how do you have sufficient time to slow down when you were a split second and/or a bounce away from winning the ball?

    Maynard 0 weeks. May 3 weeks. The AFL states that Maynard bumped Brayshaw. The AFL concedes that May did not bump the Carlton player. Honestly, WTAF.

    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.

    Thats completely irrelevant for me, it's not about games missed I honestly couldn't care at all. It's about the principle, what the AFL is turning the game into and the fact we are always made an example of while other clubs get away with stuff scot free. It's completely [censored], the club has to appeal this even if he will miss 3 weeks with concussion anyway.

    How TF did Pearce get off? He could see the guy coming at him. May had no time.

    That gets 3 weeks and Maynard got off. [censored]. And don't @ me about the [censored] supposed rule change at the end of that year. [censored]'s sake.

    Maynard shoved Murphy Reid into the bench this week. Nothing. Moore drops his knees into an opponent's back this week. Nothing.

    Sums it up. A Collingwood player can intentional try to cause harm to an opponent with non football related actions that would be deemed assault off field... not even cited.

    Player from another team accidentally collided with an opponent as part of a football contest where he tried to avoid harming the opponent... Three weeks suspension.

    The game is ruined. The joy of watching and supporting is gone. We've now got endless rule changes that can't even be officiated consistently and blatant corruption to deal with.

    I'm done.

    Collingwood were illegitimate premiers in 2023. If they win again this year, they will be illegitimate again. People on here can call me a whinger, I don't give a [censored]. This isn't a sport anymore - it's a fixed spectacle. It's basically WWE sports entertainment level production.

    I reckon the fact that we are not in contention for finals may have factored in as well.

    Does anyone know who was on the tribunal? They should be named and shamed.

    Saw this question in Zitas twitter thread, which I found interesting.

    How can the charge be "upheld" when the case was sent directly to the Tribunal and not graded by the MRO?

    I feel sorry for May. He could've actually tried to clean Evans up and it's wouldn't be far far worse. Instead he did the right thing and elected not to bump at all and still copped a three week suspension.

    Poor bastard.

    Hopefully he snaps Moores spine with a rogue knee at some point.

    We know what this is really about.

    The AFL is being sued for $1billion by former players.

    They are trying to show they are doing everything to stop concussion and in the process destroying the game.

    Appeal and win.

    Just call it the Collingwood Football League at this point.

    Steve probably had a greater chance of being elected supreme leader of North Korea then walking out of there with no suspension.

    So they concede it wasn’t a bump. If that’s the new precedent, why didn’t TDK also get 3 weeks for putting his knee in the wrong spot??

    Carlton lawyer would be all over that and win May a brownlow as a result.

    Pity, we have AA.

    I did some research and assumed Adrian Anderson was successful in JVR’s appeal against the Suns in 2023.

    Nope. He was unsuccessful at the original tribunal case. Another lawyer got him off at the appeals hearing.

    The bloke’s a complete failure. And we’re a complete failure for continuing to appoint him.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.
