By wearing protective clothing and rigorously cleaning themselves before and after touching their patients.

Unless you are wearing a full body condom you are gonna get blood on yourself if you are a nurse or a doctor. As for rigorously cleaning themselves, that would only clean off blood they already have on them. I could have scrubbed myself to the point of bleeding before touching a patient and could still get blood on my clothes from a wound.

If he did it, then ridiculous stuff from Howe, and regardless of what Buckley got, deserves to spend weeks out to think about how idiotic he was.

and you're on our side.FMD.

Just goes to prove what a weak as [censored] game this is turning in to.

A bit of blood?? FFS, and he was dobbed in as well.

Anyone would be forgiven to think that the league is rampant with disease and that the notion of blood contacting another palyers clothing (albeit delibrately) is akin to a striking assault.

Excuse me while I go and smash my head into a brick wall.

Well there we go. Someone with as little IQ as a cactus.

Deliberately smearing blood on someone is, in your opinion, acceptable. Deliberate. If Howe didn't do it deliberately then this isn't an issue. But the idea behind the charge is that he did. According to you, the game is weak because we don't tolerate the smearing of blood on people. Might as well just smear crap on them too while we're at it, right? I mean, to not do so is just weak.

You're an idiot.

Imagine all those poor doctors and nurses who get blood on their clothes all day long. How have they ever survived.

So are you.

and you're on our side.FMD.

And you.

Yes, I'm on our side. Sorry that I don't agree with the idea of smearing blood on other people.

So you couldn't just disagree? Had to make your post personally insulting to get your point across? How big was your chest when you were punching the keys out for this little beauty?

I consider Judd dislocating a blokes shoulder worthy of weeks, not the smearing of blood on someone.

Mind boggles. :wacko:

There is definitely a case for players carrying handkerchiefs from now on

Or maybe those horrible handtowels that the American quarterbacks tuck down the front of their knickerbockers

I just saw the incident for the first time, IMO he should get a reprimand of some kind and a fine but weeks for I think is a bit harsh. It was even more bizarre than Judds, I mean I'd love to be a fly on the wall and know what the hell he was thinking.

I think where Buckley's was malicious and done as a measure of payback, Howe's I think was a weird brain fart, perhaps thinking, "if they see the blood I'll have to come off".

care to enlighten. Or do cryptic comments carry some sort of mystique that you enjoy.

I think its pretty obvious. Sometimes you say some really interesting things, and other times you misfire wildly, for example by saying that censuring somebody for wiping blood on an opponent is somehow political correctness gone mad.

Yes, Howe did not intend any malice in his action, the Port player I think was looking the other way. Howe just lifted his knee and quickly dabbed it on the Port shorts.

Based on our treatment by the tribunal over the last couple of years then he is going to get 4 weeks Min.

Sylvia gets a broken jaw and broken back and no case to answer.

Well I could have just disagreed, but then you wouldn't have understood how much I find your opinion ridiculous.

Judd didn't actually dislocate his shoulder, you know. Not saying that Judd didn't deserve weeks (should have got more than 4, really), but the essence of what Judd did was that it was dangerous, stupid, intentionally done, and completely unsportsmanlike. All of which apply to Howe.

The mind boggles indeed.

Our performance on Saturday night was so anaemic that I'm just wondering where the blood came from?

Very good call!

I think he should explain he was suffering from altitude sickness at the time and wasn't aware what he was doing

It sure as hell was not leather poisoning DC.

How was Howe wiping blood on someone dangerous? I seriously cannot understand how you and others are viewing this so badly. Yeah it was silly and done in the heat of the moment but FCS.

I can't believe that you are even asking the question, but as you are, I suggest you do some reading: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_rule

The blood rule is largely a hang up from AIDS/HIV hysteria, when these diseases were less understood than they are now. the risks really aren't that great - vague, poorly written Wikipedia articles notwithstanding (interesting that the sports named are almost all American - land of the free, home of the hysterical)

I'm not saying that there is no risk at all, or condoning the practice of wiping your blood on other people, but unless he was intentionally rubbing his open wound on the open wound of his opponent and/or his mouth, as opposed to on the guys clothing, then it really wasn't dangerous so much as distasteful (if someone did it to me i'd probably give them a whack for their troubles, but then I am a certified sufferer of white line fever ;) )

to put this in the same league as Judd's move which obviously caused Adams a lot of pain and could have caused a serious injury is going way OTT

for the record I reckon Howe will get a week or maybe two, on the grounds of unsportsmanlike conduct/bringing the game into disrepute/whatever you want to call it

I think there are one or two blood borne diseases other than HIV, which can be transmitted via cuts or, I don't know, wiping blood on someone.

Buckley offers Howe the tribunal a helping hand:

http://www.heraldsun...o-1226433845022

Stupid act if intentional but lets wait for the evidence.

Howe gets off with a reprimand.

Side note I am having to quote anyone to add a post is anyone else having this problem?

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
