NON-MFC: Round 02
The older players like Pendles, Sidebottom and Howe are struggling and it is costing them. I still think a few of them won't see out the season.

Welcome to Demonland: Caleb Windsor
This kid's hands inside are elite. We have a very good one here. Can't wait to see Tholstrup in the big time as well.

The Rise and Fall of VFL Park
I have not so fond memories of nearly breaking my hand there. When Bucky got the 15 metre penalty against Jimmy and kicked truly after the siren in the 87 PF, I ran back and smashed what I thought was a tin pipe with my fist. Trouble was it was solid concrete.

If we really want him, I would get in his ear.

PREGAME: Rd 02 vs Hawthorn
Yes assessing force is ok. 1 week for the kick and then add weeks for the degree of force, but to fine for a deliberate kick is pathetic. We used to suspend for attempted striking, no force of impact if you miss, but it was an illegal act. PS: Travis Boak said it was a bad look and struggled to defend the Tribunal decision. He said if it happened to a team mate he would be furious. Congrats on the 350 games Trav you are a great AFL player.

PREGAME: Rd 02 vs Hawthorn
It wasn’t zero force, it was a light kick, but it was a deliberate kick to an opponent’s leg. That is not footy. I can kick a footy 1 metre or 40 metres and both are kicks. You don’t kick people in footy and you don’t send a good message by condoning it. Interestingly nearly all ex players in the media said it was a suspension.

2024 MRO & Tribunal
Most of the ex players in the media agree. To them kicking is a suspension, end of story. It was a kick not a tap. Just pathetic really. Now kids will think it’s ok to kick another player, as long as it’s not too hard a kick.

I think the Lions and Pies may be a bit shell shocked and hopefully that hurts their confidence and creates doubt in their game. Lions should never have lost to an undermanned and then injury hit Dockers. Pies would have lost by a lot more, with normal goal kicking accuracy by Swans and some very soft frees to the Pies for goals.

I don't. Not only did he upend a guy, which we know can be dangerous, but when the guy hit the ground, he actually kicked him, not heavily, but nevertheless a kick. That is a big no no. That is not getting off. 1 week is pretty good I would have thought. PS: Just re watched it several times. It's not a tap, its a kick and he deserves 1 week for that at least.

Is Nick Daicos going to be fined for staging, it was blatant? No of course, not the golden boy.

Happy for JJ, I thought he was a bit hard done by with us.

Pendles making lots of mistakes and slow. Sidebottom too and Crisp doesn’t look the same.

Mansell, played on from a mark 2 metres out and missed. Moronic bit of play.

NON-MFC: Round 01
Yep. Get the umpires to give you everything, have your opponent down 3 players for most of the game, off a 5 day break and have an opposition player play on from a set shot 2 metres out and miss. That’s the way to win.

NON-MFC: Round 01
Why, they have been consistent, all frees to Carlton. Absolutely pathetic umpiring.

PREGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs
Well he could have gone into the ruck and beaten Grundy. He could have gone down the other end and flattened the Lizard. He could have gone into the middle and run with Heeney. He could also have told Max to jump early with knees up to stop Grundy wrestling. He could also have organized the oranges for 3/4 time. You see there is a lot more he could have done. Seriously though, he is really stiff, as I thought he was one of our better players and would end up on Lobb this week.
