POSTGAME: Rd 1 vs Port Adelaide
The loss of Lewis was greater today with the new runner rules. We were all over the shop today and didn’t appear structured at all. Hopefully May will bring both quality and leadership next week.

Liam Jones only gets a fine. How stiff is Steven May?
Agree entirely. Not so long ago the player expected contact and braced/positioned so that it didn’t cause harm. Now players are diving in head first, leading with the head and, in Mays instance, running blind in there surroundings. I want football actions (bumps, tackles etc. ) to be treated differently to non-football actions (jumper punches, open hand punches, punches to guts, eye gouging etc. ). Perhaps with double penalties for non football actions. May’s hit on both Berry and Martin were football actions (bump) and caused by the players not bracing/expecting impact. The world is changing to place where it’s everybody else’s responsibility for you!!!

Steven May Suspended for 1 Match
Must be an afl tribunal where ‘it’s the vibe’ argument carries weight.

If there is no risk to the Geelong game in rd 2 then we have to appeal. Stupid act....but not worthy of a week. 20 years ago berry would have braced and got back up. They (the afl) want free flowing footy from yester year, with that, i would like the bump back from yester year (albeit legal hard hits not to the head)

POST MATCH DISCUSSION: Melbourne vs Richmond - JLT 01
Saw in the game day thread that someone called him BP. So along the villain moniker it lead to Mario’s nemesis: Brayden Pruess > BP > Fuel Bowser > Bowser

Post Practice Match Discussion - Melbourne v Collingwood
The risk of having both ruckman is the affect on the bench and having midfield rotations. We have a strong solid midfield group now but are they fit enough to make up a player that they would have had previously in the rotations? I like the idea of Pruess and Gawn together, but don’t think they will play 100% TOG. Does the benefit of a tall fwd line out way the lost rotation?

AFL lookalikes
- Farewell Jesse Hogan
Have we received a response to this? If so, surely Lewis can flick some emails around for the players to sacrifice the salary cap required to keep Hogan and get May- Farewell Dean Kent
I think he has the body for contested footy and imagine saints see us as the best midfield for that. They won’t have to pay a lot to get him and any knowledge he has to help them develop- Umpires this week
No surprises that Nichols misses the GF.....he is a stain. Matt Stevic, Shaun Ryan and Brett Rosebury are set to be unveiled on Tuesday morning as the official whistleblowers for Saturday’s blockbuster between West Coast and Collingwood at the MCG. - Farewell Jesse Hogan
