Maynard, Pickett, Christian and justice and fairness.

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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    What Pickett did! Alleluia, is all I can say, he's such a bad mayne....

    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.

    Wish our boys would tackle like that occasionally. Hell even McCreery was doing it to us in the last game. 🙄

    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.

    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

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
