News about Grant Thomas

Another Brownlow Medal, another night of shocking voting results - this time, former players have had enough and are calling for fundamental reform to footy's highest award. Just before Marcus Bontempelli and Nick Daicos (right), Lachie Neale scooped the gong (left) but a slew of ex-players and supporters have blasted the umpires for the result.

Grant Thomas (pictured left) a former St Kilda coach, has argued a wild conspiracy theory as to why the AFL Tribunal cleared Magpies defender Brayden Maynard on Tuesday night. After his smother left Melbourne Demons star Angus Brayshaw allegedly knocked out for two minutes during the Qualifying Final on September 7, the Collingwood enforcer (right) was facing a lengthy suspension.

The 'days of monthly bank fees are over,' the bank claims, after offering customers the opportunity to pay for their services by subscription, but the online reaction has been lukewarm. The latest subscription service, Up High, is being tested by 'interested consumers,' and no price has been revealed, but it will eventually be available to the Up's 7000,000 subscribers. A Reddit user who had declined said, 'I do not want another subscription in my life.'

After the umpiring fiasco that ended the Adelaide Crows' season, former St Kilda coach Grant Thomas (left) launched an unprecedented attack on the AFL and its top brass (CEO Gillon McLachland, right). Some teams are also receiving preferential treatment on the track, according to the ex-Saints boss.

Luke Beveridge has outlived his time with the Western Bulldogs, according to former St Kilda manager Grant Thomas, who announced that he was invited to leave the team last season. Beveridge has been guiding the Bulldogs to their first premiership in 54 years in 2016 and their second Grand Final in 2021 since eight years ago. The Bulldogs signed the 52-year-old to a three-year contract in December last year, a move that has yet to bear fruit as the Dogs have lost their first two games of the season by a margin of 50 points.

Grant Thomas, a former St Kilda coach, has apologised for calling Melbourne captain Max Gawn 'a sook' in the aftermath of the Demons' loss to Brisbane on Friday night. After a seemingly harmless collision with teammate Jack Viney, the 31-year-old limped off the field at the Gabba just minutes into the first half of Melbourne's 11-point loss. Gawn screamed as he staggered outside the park to be assessed in the dressing room, where he sat on the floor with an ice pack tied to his knee.

Coach Damien Hardwick (pictured left) and Collingwood ruckman Mason Cox (pictured right) have taken to Twitter to discuss Tom Lynch's "goal" against Brisbane on Thursday. Both were critical of the AFL's decision to overrule the decision from the AFL's video review panel to overturn the Tigers' snap, which was notably absent in Richmond's season's two-point loss.

Since it was revealed that Tom Lynch not celebrating was involved in Richmond's elimination last loss to the Brisbane Lions on Thursday, AFL pundits and analysts have slammed the video monitoring system.
