If it's not a bump there's no case to answer.

If the ball can bounce unpredictably then how is May to predict if he will get to it first or not?

The AFL is a clown show, I'm really growing to hate this sport/competition. Amateur hour all round. Can't wait for the NFL to start again, so much better than the AFL these days.

Yep, losing passion for this sport. Never thought it would happen, but the game is almost ruined.

I know not many like the NRL, but since Covid that sport is next level entertainment on the TV.

    What would happen if May got to the ball first and the exact same collision happened?

    No case to answer clearly.

    “May should have known even if he did t know that Evan’s would get to the ball first”

    AFL tribunal is clutching at straws

    They are, but i have a feeling that the AFL would buck all trends and make a call on this one.

    Exactly, so considering it was a split second between May getting to the ball first or second and considering the predictability of the bounce if the ball how could they possibly argue that May is culpable for the injury to Evans? It's a farce.

    Doubt that very much as May would have taken possession but still cleaned up Evans on the way through so would have been charged I suspect. Now if May was 12 cm shorter the collision’s impact would have been different and Evans would be on trial.

    Here is an interesting fact.

    The tribunal has run 3 hours, to decide if a bloke did the wrong thing in a split second.

    The player has a split second to do something and yet it takes 3 hours of evidence watching the incident from a hundred angles, multiple times and at multiple speeds and then hours of deliberation to decide that he should or shouldn’t have done what he did in a split second.

    This is a f’n joke.

    They have turned the game into a joke.

    I know it’s not the point but he’ll only be genuinely missed for the Dogs game.

    He can’t play St Kilda irrespective of the suspension and lord help Goodwin if we can’t beat West Coast without May.

    What a sad day for footy and for all us footy fans, they are truly corrupt. Just hopeless.

    Okay, well if you're going to ban someone for that enough is enough you need to also ban the knee in the back of the head or spleen or lungs as a result of a speccy...go all in or not at all AFL you bunch of [censored] suckers!

    No problem.

    The experts in the media got it wrong.

    The ex players got it wrong.

    The current players got it wrong.

    The Coaches got it wrong.

    No one knows what the f is going on in the game.

    And it was conceded by the AFL that he didn’t bump.

    • Welcome to Demonland: Steven King

    • 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.
