So, Buddy fined instead of suspended.
God bless AFL.
Heads are important except when they're not.

The leader of the bunch.
Any Crows success, big or small, is seen as a direct threat to them.
Their supporters act accordingly.

Lachlan Jones for Port Power is out for 4 weeks with another hammy.
Can see this becoming a theme throughout his career.

Dang! I was hoping he’d play in the showdown to give us a bit of an advantage.
Surely they’d have to bring in someone worse?

Who built Hawthorn's list 2005-2007? Did they even have list managers then?

Proble. Is they made a clear present with 3 other cases by assessing them low impact and careless
All 4 incidents should have been 1 week suspensions
AFL needs to change the grading to reckless for all players who decide to swing the elbows back

Nah, nothing wrong with only careless and intentional, but intentional needs to be a mandatory 1 week, even if it's low impact and to the body.
If you intentionally elbow, punch, or whatever someone that's not allowed in the rules, it's a week min.
If you bump (still allowed in the rules I'm told) and get them high, it's careless, not intentional.
It boggles the mind that Franklin gets off with a fine and yet we had a week long and 4 hour tribunal for the Mackay incident.
Absolutely ******* laughable.
Absolutely ******* laughable.
Precedent set now for the whole league.
If you are being tackled and it goes on longer than you like (= scragging & melee according to his lawyers), elbow to the head is appropriate as long as you don't break anything and the player is able to play on without developing concussion symptoms.
Buddy actually was holding the ball is his left hand and swapped it over to his right hand so he could load up the elbow for the strike. If he had hit him while still holding the ball, would have been way less obvious what his intentions were. What a joke.

I still can't get passed Mackay being hung out to dry, accused of being a liar by the AFL lawyers, experts saying he should get 3 weeks, for a football collision between two players going for the ball.
And Franklin whose hit there had nothing to do with football, gets off 100%.
Its just dumb.

Geelong imo. I thought they would be hurt by the return to normal length quarters, I was wrong.
However I am biased, can't stand the Bullflogs.

If Geelong can get both Dunkley and Treloar fit I think they might have to much depth in their midfield
Midfield depth and quality goes a long way to winning flags and they run deep with a fit Dunkley and Treloar back

Heads are absolutely sacrosanct and must be protected at all times.
Unless it is a star involved. Then we kind of skirt around the issue and hope for the best.
I assume David King has really gone hard on this one?
I literally have not seen a single person complain about this on the Port board.
Bergman has been good and will hopefully get one before the end of the year on body of work if nothing else but he didn't deserve it this week.

A strong mid field is awesome to have and I agree that the two players you mention will add to the doggies depth. The doggies are more exciting as a potential premier but the cat's are settled and solid on every line. September is going to be great even without us. Just think, no Collingwood, no Richmond, no Hawthorn. It's a pretty open year really.
