How incredibly embarrassing for the Bombres to go out like this. Same number of wins as the opposition and getting utterly dismantled. Just pathetic. Will desevedly get slaughtered by Collingwood next week as well.
Nearly every time I watch this team play I find myself thinking there really is a lot to work with here. Certainly some missing pieces and needs polish (a lot some weeks) but there is a lot here.
When I looked across the team selected on Thursday night, I remember thinking that it actually looks like a decent team. Much better than 17th on the ladder. Very happy with what I've seen tonight. Very, very happy.
Yup, Danger clearly made the decision to bump, so he's liable for the head clash. Careless, high contact are certain. The only way for him to play Easter Monday is if they grade it medium which they clearly will not. If they go high impact it's 2 weeks. There is no discount available.
Geelong lose to the wooden spooners, we beat the scum by a point after being 39 down at half time, and Danger is almost certainly out of the Easter Monday game. Couldn't really ask for anything more.
Also - footy just generally seems an order of magnitude more watchable this year so far.
I will say firstly as a supporter that I find this behaviour abhorrent and disgusting and as a fan I'd rather not see him in our club's colours again, and I won't be cheering for him if I do.
Now with that out of the way, if I'm looking at it as an issue of an employee facing potential...
I mean - those early fines were largely suspended as I recall. You also can't just compare the size of the fines in isolation (har har) given that they are only one component of the punishment on this occasion. What price do you put on a 10 game suspension?
This, it puts the entire season at risk. There have been a few cases around QLD lately - if these two leave the bubble, get themselves infected, re-enter the bubble, play a match... disaster.

What a shitty piece of news. And a shitty way to do an ACL - with a couple of minutes to go in a match that is already lost. And the timing - 12 months from now the 2021 H&A season will be nearly over, means he'll do well to play before 2022. What a horrible year and...
This is the time you want to be playing Collingwood. They might get an extra couple of days break but we're already going to be up in NSW for our match this weekend. I'll take it.
