Eagles just kicked two goals in the last 40 seconds of the 3rd quarter. 4th quarter might be a decent one.

Sucks we lost, but it was closer than I was expecting, and Im happy Nic Nat looked in good touch.

That Parker goal was ridiculous.

Was expecting Sydney to win today, but our boys put up a decent fight given the relative inexperience versus the Swans. Nice to see Nic Nat back jumping around and bumping the poo poo out of people.

I reckon we'll hold our own against anyone not in the top 4, but going up against teams like Sydney and Adelaide we just don't have the engine room to cope.

Hoping to sneak into the 8 again this year, but really won't be surprised if we don't play finals.

They're basing their appeal on an angle that proves glancing contact to the head?

My guess is their appeal will be that he was going for the ball rather than choosing to bump, I doubt they’d try to argue insufficient force.

I think the best argument I saw was someone saying Zerret is at fault for not training his brain to not get concussed

He’ll be working the Victorian conspiracy angle. They’ll have all angles covered. Just like the video showing head high contact

I think their argument will be that the bump was below the shoulder and therefore legitimate, and that the concussion happened from incidental high contact from the trailing hand after the bump, which would be a free kick but not a report

Actually the best part about this weekend is knowing that the racist piece of poo poo Adelaide supporter (one I had to sit next to at last year’s game, racially abusing my cousin’s gf and eventually getting himself arrested - by far the worst person I’ve ever encountered at the footy) has now endured a GF loss and a first round loss to us in back to back games.

He never actually hit his head with the bump though? Every single replay shows the bump only ever hit the armpit and shoulder, the only part that hit his head was the trailing hand

Which loving replay are you watching? You can clearly see the point of his shoulder hit the top of Merrett's head before their torsos collide. As far as I am aware the rule says that if you go for a bump it is your responsibility to not hit the other player's head, which he has clearly hosed up here.

1 week for that is pretty soft tbh. Unless the Essendon medical report came back saying Merrett leaving the field was purely precautionary it should have been 2 weeks plus a 10% Victorian conspiracy loading on any subsequent offenses.

The replay linked above, which demonstrably shows the contact was entirely shoulder to shoulder, and at no point did his shoulder impact Merrett's head. It's pretty clear cut.
