Trengove suspended for 2 ... now 3 weeks

Featured Replies

I honestly don't agree with you Thomo. That said, we'll wait til tonight. Tribunal convenes at 5pm I believe, not sure if Jack is up first.

Trengove puts nearly an identical tackle on Brodie Smith ...all but seconds later.. Because Smith didnt duck his head so much theres a differing result.. Somehow hes at fault the first time and not the second ?? Intention ...exactly the same on both acccounts.

This is all cow manure...fair dinkum !!

It will be interesting to see if that is the argument that Melbourne go with, that Dangerfield caused or contributed to the way in which he hit the ground, so Trengove was not negligent.

Watching the replay, I can see a three-part thing with it.

1) Trengove couldn't have known that the ball was released by Dangerfield. His head was in Dangerfield's back, and while he could have *possibly* glimpsed the pill as he went around, I doubt that he did.

2) Part of the issue is that Dangerfield has gone to kick the ball as Trengove has tackled him, so as Trenners has dragged him around, he has done so with Dangerfield on one foot. This is what has generated the force.

3) He's not actually holding his arm in along the lines of the Byron tackle. Rather, Trenners has actually grabbed Dangerfield's right arm with his right hand.

I reckon the negligent part is gone for sure. The rest I'm not sure of, hard because Dangerfield was concussed.

It isn't required, if it isn't negligent, it's accidental, therefore no case to answer.

 

I can't believe I am actually following a live text-based coverage of the tribunal

no I'm not obsessed with football at all

Yeah, I'm the one that asked the question, deciding whether to start dinner now or to wait...

 

this truly is our Kennedy Assassination moment! (and seriously, 'line in the sand' for the future of the game!)


Comment From Sam Sam: ]

What's on offer inside the tribunal in terms of food & refreshments?

lol


i know - insightful stuff - top work moderators!

If I remember correctly, Dangerfield was hit heavily in a marking contest prior to the Trengove tackle. Isn't it possible he was already suffering some form of concussion from that, yet came back on the ground?

Good point. And if it is the case that he was hit earlier how can the medical report that this charge is based on separate the two? Can it correctly attribute which impact caused what symptoms?

It's like watching grass grow, this live tribunal crap....

Something Dangermouse saw quite closely on Sunday while he was crying (grass growing)

I will go ape droppings if he cops the full three matches! Or two... Or one for that matter....


i think he'll get a concession, but doubt he'll get completley off the hook?

I could live with 1 week.

Tapscott should represent Trenners tonight.

just thinking lateraly - Dangerfield has a history of concussions, to the point he might be considered more prone to it than others...

Give the ass-backwards manner in which this report came to being - If this tackle had happened on, say, Moles (which it DID!), and there is NO concussion, there would never have been a report!

How can any system work this way?

Clearly it doesn't.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
