Looks like Michael is smarter than Dillon, Gillon and Laura combined.

Selwood is a protected species. What he did to Taylor Dureay 2 months ago was a dog act, he got charged and got off? There was another incident in the same game, charged got off. This one is potentially worse because it wasn’t just a cheap shot but a full ‘line up’. Charged again, got off...

Do you even understand the game? This was NOT an accident. The head clash was, but when someone has properly disposed of the footy they are an ‘open book’ and very vulnerable, only a coward bumps then. Now go and understand what concussion does long term to our players? The bump is not dead but...

Gerard Whately has just said it starts at 3 weeks and could go higher if needed. Gerard is a friend of Danger and goes silly talking about Geelong but still says 3 weeks plus.

Hall was a malicious act, Gaff was a mistake, he no way wanted to do what happened.He showed genuine remorse. Yet gaff got many many weeks.

The idea is you bump them before they get the footy. Not just after they disposed of it. It is too easy to hurt another player that way, it is weak and gutless when they are so open.

Definitely not a hanging offence but the game must protect that ball user.

OK. Danger choose to bump a player who just disposed the footy. That is easy and weak to do. He will and should get at least three weeks. If a bulldog player did the same I’d expect the same. Sometimes we defend our team and players beyond reason, I do it often, this is one such time for you...

This is one of the most blatant unrealistic one eyed post I’ve ever read.

The bump is fine for those that have the footy and you don’t hit the head. In Dangerfield’s case, he failed both those tests. Kelly had just disposed of the footy(when players are most vulnerable and must be protected) and he hit his head. If a veteran Crow had knocked out young Atkins when he...

It was a missed free kick. There are many in game. But the Talia’s was a deliberate act of cheating by an aggrieved player and wasn’t investigated because no one would have liked the outcome (betting and finals series had progressed) Pushed under the rug. And no so-called ‘cheif football...

Robbo’s really going hard on this issue. But there is a massive conflict of interest with him and anything to do with Essendon. He didn’t go nearly as hard over the Talia brothers incident which really was probably 10x worse in bringing the game into disrepute and cheating with the betting...

I wasn’t talking ‘common sense’ just the letter of the law. Funny that’s how Robbo argued it, and in that argument he was factually wrong.

That argument would last a nano second in a court of law. Every single act a human does is ‘intentional’ one way or another. The wording is to ‘intentionally shake the post’ which he didn’t do. Sure it shook, and I would have paid the free against him, but he did NOT INTENTIONALLY shake the...

To the absolute letter of the law it’s not actually a free kick. He didn’t ‘intentionally’ shake the post. But he’s a peanut and if the umpire had ‘feel for the game’ it was a free kick. Most of the arguments are the wrong way around, eg Robbo and Gil.

SEN are full of AFL sycophants. They’ll just keep trying to change the rules. Now David no idea King wants to change some more. This didn’t just start last year. Third man up was changed a few years back, it was fine, it cleared congestion and then the no sliding crap seemed to start this...

Power corrupts. I’ve always liked Gerard Whateley, he has earned and been given one of the best platforms in the game (the morning shift on SEN). I enjoy it. I think it’s bigger than ‘chief football writer’ of the Herald-Sun now as people don’t buy the paper as much. But in this position Gerard...

I thought the same thing when I heard Dangerfield talk to another member of the ‘Geelong mafia’ Gerard Whateley the other day. Danger said that he wanted the game like 2005! When Judd was busting packs. Geelong have way too much representation in these two new rules committees.
