Kysaiah Pickett on report
The relativity of the two suspensions is what is infuriating. One caused a player to go off, potentially concussed, the other caused no injury. The former gets one week; the latter two. And they wonder why some suggest that there is corruption in the AFL judicial system.

Kysaiah Pickett on report
So no injury is worse than concussion! No injury is high impact: concussion is medium impact Unbelievable Bastards Buddy > Kozzie.

Kysaiah Pickett on report
Of course Frankenstein wonโt get more than one week maximum even though he KOd his opponent. Kozzie will get multiple just because it is a bad look.

McVee & Laurie vs Baker
Not in the least controversial I would say - McVee stood well ahead of Baker and Laurie. He will hold his spot but Laurie is likely to go down to Casey especially if Fritter is ready to go.

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs
I haven't seen any replays of the Kozzie "incident" - sure it was late and maybe reckless but as far as could see at the game no head contact and no adverse outcome to the collidee. So what does that mean in MRO points or whatever raffle they are doing this year? This week? This game? He elected to bump but did no harm? (But nor did Moloney.) Are we going to be the victims of absence of precedent once again?

Not even a slightly twisted ankle?? ๐ค Everything is relative? Will Cats wilt. late in every game? Will Pies keep overrunning fitter sides? Will be interesting to see as the year unfolds.

What deciduous schadenfreude if both Tigers and Blues were to miss the finals by half a game. ๐ค๐ค๐ค

But wasn't Acres the key to a premiership? Just saw the rehash - Lynch marked in a pack of maybe 5 Blues?

Surface looks to be holding OK. Martin isn't used to being pinged for his infamous "don't argue": doesn't look particularly good tonight ... maybe the hangover from being pantsed by Judd McVee.

AFL Concussion Class Action Lodged
I heard it was 11. Just heard Jordan Lewis on AFL 360 who went through his issues following a concussion in 2011 - went back on after a cursory flawed test. Said he felt OK during the following weeks during training, but game day pressure left him feeling like he had had a few drinks, for about a month. He said he would support even 4 weeks mandatory lay off.

PREGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs
This time it isnโt the soft tissue injury issue with Salo, and he has been back running by all accounts so maybe a warm up game or two with Casey then he should be right to go anew. MCDonald is so important structurally up forward (see the debacle of second half of 2022) I would prefer to try Scack back - could switch them if things get bad.
