Has been offered an $1800 fine for umpire contact. Again.

I think there's some people that don't like him...

    Cited in his past 3 games!

    Does it continue to be fines for ump conduct, or can it turn to a suspension (presuming the same classification and not reckless or intentional, of course!)

    I don't know exactly how the progression works but the second offence is what Trengove got.

    If he keeps going like this, then we will definitely lose him next season to GWS as he will need to double his salary to pay his tribunal fines!

    Getting a bit concerned that "TrenGOVE" seems to be spreading like a plague. I'm not the pedantic type, but where it's a person's name, it's important to get it right.

    Wouldn't happen to be the same umpire he keeps running into?

    This is becoming ridiculous! I have done my fair share of umpiring and I have been involved in some sort of body contact with a player on a few occasions. Half the time it was MY FAULT! When are the AFL umps going to take some responsibility for player contact? Gee, at some stages there are 34 players and 2 umpires all in one half of the ground. Makes for a very congested scenario indeed. Come on AFL Trengove doesn't go out there to try and clean up an ump! Share some of the blame umpires.

    Oh my goodness Bobby, that would be way to logical.....

    Far easier and more profitable to simply blame and fine the players as one big guilty group.

    Honestly the kid is going to have start taking charity meals from his team mates if this keeps up :rolleyes: !!!

    By depriving JT of income through suspensions and fines they are encouraging him to focus more on the all important dollar so when he comes out of contract next year he'll consider signing up with the AFL's love child GWS.

    Very logical actually......

    Well yes, Chris is never wrong or ever at fault.....ever!!!

    When it is Chris Judd touching an umpire it's normally consensual. (stolen form Richard Hinds)

    Rules are rules, and he knows where the umpires are going to run after they bounce the ball.

    Sorry, I know logic and reality is often not welcome in here!

    JT needs to be very careful over the remainder of the season. He can't afford to give those pricks anything to slaughter him for otherwise they wont hesitate making an example of him. They did it to Beamer a few years back, and I think it cost him a couple of seasons to fully get his confidence back.

    Poor kid - when the MRP start applying the rules consistently and fairly he might feel that maybe he did the wrong thing, until then, he is justified to feel a bit paranoid. :wacko:

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • 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.
