[Vikingnz]

Stand up and applaud the dogshotter - no matter how likeable the team are at least the fans will always be campaigners.

Viney and Petracca hahahaha, it's squib time on Thursday night

 

[Ice-Wolf]

Can Melbourne beat Port at AO or Brisbane at the GABBA in a Prelim?

I don't think so. They must get back into this game.

They have to beat Carlton or Sydney at the MCG next week before even worrying about that.

 

[Tandy]

Now we are going to have to hear the Maynard talk all week

Might not even beat Carl or Swans

 

[Chism]

Pies getting massive Umpire love from every 50/50.


Game over Demons sadly as they are giving you nothing.

 

[bertamcberta]

Every single commentator with the most dimwitted view of the Maynard one, saying he couldn't move.

He could you nuffs. He specifically turned his body so his shoulder collected Brayshaw.

That's why it's reportable, even though I think he's stiff if he does get rubbed out.

There’s been some really soft suspensions this year, but I’m guessing he’ll get off.

If there’s any consistency, he shouldn’t as he chose the action and collected high. Football action my arse.

 

[bzparkes]

WTF is Petracca doing?

 

[largebus]

Petracca missing the kick, the dees are barbecued.

 

[amazingjoshy]

Petracca having a shocker so far

 

[afl2004]

Have these demons player ever played together before

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

I guarantee they won't want let a cult figure from the competitions biggest club miss a Grand Final.

They're going to have to.

Otherwise it shows all thier talk about head contact is all bull.

 

[madmug]

You keep repeating this , like it is gospel... This is not the case. He left the ground to attempt to smoother the kick, the down field vision from behind Maynard shows this. He then lands on Brayshaw who is running towards him after he had made the ball his intention. Will be interesting to see how this is graded

Yes, Brayshaw 2 weeks for charging Maynard,

 

[nicka94]

Melbourne forgot to bring the grippo

 

[Cringle]

Melbourne not willing to put their bodies in the firing line.

Far too often the hands are out trying to tap the ball without copping the hit.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

The brace for contact argument doesn't hold for me. Maynard could have put his arms out to create a buffer.

He chose to turn the body

That you can guarantee the Tribunal would argue.

 

[hawkman]

Takes a good team to remain unbeaten against Collingwood this year

It is all bull. It's to appease the lawyers.

 

[snozulu]

Maynard should never play again.

The hair style should be enough reason

 

[beerbandit]

Sidebottom is giving Langdon a lesson on that wing

 

[Hoops]

shouldn't even be a free kick

if he gets rubbed out for that the afl can * off

If you don't think that is a free kick the your opinion counts for naught. He got him flush high FFS

 

[Ice-Wolf]

At a certain point Melbourne will start preserving themselves for next week if they don't get back into this soon.

 

[Wosh]

Too easy for the Pies

 

[keithrichards]

Have the Dees got a free kick yet? One way traffic from the umpires so far.

8-7

Dude, they let star players off all the time for s**t other players have to go to the tribunal, then appeal to get off.
