That's what I couldn't understand either. If you illegally block a player on the mark then it it should awarded against the infringing side. Another one in the last quarter cloke and Hooker running side by side for ball in collingwoods 50 mt zone, cloke puts hand squarely in Cale's back grabs his ju...

Why worry what the press write, it is the evidence presented in court (if it goes to court ) that counts not what some journo writes for sensationalism to sell newspapers. There is a lot of hysteria about Indians in the press at the moment...get over it or go home. India is one of the most racist co...

Courtney Johns is a good example, he had the perfect body for AFL, pity he was handicapped by his hip injury.
Could have been a star,,,if only things went right for him.

Going to miss the fans roar 'LLoydy Lloydy" when he lines up for goal. Congratulations on a great career Matthew. Oh and one for Cambell Brown Whoreforn take note of a champions career as listed by Windy Hill's post, you will never achieve what Matthew Lloyd has given to Essendon fans, this clu...

Judd....guilty as found, take him away.

Windy I'm with you, Slattery to go forward and McVeigh back pocket where he has played his best football over the years.

For those knocking Jay's fitness, have you forgotten he had an operation to repair a severe stress fracture at the end of last season in his foot/ankle. This resulted in him not having a preseason training regime. Now that his ankle/foot has repaired he will no doubt make better use of his preseason...

Bateman and Hodge are both snipers in the true Hawthorn tradition.
Dipper
Brereton
Matthews
Clarkson
Wallace

F111 was spot on Lloydy new excactly what had to be done at that point of time by staying focused, the game was not over with yet. Get players back in defence to defend our goals, that is leadership. When the siren goes then you celebrate. Further more what an exciting team we have developing at Ess...

Why don't the clubs demand explenations from the MRP about their decision making process, it is clearly flawed. Why wasn't Hodge sighted for striking Sammy and why was Bateman only given 1 week if you look at the intent after the strike to Matty's head. Clearly intentional. It's time the clubs took ...

Does anyone think that the Hawks will know their season is over and try to suck our young players into fights, re line in the sand game, just prove a point.
If so our players must control their aggression at the ball if the want to play finals the following week.

I may be wrong but, the appeal will only be taken seriously on the grounds that Hawthorn can produce new evidence and not go over original evidence as previously presented or dispute the ruling based on evidence previously presented.

Leroy Jetta... I don't think his heart is in it at Essendon. Maybe he is homesick. For those that remember when drafted to Essendon he wasn't too impressed, and asked by the media his first thoughts...not much enthusiasm. I believe he really would prefer to be playing for West Coast of Freo in his h...

Fletch will play against Fremantle.

When this team puts 4 quarters together in one game and follows our game plan, we will be unbeatable. Our style of football is far superior to St Kilda's, look at the second and third quarters, they had no idea how to defend against us and could hardly manage to score. The only down side is perhaps ...

Why Care??? Because we are better than Carlton (flogged twice this year ) Defeated Collingwood (Anzac Day ) Draw against Brisbane last week. and almost got there against StKilda in first half of the season. Geelong is on a downer in form. In 1993 we were only making up the numbers with the original ...

"Confidence" is the key to winning. If you don't have it, why even bother to try to beat St Kilda?
The players must feel they have a 50/50 chance to win. Upsets happen all the time in AFL football.

The old saying...A winner never quits and a quiter never wins.

Hirdy, just keeping in touch with the players for when he returns as coach......lol

Why hasn't Atkinson played more senior games this year, based on the form of some of our older more experienced players coming back to early from injury? Next week out McViegh in Andy Lovett, unless you play McViegh in back pocket on Milne. out Hocking in Bellchambers. Paddy is just too tired to ruc...

Wouldn't stand up in court, if wasn't found on him personally. The police would have to prove in court that he owned the 1 and only tablet. If others live in the house the degree of doubtful ownership he cannot be convicted. Maybe the police will fingerprint the tablet, like the broken egg shells th...
