If it's true what May said to Melksham then that's an absolute cheap shot and a half. Probably one of the worst things you could say to a bloke that's just missed out on a flag. Can't be saying [censored] like that regardless who it is. I mean, what did you expect in return when Melksham was an undefeated amateur boxer back in the day.

Think you'll find that Steven May's way of dealing with grief is to turn to the grog. His last indiscretion was because of a relationship break down with his ex who'd moved down from the Gold Coast with him.

Was just speaking to someone who's well connected down there. Steven May's cousin, who he was close with passed away only last week which has completely shocked his family. This probably explains why he was on the drink.

Yeah fair point.

This guys sums it up best.

I think we need to wait on some facts first before we start pointing the finer or false praising people. As we know know both boys were drinking and have had a disagreement over a light-hearted moment. I don't think that light hearted moment was Melksham telling May to stop drinking..

And there's the difference in culture. Thank god for ours.

Oh FFS... This is incredibly dumb by Steven May. If he knew about the protocols of not drinking while under the concussion rule then its stupid by him. Watch Mason Cox kick 5 now.

No.

Even our own players are giving us a clip..

He still attends games but he's nearly unrecognisable now days. Has lost a ton of weight and doesn't do the Mohawk anymore.

I always thought Adam Hunter from West Coast was one of the best versatile players I've seen in terms of being able to be a great lockdown defender, but then could swing forward and kick 3 or 4 goals in a game when needed. I reckon Petty has the potential to emulate this as his strengths is his reading of the play and strong contested marking. He showed some really positive glimpse back in 2019, but I also think he's needed more down back then he is forward.

Another good performance yesterday in their 37 point win against the Calder Cannons 19 disposals 6 tackles 4 inside 50's and kicked a point.

Wonder whether they'll give BB one last shot with the bye coming up to give the coaching staff a better time to assess some options moving into the 2nd half of the year.

Interesting comments by Goody.. maybe it's not as simple as Brown out for Weideman? Seems like Weideman has been given things to work. These comments were especially after seeing his VFL performance. I highlighted some key points that stood out the most for me. https://www.afl.com.au/news/774791/-he-ll-be-sorely-missed-foot-injury-fears-for-big-demon Ben Brown struggled through his third-straight match goalless but Goodwin is backing the premiership hero to return to his best. In a bold move, Melbourne preferred to recall veteran utility Mitch Brown over promising tall forward Sam Weideman when McDonald was ruled out. "I don't think anyone's guaranteed a run in the AFL, everyone earns their position," Goodwin said. "There's no doubt it's competitive with our key forwards for spots. "Ben's not at his best at the moment but he's a very good player. Our challenge as a coaching group is to get him back into form. "(Weideman's) got to keep working hard on his game, continually be working on playing a big man's type of footy. "He'll have a good look at opportunities throughout the year but at the moment Mitch Brown is just playing better."

Don't apologise. All those points you shared were fair and reasonable. In fact I think there has actually been some reasonable comments on here. No one has gotten personal towards the demon army nor bad mouthed them in general. I attended the North game and while it was a horrible crowd in terms of numbers their own supporters were way louder then us. They were certainly loud towards some of the questionable decisions going against them but it actually turned the atmosphere from dour to entertaining. I was gobsmacked because here I am all these years taking the absolute [censored] out of their supporters for not attending games but yet turns we're just as worse.

My first thought also when I heard this..

Yes correct, which if selection was up to me then its Hunt that has to be dropped for Hibberd.

Hibberd is listed as 186cm tall. Both Hunt and Brayshaw are actually taller then Hibberd.

But this is what I said a few weeks. The umpiring has really turned people off from the game. AFL has turned this into a [censored] show. I think the covid excuse has worn off now. So unless the AFL does something to change the umpiring of the game then unfortunately it's only going to get worse.

We kicked 2.6 in the 2nd half after kicking 7.1 in the first half...

Great. He was close to BOG last week when I watched him play.

I'm still trying work out what on earth was he thinking there.. It just summed up our night as a while.

If this [censored] gets your gripe then sound advice would be to shut your account down and don't bother writing on here. Because there is currently for worse comments written on here and the changes thread compared to what I just wrote. I'll tell you was worse on and it was your Demon Army for barely making any noise once again tonight.
