippo was so very wrong. 

I find it a real blight upon the game if I'm honest.

And while it's difficult to separate one's self from ones bias and passion it's not hard to see that him getting NO suspension at all is just wrong.

Our legal system outside the Afl has something called precedent. 

If the Afl operate under this method with Maynard as the case measure.....it's pretty much a free pass for everyone outside of head butting umpires again.

Unless they played for Cwood at one time

Jeepers, Monbon - why don't you tell us what you REALLY feel?

 

But I agree with every word you said. He is a total t..d and watching those "highlights" makes me remember why I hate Collingwood.

It's nice to have a Sunday off from the topic.

I agree. I mean everyone else has to miss the next match when they get concussion and I bet Moore doesn't! Where's the justice.

It really does beggar belief that the conflict of interest the MRO has when dealing with collingwood players isn't talked about more. No one would expect me to be unbiased reviewing Melbourne players. He played 132 games and in the 1990 flag!!!

 

Ditto chairman of the tribunal Jeff gleeson who is also a collingwood supporter and I believe an ex coterie member? Not 100% on that

Where’s the video of him shirking the issue during actual play, there’s plenty of them

Not so tough then

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die!
