Folks weren't happy this didn't show up in the MRO report





But, maybe the MRO got this one right

UPDATE: Blues take Cripps ban to Tribunal, Eagles follow suit

Carlton will challenge Patrick Cripps' two-game ban at the Tribunal

Just take the 2 weeks you idiot it is clear as day you lined him up and got it wrong.

AFL media really angered me with this.

Defend this guy, but throw Stewart under the Bus????

His feet left the ground, he knocked out the guy cold, but because the media want him available brownlow night Robbo says he should get off.

Leigh Matthews loses sleep over the Ginivan tackle but ticks this off.

Media is an absolute discrace, he should be relieved he only got 2, take his medicaine and move on.

I still don’t rate Josh Kennedy (Syd) in the same way most others do. He’s not up there with Pendlebury and Selwood as Sydney fans like to believe. He’ll be quickly forgotten by most people I think

Nah sorry. He was the reason Sydney were a chance of beating both the dogs and the umps in 2016. Should've won the Norm Smith imo. Got no attention from the media because of living up north. Selwood and Pendles are better, but not leagues apart from JK.

I don’t disagree but if Selwood captains a flag this year I could genuinely see him becoming legend status in the hall of fame before I die assuming I live another 50 years to 75. When Bickley can be in the hall of fame from only two accolades, the bar is very low

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

I don't think it's possible for Geelong and Collingwood to go undefeated and meet in the QF

They won’t.
Collingwood will drop 1 before the finals.
And if they do, we will play them week 1

Correct outcome. He barely even touched him. Merrett threw his head back like he’d been shot.

 

[00VicWard001]

Won’t be long before we find out.
I’ve got us playing Collingwood week 1.

Cannot wait. I bet the boys cannot wait either. The team is not like us supporters, fickle and worried.

The team would be feeling very very confident in their method and their personnel.

The Pies have done well to persevere and to have heart and never give up. That's an amazing trait and has really propelled them this season.

The Cats have done even better by doing something even more difficult. Winning convincingly against all-comers (barring Richmond), with their top tier players constantly unavailable and therefore never having a unsettled best 22. That to me shows that the method is the key and they are backing that in and knowing that every player is doing their role.

He reminds me more of a Jobe Watson type.

Silence is death to the media so they have to talk about something + they follow each others’ lead like daggy sheep. They are indeed disgraceful but will never change because the vast majority of the viewing public are clueless bunnies. The end.

Look good luck to him - he has had an excellent career - seems like a really nice bloke to

However im a Geelong supporter - and my favourite bit of play with Josh Kennedy was when he was still wearing a Hawthorn jumper

And Geel had another great - come from behind win against Haw ( in that 11 game streak ) it was the game where Andrew Mackie played Full Back in the last qtr against Lance Franklin and did a very good job

And Kennedy and Franklin had the ball about 40-50 metres out from goal - and it looked a certain HAW goal - but they botched it - and Franklin was tackled sensationally and got done for holding the ball - a goal and game saving tackle

Thus as a Geel supporter - that is my favourite Josh Kennedy moment

Remember when he tore the Cats a new arse hole in round 6 2018?

 

[DangerHere]

Great to see it’s all about Collingwood

Carlton fans are just a little bitter this week with Cripps reported & currently at the tribunal fighting a 2 week suspension

How’s their Salary Cap ?

 

[David the Cat]

Carlton have a history of not really worrying about salary caps and the like.....

Correct decision

Zerret lucky not to get fined for staging imo!

 

[BlakeyNoFlakey]

I'm thinking all those idiots who bet on Cripps to win the Brownlow are smarting tonight.
