All too late, but I was surprised that the biomechanical evidence wasn't challenged. 

Sure, once he had left the ground, his trajectory was ballistic, and he couldn't alter it. But actually, the trajectory of his centre of mass was ballistic. He was perfectly able to reconfigure his body around that centre of mass - he chose to go into a bump configuration. He could have done otherwise. 

NRL has eliminated the kicker being flattened like Gus was. 

This is what I find galling about the whole thing.  He got off because no one in that tribunal hearing challenged his numerous lies.  First he said he did not travel forward while in the air, then he admitted he did, but only 1 - 2 metres.  He stated he felt the ball hit his hand, video evidence shows it went past his right elbow and missed it by about 5 inches. He stated he leapt from a standing position on both feet, video shows he was running full pelt and leapt from one foot from his running action.  The most galling is him saying Brayshaw changed direction before he kicked it.  This to me blows his whole "It was an attempted smother" argument - the tribunal accepted he was in the air before Brayshaw kicked the ball.  So if he wasn't expecting him to change direction, it can't be a smother, because he would be expecting the ball to go wide to his left.  It didn't, it went to the right of him.  Ergo, it was a charge, not a smother. 

And they let him get away with it.

What is that stuff??

Morris being Morris.  I take what he says now with a grain of salt.  He's as toxic as Barrett.

The Swans opening offer of 46 and us having Schache as the sub before Grundy was quire pointed

If we somehow get a pick in the 20's we might be liable to pay some of Grundy's salary (as the Pies did)

Not according to Collingwood, who yesterday said their deal was with Grundy, not Melbourne or Sydney.  Collingwood would still be liable.

With both Collingwood and Melbourne wanting pick 25 for Adams and Grundy respectively, I can't see Sydney getting both.  Both Melbourne and Collingwood have told these players that they are required players and a trade would only happen for the right price.  This could be interesting.

Funnily enough, last night when I mentioned this on a Facebook thread some Sydney nufty said the deal could be done if Sydney and Melbourne do a straight swap of pics - 14 and 25 for 12, 27 and Grundy.  I asked him if he though Melbourne would be that stupid to go with that, given they'd be basically giving Grundy away under that scenario.  Strangely enough he hasn't responded.

Too many [censored] supporters.

Can I just respond to Tom Morris - Ha Ha Ha ha……..Ha Ha ha….!!!! Your a real killer Tom.!!!

What kills me about Morris is he is allegedly a Melbourne supporter.  Why he's trying to decimate the club with his crappy reporting I'll never know.

You reckon Maynard practices those types of 'football acts' on Murphy at training?

 

He certainly had a crack at him in the grand final.  If you watch the incident where Murphy was concussed, Maynard collided with him just seconds prior.  Involving his head.

Didn't Pies fans carry on that Melbourne were negligent to let Gus play despite his previous concussion issues?

They didn't seem to mind Murphy playing.

If only they were bright enough to understand what irony is.

They were lead on by that [censored] article by Tom Browne.  Who let's not forget is the son of the Collingwood president.  There is absolutely no evidence, nothing but pure speculation but it hasn't stopped the filth being led by fake news created by a Collingwood lackey in the media who, let's face it, has always been [censored] at his job.

I'm not bitter.  Much.

I can’t seem to locate May’s speech on the website. Was it that profanity laced?

There were a couple of f bombs :)

 How does the misspelling of a player’s name get through?!?! Where’s the proofreader? Inexcusable!

 

 

Maybe they hired the person who did the spellchecks for Collingwood’s banner?

A remarkable human being and one of the best people you could ever hope to have at your club. He brings so much to our club and we should be incredibly proud that he plays for us.

Even if he doesn’t play another game, his contribution next year will be immeasurable. If every young player at our club models themselves on Ben, they’ll be better for it. 

I have sizzle, Benny told me his knee is good and he’s playing next year 

Deakyn Smith won best MFC listed VFL player
