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.

Hmmm!

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.

Was that Hawk player reported for tripping Kozzie. lol….!!!

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.

He's seemingly got away with it (again)

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.


Merritt???

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

Brownlow Medalist decided....hmm

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.

Afl allegedly won’t be commenting on it

The club should

someone should be sent to a gulag in Siberia for that

Apparently there’s a matrix for some clubs and not others

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 !!

HQ chosen finalists all good. Other teams beware - except Carlton of course.

And given a three week suspension for staging.

No it's not. It is deliberately inconsistent.

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!

wasn’t anywhere near a suspendible offence

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

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
