    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.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
