@Grapeviney and I were right behind Melksham during the warm up and he missed every single set shot for goal of the 6 or 7 that I saw. It was just one of those days for him. He just didn't have his kicking boots on. Normally he is an excellent shot for goal.

Easy for a Tigers supporter to say. Just saying.

When my kids were born I used to use Neeld's speech before the Essendon game flogging to lull them to sleep. Worked every time.

I think Charlie might successfully argue that he was attempting to protect the umpire from the melee.

Anyone else having PTSD flashbacks when seeing vision of Neeld?

When is the tribunal sitting?

Imagine if he played for a good team.

Having seen the footage of both I think Ed will get a week and Charlie will get a fine. Charlie could plead he was moving the umpire out of the way of the scuffle and get a fine for the no contact rule.

He's on 22 votes.

Interested to hear @Drunkn167's thoughts on this.

Lucky it's a urine test and not a needle to withdraw the blood. Otherwise .... Superman in Hospital.mp4

You would think so.

This thread is not about what you think it's about. Clayton didn't need to go wee wee after the game to take his blood test so he had to remain at the ground until he needed to go and hence he missed the bus to the airport and in turn the plane ride home. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/more-news/catch-up-on-the-10-weird-and-wonderful-moments-you-missed-during-a-massive-round-8/news-story/7e00730f79d86810a3a93ca7bd78d016 Following his 29-disposal and 11 tackle game against Gold Coast on Saturday night, Oliver was required to take a drug test after the match. The only problem was, he didn’t need to go to the bathroom. As his teammates left the stadium and headed to the airport, Oliver was stuck at the Gabba waiting to pee. By the time he could complete the test, his fellow Demons were already in the air and he had missed the last flight home.

I wonder where Joel Smith is on the pecking order.

It's actually the forum software that changes the C and the : into an amusing ?

The Casey Demons snared their first big scalp for the season when they ended the Box Hill Hawks’ unbeaten run at Casey Fields on Sunday. The 39 point victory was a great come back after back to back defeats and sees them placed in the VFL top eight after six rounds. All eyes were on Demon co-captain Jack Viney who was making his comeback after being blighted with foot injuries beginning in the latter stages of 2017, resulting in a long rehab period that stretched into the first third of this year. Viney was in the thick of things with an early touch that led to a Jay Kennedy Harris goal and was solid throughout, albeit on limited game time of about 70% in his first outing. The home side took most of the first term to size up the opposition and drew away to an eight point lead at the first break with an after the siren goal from Angus Scott who was at the end of a fine pass from Jeff Garlett. The second quarter was something of an arm wrestle with the Hawks proving a difficult opponent to shake off until about midway through the third with Tom Bugg and Tim Smith adding some brilliance up forward, capitalising on some classy work from Billy Stretch who was having a day out in the perfect conditions. He was ably assisted by speedy redhead Oskar Baker who is improving with every run. The fine weather and excellent condition of the ground despite the rains of recent days made for a high standard game. Despite constant attention from his Box Hill opponents Viney demonstrated his toughness and quality and if comes up feeling cherry ripe after the game, it’s unlikely that he will be seen playing at this level very often again, if at all. Garlett was also full of class while Stretch and T Smith put their hands up for a recall but, given Melbourne’s recent form, will have to bide their time. Cam Pedersen was, as usual, a tower of strength. The game was a good showcase of the club’s depth both at AFL and VFL level with skipper Jack Hutchins’ return imminent along with a few others unlucky to miss out this week. Corey Wagner was the best of the VFL players and would have relished playing alongside brother Josh who was also handy in defence. The Demons’ dominance continued throughout the final term after a period with the defence led by Joel Smith and Declan Keilty asserting their authority and the final margin of 39 points marred by some inaccuracy in front of goal, really didn’t do justice to their effort around the ground on the day. It was a welcome victory however, after a few weeks in the doldrums with consecutive losses and the break for the bye. The Demons are looking forward to their encounter at SkyBus Stadium, Frankston against the reformed Dolphins who are enjoying their return to the competition with two wins to date.
