AFL 2025

Crows v Collingwood Thursday night 4th September

Geelong v Brisbane Friday night 5th September

Do the Crows play all three anticipated emergencies on Sunday and risk a four day break if there are any late pull outs*?

Are you suggesting they won’t “play to the line”

Anyone picked up that pretty much all the players who have been suspended for homophobic slurs are indigenous or African. I think even Jack Graham has some indigenous heritage.
Just found it interesting, now that racial vilification has pretty much stopped on field, its the guys that were effected by that, that are now doing the vilification.
If i remember rightly, any racial vilification cases were mediated behind closed doors? Some we never heard about. It was raised by players who were offended by the racial abuse. Im not sure that the players targeted by the homophobic slurs are offended by the abuse or are simply seeing it as a chance to rub out an opposition player?
Does anyone remember how it was handled, it may even still be handled in that way?
I wonder if mediation behind closed doors is an option in these homophobic slur cases? I really do fear for what will happen in the crowd with Crows playing Pies so near to the previous encounter. This time there will be alot more Pies fans, might even be close to 50/50. It will be feral
