    Hopefully we get more than 2 marks out of this three-tall combo this week under the roof

    Guess so, it wasn't mentioned on the telecast as an issue, and they normally jump pn those to create drama and commentary

    I thought he'd be ok seeing as the giants player was OK.

    I mean Greene knees someone & gets a fine.

    Poor guy, his 1st game and he gets suspended

    Nobody seemed to make much noise about this during the game!? And they do love to drag us during commentary, so pretty rough outcome. 

    Wonder if there’s a stat for a goal and suspension on debut.

    What about the giants player that elected to bump and got Tom McDonald high with his hip. The impact was high enough to rule the giants player out of the game. So if they are adjudicating it on action that technically should also have been a suspension.

    Watching on TV, I remember it happening and definitely thought it was crude.

    Not surprised he was cited

    Point by point -

    Careless Conduct, Medium Impact, High Contact

    Correct, harsh, and debatable.

     

    Not pleased but I feel like AJ is going to need a week off anyway after the amount of bodywork he did in his first game.

    He'll be back fresh and ready to contribute against the plethora of talls at Gold Coast.

     

    Edit: And Brown should also be copping a fine for simulation. That was embarrassing for football.

    He's a Melbourne player. Lucky he didn't get 4 weeks.

    Wasn't much in it and yep I'm sure he'll come back firing.

    He's getting the full experience. Must really feel as if he's arrived!

    Strawbs O'Dwyer recounted on The Front Bar that he was suspended in his first game then again in his return game!

    Absolute joke

    I agree 

    There wasn't much in it but the Giants player accentuated the contact to make it look worse

    There was not much contact with the head and the ground either

    This was always going to be a suspension whether we like it or not. Arms pinned, driven down. He maybe gets off if he can show he didn’t pin Brown’s right hand but the way the Tribunal works with dangerous tackles, I doubt it.

    Yeah thought this would happen as soon as I saw it. Pinned the arms and drove the opposition players head into the ground, if I remember correctly. Gotta love the aggression though.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • 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.
