    Re: 2014 AFL - Round 18 Discussion

    Just as a side, currently at the Plough Hotel post VFL game. Caught last 5 mins of port v Melb.
    Jay Schulz iced match winner from the boundary, making it 52 goals 15 for the season for him.

    Handy forward who just doesn't miss. Richmond lost patience with him as a 23yo... In context with just watching Liam Jones towel up the scum, I think I've just had an epiphany!: Stay patient with U/25 forwards with talent. Some do repay you..

      My 12 year old daughter managed to tip all five matches this weekend! Possibly the only person in Melbourne to do so?

      Just shows she knows nothing about football...

        Has there been an inquiry into Stkilda beating freo?
        Staggering result
        I know it's only the Dees, but sometimes you just need a win to get going again.
        Wouldn't surprise to see port emerge again.

          If that's how Cox' career ends, I'd be livid for him and all of WCE. Dog act by Vickery.

              Possible 5 week suspension. Think 1970's full wind up, round arm closed fist punch which knocked Cox out and I'm guessing broke his jaw. Subbed out instantly. Not completely dissimilar to Hall's big suspension, but a different technique. He'd get jail if he did it at a nightclub, but sport is different apparently.

                  That is awful . Dog act from a crap player.
                  Shocking way for such a champion to exit.

                        Yep, what an absolute bastard (and I don't ever use such an old school slur lightly - it is actually one of the words in our language that still has meaning).

                        Terrible finish to a stellar career.

                        I've played enough footy to know that sort of act isn't done unintentionally. In the moment you always know, whether it's not tucking in an elbow or swinging a fist at head height you always know.

                          Best thing is Richmond supporters will be up and about all summer.
                          Top 4 certainty next season, and then the rage of underachieving

                            I really want them to finish ninth again.
                            They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                              They really don't finish 9th that often.

                                Prior to the ruck set up didn't Cox throw his elbow back and catch Vickery in the throat region?

                                Granted Vickery response was probably not warranted, but to me Vickery was just letting Cox know he wasn't going to be pushed around.

                                I am not condoning what Vickery did, but I do believe he was retaliating. I wouldn't mind betting that will be in his defence.
