  Essendon’s Mark Baguley sledged Carlton’s Jed Lamb on Saturday about his father, who was murdered when Lamb was six years of age.

That sledge ignited the melee between the two at three-quarter-time, which saw Lamb receive a $1500 fine from the MRO for striking his Essendon opponent.

The Herald Sun believe Lamb notified Carlton officials about Baguley’s insensitive sledge, and told the club he repeatedly told Baguley not to speak about his father.

Baguley has reported told Essendon club officials he wasn’t aware of Lamb’s father’s passing, and tried to apologise at three quarter time.

“I’m aware of an issue from Saturday’s game,” Carlton CEO Cain Little told the Herald Sun on Tuesday.

Lamb is one of eight children, and spoke to the Herald Sun about his father’s passing at length at the impact it had on his life when he was first drafted

Marking, attempting to Mark or spoil the football;

Went to a sportsman's night a few years back now where a very famous CFC personality - club legend in fact - was speaking. Not all present were Blues supporters. Someone asked him about Sheedy and his response was somewhat colourful - no love lost there at all. In fact one of his favourite memories of his time in the game was dumping Sheedy on his a-rse. 

Sounds like Robert Walls. Those two have never got on.

The Sheedy virus... making death threats to WCE players when the bumber's player was taken out in the marking contest by a team mate.

Look up  flog in the Dictionary and there's a picture of hum.  Ignore him, he's irrelevant.

Kruddler was on about this earlier in the season and I've come around to agreeing with him.

Jones and Rowe were the right combination for Essendon.
Weitering only plays in the backline if the match-up is a better option.
 
The problem is Weitering is too good a player to be playing VFL.
He doesn't play the Rowe role...it has to be the Jones one.
While Jones performs we have to find another role for Weitering...rotation off the bench for Jones, wing....or as Barbs suggests maybe the Plowman one.

Eventually both Jones and Rowe will be gone and that's when Weitering steps in... but it might be a few years down the track.
The other option is Weitering becomes a "gold plated" trade option

Let's not forget Weitering has struggled at senior level this year.

Was on about it before Round 1. Its taken until Round 8 for people to start to agree with me.
