Toast Round 24 = Melbourne 57-103 Collingwood

[Apex36]

It was made during the lightning break when they were scratching around for things to talk about. (Moore had been subbed with concussion by then)

No it wasn’t, that was broadcast earlier look at the time of the tweet that’s been posted. It was during half time.

 

[NMBB]

I disagree.

The panel of 4 who unanimously thought there was nothing in it included Buckley, and you can’t reasonably say he has a dislike of Collingwood.

IMO it was more driven by a yearning for the good ol’ days when they all played. And the game was more physical. And MRO sanction guidelines weren’t written by lawyers trying to mitigate risks of litigation.

Pretty sure Lewis and Hodge don't like Cwood - Buckley may reached same conclusion for different reasons. Pretty sure I saw a raised elbow in that footage.

BTW - how refreshing to see a poster say "I disagree" then set out their reasons instead of launching into a psychotic diatribe

Cheers 76 spooner

 

[76woodenspooners]

They all thought Moore was fine and not concussed, nothing more. No conspiracies, no yearning for the days of yore.

If they’d known Moore wouldn’t come back on after half time and was in protocols they’d have assessed differently.

Nup. They all made their assessments knowing Moore was concussed.

Sure, that’s what they said then.

But they also had a wider discussion about it during the lightning break (and after knowing Moore was concussed) and they all mentioned that Kosi should get off.

Melbourne FC is such a rabble, obviously had one eye on mad Monday.

Pathetic football club

Decent win to close out a disappointing season. Very pleasing to see some of the new kids have really good games and show plenty of promise for next year.

 

[JuniorB]

That’s slightly different then. Whether it’s a blind spot in their knowledge or not, I’d hope someone behind the scenes could take a couple of minutes to look at the grading guidelines.

It's just bias.

 

[CaptainHowdy87]

So there's no acknowledgement of the potentially dangerous act of Moore taking out Pickett's legs due to his deliberate decision to go to ground at the last moment and slide into the ball? It would be entirely reasonable to think that a player would keep their feet and not take the legs out from under an opponent in that situation, the sliding rule is in place to cut out that exact type of action from players after all. If Pickett comes out of that contact with a bad ankle injury or an ACL and is out an extended period does that change anything?

I know we've got blinkers on this one for obvious reasons, but I don't think it's as cut and dried as most on here would think after having watched it again multiple times - Moore definitely contributed to the contact significantly in a way Pickett couldn't have anticipated or most likely avoided in the time he had to do so when it looked like a regular bit of body contact in the process of pushing the ball towards the boundary line coming in.

Where the MRO / tribunal end up on this is anybody's guess, but I wouldn't be surprised if Pickett does get off.

Imagine if this was our score at half time last night

Imagine the afl ever gifting us a soft game last up like Geelong get at home regularly

 

[delta_magpie]

its a suspension even if Darcy wasnt concussed..elects to bump and goes past the football and makes head high contact. he even tucks his arm in to brace for impact.

Agree to an extent. Footy is played at a frenetic pace. Doubting he wanted to knock him in the head.
Reportable? Yes within the rules.

They gifted us the Dees. Just how soft do you want a game to be?

Yeh, but it was an away game

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Very pleased with how we finished the season. Obviously disappointing we're not playing finals, but I still remain upbeat about 2025. A longer off-season to physically and mentally recharge will do us a world of good and hopefully with a more favourable draw we can experience a rebound.

The youngsters were the highlight of the night. Nice to see Parker and Allan kick their first career goals. Good to see the coach sing the praises of Allan in the post match presser. His form in the last month of the VFL has been excellent and he showed his worth in this game. He might have a promising future as an inside mid.

Bizarre set of circumstances with the game being disrupted, but at least it didn't derail our momentum. Another positive of the night was no injuries were sustained.

Here's to a successful 2025.

 

[cfc19902010]

Hodge is just a flat out idiot

Hodge is a complete joke . After enduring his nonsense in grand final 23 coverage he’s even plunged to lower depths this year actively barracking against us .These guys can’t control their old playing biases so you get this garbage coming through on commentary

Reiwoldt and Richo not much better
Bt is also all over the shop and goes off on strange tangents although obviously he doesn’t hate us
Oh for the good old days of professional football commentators that called the game and didn’t let petty bias ruin their calls

 

[cfc19902010]

They gifted us the Dees. Just how soft do you want a game to be?

True

But west coast would have been nicer

Pies played top 8 teams more than any team

 

[Seattle Mariners]

I’m in absolute disbelief that Collingwood didn’t make finals this year. You guys are far too good a team to be on the sidelines in September.

Make no mistake you’re better than Brisbane, Carlton, Port, Geelong and Bulldogs.

Hopefully Melbourne only play you guys once next year as we quite frankly have no idea how to beat Collingwood.

Ignore those stupid May comments last year. He was pissed off red wine and he deep down knows Collingwood are better than Melbourne. Most Melbourne supporters know that Collingwood are better than Melbourne.

Watch where Pickett finishes - he wasn't making contact to turn back to the ball or whatever they were suggesting on the footy panel last night. He elected to bump and got him high.

Bucks always gets these wrong. And Lewis has recently started focussing on what the concussed player has done to contribute to the incident, which might be more relevant for tackles, but not when you go past the ball and elect to bump a player playing the ball. Pickett is gone.

I'm most disappointed in Lyon's lacklustre response. He always goes hard at players who make contact with the head. And we all know why.

Not surprising he didn't go as hard at this one. Said he was being the devil's advocate but just continued to made excuses

Think of all those nuffies who haven't gotten over Maynard not being suspended. They've now been trolled by the commentators and think Pickett will get off. They're going to lose their shit. It's great.

Even the nuffies complaining about players being suspended based on the outcome & not the action.

That's been the case all year if a player is concussed via a tackle or a bump.

And even if it was based only on the action, he'd still be suspended via the MRO gradings because it was high contact.

He gets the extra week or 2 due to the outcome being concussion.

And then they still bring up Maynard. It was a smother. If they read the findings they'd understand why he got off. Not to mention the AFL have since changed the rules regarding smothers.
