I know its footy and its an extremely tough game (that why i love it) But to throw yourself against a bloke who's reeling around in agony after hurting a shoulder, not once but 3 times SHAMELESS! Bloody suspend them for as long as it takes poor Nick to recover from the suspected surgury he will be having. (and i don't even like st Kilda!!) In all the time i've watched i've never seen unsportsmanly behaviour!!

Bah, it bloody spoilt the first game for me i have to say.
Absolutely spot on Hevs!
Completely ridiculous conduct from Mal Michael.
He then has the cheek to say it was nothing in the post match interview, as Nick Rewholdt sat in tears in the dressing room!

I hope the AFL throw the book at him...!

Both Mal Michael & Chris Scott have went down in my estimation, that was just thuggery. How sore must that have been with a broken shoulder having those two idiots giving a good bump with there shoulders.

Interesting the number of poms who seem to follow a non British origin sport like AFL ping pong?
I take it you are all well known with the rules (or lack of them)?

Whilst I in no way condone their conduct how many of us when playing sunday league football(soccer) have been told to test a guy who was wearing a bandage on their knee or leg by our manager - we all know it happens so y r we surprised when professionals do it - I reiterate that i do not condone what they were doing so no abusive replies needed

I'm well aware of the rules of AFL thanks. I enjoy it as a sport, simple as that. And even though football (soccer) is my first sport, I've got an open mind allowing me to enjoy others too. Unlike some.

I was at the MCG tonight watching the footy & even though my team got thrashed I love it. I Remember the days of going to the soccer in Scotland & watching bottles fly over my head.
Its a pleasure to sit & watch this great game & not worry about the kids or any kind of crowd trouble.
Only thing I had to worry about was Hevs abuse of the umpires. :scared:
