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?????

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
