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

No, I only saw it live

Thanks. I was there, too, but missed it.

Anyone else?

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 

Edited by dees189227

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.

Bugger but Turner now gets his chance

Turner not automatic selection IMV SHIZZENHUISEN in 2 practice games!

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
