No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club news

They were both well after Sicily. What is more interesting is that Christian didn't want to put it up and the AFL stepped in.

Chrisso was overruled.

 

[eldorado]

I know that - but the jungle drums are beating now. Only way he plays is on appeal now

If they were to find him guilty of that, this game is ****ed to a level even worse than I imagined after the Sicily farce.


I simply don't like the AFL or the game anymore. I actually forgot last nights game was on, and only turned it on in the last after a friend texted me.

I have a pathological tribal allegiance to Hawthorn which compels me to watch for 2 hours every week, and then commune with my Hawthorn brethren during the week.

Apart from that, the AFL can gofuk themselves

100% with you. It’s a collision sport and you can’t police 100% of head injuries out of it and you’re just going to make things worse trying to.

As someone who feels he hasn’t a case to answer - that charge sheet says he’s very much spannered. No chance he plays again this season.

I was also in the No case to answer camp but the longer the day went and you hear the reasoning, I start to waiver

Chrisso was overruled.

Whately called that
Said there was absolutely no way it could be called “no case to answer”

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Chrisso was overruled.

As he should be tbh. Is a former Collingwood player.

 

[grumbleguts]

Van Rooyen gets 1 week for a deliberate elbow to the head, Sicily gets 3 weeks for a legitimate tackle that earnt a free kick.

Maynard straight to the tribunal (severity)

had done enough to keep his spot

It doesn't happen very often...... go $wines

 

[Hodgey 15]

AFL is going backwards fast.
Players will be wearing bibs before too long.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

I don't mind Maynard getting cited as to my eyes he did two things wrong.

Firstly he jumped at the player kicking the ball, not just vertically straight up.

Second he turned his shoulder at the point of impact to maximise the damage to Brayshaw.

A badly executed, reckless spoil that resulted in a free kick against him.

Totally different from Sicily who executed a perfect tackle and won a free kick.

You have two options when a player is running at you. You can either tackle them or try to smother the ball of the boot.

You can't jump at them and clean them up on your way down. I've never seen anyone attempt something like that apart from Maynard last night.

Did Richo just say he’s going for Melbourne

No

 

[MasterSamurai]

One of the rare occasions in my life where I go ' GO SWANS'! hate Carlolton.

 

[hardway]

Did Richo just say he’s going for Melbourne

Sure did! The game is in good hands.

 

[Buzz Hawk]

Sing the anthem you campaigner Cripps.

 

[lethalselbow]

Go Swans.

Think blues will win

 

[Buzz Hawk]

Le Blues my tip tonight.

Take out the trash on Friday night. Stupid campaigners.

 

[BobHawk]

Very early in the game but the Blues look sharp. I don't rate the Swans but I didn't rate them last year either.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Brisbane: We struggle a bit at the MCG!

Sydney: Hold our prosecco!

 

[Off The Couch]

I always enjoy watching a good smashing of the swans, so wash my mouth out, but go blues

 

[Bugs1977]

Love Gulden. Easily one of my favourite non-Hawthorn players.

 

[RoughysMullet]

Gulden’s unreal- such a pressure kick there…

Swans done well to slow Carlton down and get it back on their terms…
