What They Are Saying At Princes Park
Yes thatâs what I said and what I saw. Hard tough tackling has been stopped because of uncertainty with the MRO and Tribunal. Will Schofield last night said the Cerra and Laird decisions were laughable and players didnât know what would be acceptable in tackling. Drew Jones agreed with him.

Hawks racism allegations (merged thread)
On 360 they said that the North President put out a statement saying Clarkson had been cleared and that it was the right decision, as she had seen all the documents. Whatâs that about? Really? Also said that two of the complainants âZac and Amyâ werenât indigenous Australians. What does that mean? Is there a suggestion of bad treatment to non indigenous players or partners? Itâs all very confusing.

I donât think it is in any way an exoneration. It is just simply that no adverse findings are made, because only one side has presented any form of statement and the party paying the bills for the panel have forced this outcome. No allegations have been properly tested and the Investigation has been stopped and brought to a crashing end, as another âdealâ by the AFL.

Well in a defamation suit, while I am not an expert, I thought damages to a large degree centre around lost income. I donât think given his contract, he could demonstrate much lost earnings. I donât think pain and suffering is a big component in Australia, but maybe I am wrong on that.

AFL Mid-Season Draft 2023
Presumably they think he might have gone by our msd pick and they see a future for him. We havenât really seen much as he has been injured. Would you say the same about Verrall?

CASEY: Rd 10 vs Werribee
2 of those could be gone next year and another pre season and weights etc, could see him add some more muscle, which will help his development.

PREGAME: Rd 12 vs Carlton
I am 71, have loved the game and especially the MFC, since I was about 5 and I am now at the stage, where I only want to go to games, to be with my kids and grandkids. I detest what I see happening to the game, which is run imo purely for money. People are ripped off at every turn by the AFL. AFL members are forced to pay $10.00 on top of membership for a seat at the G, for many games, instead of just being allowed to walk up. The fixturing is completely unfair and of its own, makes the whole competition a compromised sport. The umpiring is inconsistent. The MRO and Tribunal are a joke. The media because of accreditation are sycophants, too scared to report honestly. Everything is a deal, or fixed by a deal. Players now are unsure how to play the game and as an example, against Freo, I watched Melbourne players actually hesitate before going for the ball or tackling. Games being played on school nights, so families are denied the ability of attending. Blasting music so loud you canât talk to people next to you. Excessive Politicising of the game. My love of the game has been severely diminished by its administrators, who couldn't run a BBQ without giving everyone food poisoning. I detest the direction of the game, that these people have taken it in and I am not referring to efforts to make it safer. Yes they have improved the viewing facilities, with some new grounds and refurbishments, but they have imo achieved little else. At least I have my memories of hard, tough,skillful footy, umpired reasonably, with penalties at Tribunals that were pretty consistent and people loving the game and actually living for it.

PREGAME: Rd 12 vs Carlton
As a lawyer, if I do any more criminal matters, my clients will be dressed in Carlton jumpers, because then you clearly canât be guilty. Seriously, I said in another post that this guy simply makes it up. Pin arms, donât pin arms, injury, no injury, hit head, donât hit head, sling, donât sling, drive into ground, donât drive into ground, duty of care, no duty of care, possibility of injury, reasonable player, no reasonable player, aggressive action, not aggressive action and tonightâs new reason, long hair of the victim makes it look worse than it is. How can you not ridicule this system and the people running it.
