Why isn't afl.com reporting this?

They are, McKenna referred directly to the tribunal.

Zaine offered a week for striking Hooker.

If Zaine had struck Hooker then Hooker would still be out cold. They must be thinking of somebody else.

Geez some of the shit that gets off and our blokes are missing weeks for things no one even saw. Does anyone know what the incident was?

If it was the sneaky one i caught of during play as the camera panned away then it looked like Cordy was just testing the core strength of Hooker's abs with a friendly jab.....

"Cordy was charged with striking Hooker in the first quarter of the Bulldogs' victory at Etihad Stadium on Sunday, with his action assessed as intentional low impact to the head."

Maybe it was a little lower than the abs? I'm pretty sure that's where Hookers head is.

I watched the McKenna incident. Didn't look like bugger all just giving him some tongue and cheek in the ear. Didn't look like a bite to me... Has Dickson got a bite mark?

Dickson is the one that complained, so I assume so.

I read a report today that he complained immediately after, and yes, there was a mark.

Just watching the replay and Dunkley has come of age , strength and Mark wise, he will make a very good forward.
Bigger than he looks.

Is there a bit of Jimmy Edmond about him to you ledge? Big kid, strong overhead, shithouse kick but somehow seems to manage to steer 3/4s of his shots on goal through, often comes up with a goal just when we need one just like Jock used to do too.

Hooker is just a disgraceful cheat. Got a tap in the chest, dropped as if he'd been hit by a 303, bounced up like a Jack-in-the -Box and immediately started laying into Zaine really aggressively. I don't think Zaine hit him in the head - sternum maybe. It was off the ball. But really, ffs, I've seen blokes deliver half a dozen jumper punches and .... nothing!!!!

Don't know about anyone else, but I didn't see that much that we're missing out on.

Memo to Bellchambers - we definitely do NOT miss the lazy showboat who only plays on his terms.

Did anyone notice the lack of support for Stringer when he did goal in the last quarter. Subdued high fives from Parish and Myers and nothing from any other player.

Would that give the appearance of a happy and harmonious playing group?
