Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2023

[BettercallSaul]

Hamish, Hamish, Hamish, different love for different brothers.

Obviously Andy has outpointed him in too many backyard games.

Changed his tune from 2018.

The difference is he has no connection to Collingwood so nothing to lose. He wasn’t game to say anything re Gaff as he was desperate to stay on a AFL list with WC. Selective outrage.

I remember how strong Gus was in his disdain for Gaff. Literally said he should be in prison.

Yep. Angus was furious. Hamish……not so much.

Watch Maynard get off this
Collingwood /Carlton Grand Final would be a VAFL wet dream

 

[freodog]

If only Angus & Maynard played golf together this would all be resolved

Bit of a rough spot for him though. Was a contracted West Coast player, not much he could've done.

 

[Okinakashi]

Here's the question. If Maynard was in an identical situation- playing a scratch match against his Collingwood team mates - would he drop the shoulder and clean them up?

I think we all know the answer.

He should get weeks - but this is the VaFL.

That's Sandover Medallist Hamish Brayshaw

 

[One_Wing]

Anyone else think this situtation is playing out similar to the gaff-brayshaw incident. Like obviously the incident isn't the same but its full of weird PR stunts that backfire.

Could have not said anything.
I can wait to hear from the old man, he was very supportive of gaff.

Brayshaw family's stunning call over punch

'It's a pretty intense place at the moment'

[Dockeroo]

first few minutes of this from Caro is absolute fire

I lost it (laughter) at “the flowers didn’t make it into a vase”
Sorry I know it’s a serious issue but still.
I thought David Mundy summed this situation up best the other day on the radio. Trust him to be a champion bloke and not parrot the same crap as cornes and hodge and all the other ex pros.

 

[mayne iac]

Well come on, what did he say??

 

[Taylor]

Well come on, what did he say??

Something along the lines of 'If Pendlebury was under his as he was falling he doesn't think he tucks up to protect himself at the expense of the other guy'

Which is fair enough.

How is the form of Michael Christian? Decided that Maynard had no case to answer (gee, what a surprise), and now is threatening to quit over the incident being referred to the tribunal. Demanded his name be left out of the press release on the decision. Call his bluff and tell him to pack his bags.

What a joke. A real man doesn't 'threaten' to quit. That is so lame. Either quit or STFU.

His job will be taken by an AI shortly anyway, it's built to compare incidents and match outcomes to known examples.

 

[Purpletown]

But the AFL would not like AI to give the tribunal the tools to make consistent outcomes. They prefer the smoke and mirrors method to come up with whatever result suits their agenda.

They'll just irrationally change the rules to keep it guessing.

As funny as it sounds it would not surprise me one bit if that becomes a reality very soon

 

[Big Animal]

I think it's hard to disagree with Mundy. And he's played basically more AFL than just about anyone else and in the 'modern era'.

No way that shoulder is being buried into the kicker's head if he's wearing the prison bars (except maybe Ginnivan).

 

[BStaff17]

Just say if this was last year against Collingwood in the semi final and Andy got knocked out the way Angus did in the first 5 mins by manyard.

We will be wanting blood let's be honest.

I agree if it was round 3 he gets 2 weeks and everyone moves on.

Because it's finals we hear the argument this player doesn't deserve to miss a final or GF over something like this.

If he is found guilty Collingwood will take it to the appeals tribunal. And will drag on for another week I would say.

Both clubs KCs will be working over time already with their appeals.
Maynard, with the intervention nof the newly appointed head of football, will be lucky if his penalty is only two weeks.
Martins two will stand, until the KC brings in a legal technicality, then like another previous Carlton player, he will get off.

I don't understand what you are saying here.
