Was the Jack Trengove hearing fair?

Featured Replies

I think you'll find it's Tinney's job whether he agrees with what he's saying or not. He's been hired to prosecute for the MRP, not go in and argue for Jack. Give the Tinney bashing a rest.

 

Adam McNicol: Tinney says medical report showed Dangerfield did suffer severe concussion. The fact he could train today "doesn't in any way change the fact this was a significant injury he sustained."

Dog!

That Tinney bloke is a dog.

Yes and Adam McNicol didn't post comments regarding Tinney - can't imagine why? :(

 

Fix is in.

AFL is refusing to accept Melbourne's argument that the original hearing was a dodgy hearing with only enough time for the panel to pop into the loo before coming out and toeing Demetriou's line.


This, with moderator's endorsement added on top.

May I say that I get the feeling Tinney and I would not become great friends if we were to ever meet? (Just a feeling I get)

Was the hearing fair? It doesn't appear so. Is the appeal open and accountable? The media have been banned from twittering during the hearing - is the AFL afraid that the public might be disquieted from what is being said? There is no reason that this hearing should be closed in this manner - it is worrying that it is. :rolleyes:

Given he was charged on the back of an Adelaide medical report I would think an updated report that downgrades the severity of the concussion (i.e. Dangerfield is now ok to play this weekend), should help.

Yeah... he kind of makes me want to punch him in the back of the head, whilst he's sipping some coffee


get wikileaks on-board this stinks

wow i think we are wasting our time here the afl has never admitted or never will admit that they got something wrong

Hello Adam. Does Tinney have any friends? Was he picked on as a child?

Adam wont answer my question.


Based on what I've been reading I think we're sunk. Hasn't introduced any startling new evidence or clearly shown where the original tribunal verdict was incorrect. Think it's going to stand.

18:32

Adam McNicol: Tony, the tackling player has to take care so that he does not put his opponent's head into the ground and cause him an injury.

Can u believe this shisen?

And some of the knuckle draggers that came up with this have actually played footy!

Yep that's the AFL dictatorship for you

wont take 4 minutes this time gauranteed there in there talking about there plans 4 the weekend to drag it out


Only about 800m from Etihad right now.. and wearing a Demons jacket. So, so tempted to wander on down and glare at people exiting the media centre.

could adelaide's dubious role in this have something to do with the departure of Todd Viney and the commitment to Jack Viney?????

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
