Of course, the AFL loves fines from melees, they should have fined Margetts $1500 as well, his ineptitude started it.
Carlisle hit Ballantyne on the ground. Ballantyne had been gut punched a bit earlier in exactly the same kind of gut punch that earned him 2 weeks (?) when he hit Bartel a few years back

Seriously? Bloody hell, I don't see how that's 3 weeks worse than Selwood dropping an elbow into the back of someone's head while they're lying on the ground.
If that's the mood they're in this week Bugg is looking at 12 weeks.
I haven't seen the replay of it today but from memory it was a bit reckless and could understand a week but 3 is ridiculous.

Now I understand the early call on Hughes having the ability to play like Fyfe. If he plays consistently at that level we have a serious player.
And that contested marking by Cox. Finally we have a tall whose marking we can actually depend on.
Fit Bennell, Shill, Blakely, Langdon, Apearce, that other kid who got inj last week(?), and Balic (if he stays) into that lineup and playing like this first year into a rebuild with some more games under belts, and we are looking good for the next few years.

Hughes had a massive game and I wonder if he would of played if Connor wasn't under club suspension
Probably not. Blakely took one for the team - good man.
I have finally made sense out of the reversed 50!!!
So Suban gets eye gouged, falls...50 metres. Grey saw it and comes and knocks Webster over....reverses it.
FFS. I would have defended Suban too from that type of crap act! Well done Grey

Defend is fine, but do it sensibly and don't give away certain goals.I have finally made sense out of the reversed 50!!!

I think what Grey did was perfectly okay now that I have seen the video
He is a top clubman, but geez its frustrating to give away that chance. Obviously this season it doesn't really matter but you don't want that pattern in your team when you hit finals. Discipline is important.I think what Grey did was perfectly okay now that I have seen the video

I'd still rather win the game.

It's great he wanted to stick up for a team mate...but that was probably the worst moment to do it.
Would've had plenty of other opportunities to even it up later on without costing us a goal.
And actually hurt the campaigner properly.

You're aware the reason the club pays football players is so they can win football games?
We're not part of the dick measuring league.
Dallas wasn't happy about it either. Went off his trolley at Grey.
Know what you mean, but surely let Ballas kick the goal first, then get stuck in and try and draw another free kick!I have finally made sense out of the reversed 50!!!

Ideally yes
I reckon he definitely wouldn't have played. Wasn't even in the 25, then we needed to find a replacement for the role Blakely played against Geelong in the backline.
As for Grey, he shouldn't have done it, but it was just a shove to the chest. Happens all the time in melees and is never paid. If the umpire reversed it for that, he should have then pinged the Saints player who grabbed Grey and flung him to the ground, which was far more of an infringement than what Grey did.
