Slightly different as Chandler takes him part side on and slams him into the turf. Curtis is completely from behind. Very hard for Curtis to change anything when the player immediately falls to his knees propelling them both forward.

But I think that works in Chins favour. He lets him go and doesn’t drive him into the ground. Whereas Curtis technique didn’t allow for him to take any mitigating action so I’d argue he is more liable.

    Favouritism. Clearly.

    I do wonder if Maynard hadn't come along and bulged his forehead vein and created a drama, would it have been 3 weeks?

    The theatre is the thing.

    That Kozzie bump result was a disgrace Both players shaped to bump and Moore drops to his knees in the last second.

    I f*ing hate Collingwood

    Crow’s full back reported for light kick to Finlayson.

    No injury.

    Crows play the Pies next week.

    I get your conspiracy theory but he won’t get suspended for that.

    A silly match day report from the umpire considering they seldom make them anymore.

    It is a reportable offence. I’d be gobsmacked if he wasn’t T least fined for it.

    Marshall and Hewitt both fined in Friday night’s game for tripping. The former for “attempting to trip”. I’m heading to AFL House if the Hawk’s player isn’t at least fined.

    The AFL would admit that the umpire missed the call, if he gets a tripping report. The AFL would rather make 2 bad decisions, than admit an error and accept accountability.

    They are too busy telling us how good the umpiring is.

    No way Hardwick gets any sanction - he plays for one of the chosen 5 teams this year - the others being Gold Coast, Essendon, Collingwood and Geelong. Brisbane the other team that will finish top 6 but most likely won't need umpires assistance.

    At the moment, we are the Be Sharps after Barney goes all John and Yoko.

    Thanks, and what else could I have expected? Duty of care covers accidents for certain players.

    There was nothing in the Merrett incident if you have a proper look at it.

    Regarding the Pickett unpaid blatant trip, the only surprise is that he wasn't penalised for kicking in danger.

    The old saying "you should have been more careful" doesn't apply here, to prospective B Medalist.

    Hardwick tripping??? Had to be fined $5000 for a deliberate trip. AFL must come clean. It was an umpiring mistake. Ok we have to accept the wrong decision. Note Marshall got a fine for attempting to trip. MRO is confusing !!

    Further evidence of corruption in my opinion. Read the MFC injury report on Xavier Lindsay post Brisbane game and weigh that up with the MRO’s ‘nothing to see here’. Watch the replay of the incident and you will note that the ball was a metre above where the swinging arm made contact with Lindsay’s head/neck!

    Maybe not DubDee but should have been cited and a financial penalty, what if he has a late onset of concussion??

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?
