Moore deserved punishment for the knee BUT they also cleared Hugh Jackson for his knee on Zorko, so they're at least being a little consistent here. Both deserved punishment however.

Absolutely both should have been SUSPENDED

    “That's dangerous ... we've got to call out the behaviour."

    Garry Lyon says Brody Mihocek is "lucky" to cop a fine, rather than a ban.

    COLLINGWOOD forward Brody Mihocek has been fined for his dangerous push on Richmond gun Nick Vlastuin on Sunday.

    Mihocek gave away a free kick after pushing Vlastuin into two oncoming players during the second quarter of the Magpies' 36-point win at the MCG.

    The Match Review Officer charged Mihocek with rough conduct, grading the incident as careless conduct, low impact and body contact.

    Mihocek can accept a $1500 fine with an early plea.

    THE FAVOURITISM TOWARDS THE PIES IS AMAZING

    THE AFL SAID TO STAMP THIS OUT

    BUT THE MRO MICHAEL CHRISTIAN IGNORES THAT AND SUPPORTS HIS PIES HERITAGE

    Maybe Christian once again threatened to resign - sadly he didn’t.

    Surely it is well past time to review the appointment - his bias towards his club is once again bleeding obvious. The AFL would confirm rumours of corruption if he is not replaced.

    So these mugs are still fining players who are potentially guilty of an offence that is going to cause the permanent disabling of another player. And it has become the norm.

    Only Pies player suspended is Houston. Expect next year his loading from previous Port suspensions will magically disappear.

    So what is the actual point of the appeals board?

    Seems like a crock of 💩 to me.

    I find the fact that held his job literally insane.

    Imagine have a disagreement at work about your role, then leaking to the press that you’re going to resign if they overrule you, and being able to keep your job with no ramifications?

    It’s unbelievably spineless.

    Pearce off, May not off.

    Clueless does not begin to describe the current system.

    The egg shortage is preventing me from hurling eggs at AFL house.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
