Must appeal on that alone!! Furthermore, Brisbane chose not to bring him back on as a precaution not because he was out to it. This decision stinks big time. 1 Quote

It was a dumb act, a bit of a brain fade. ...but as 'Gonzo' said, minimal impact. A fine and move on. Come on Rjay..the lion [censored] wasn't even looking where he was going !! 1 Quote

The area above the shoulders not just the head is protected if an earlier poster is correct and to me that sounds logical. If there is doubt the club will appeal It was not a bump. May stood his ground, braced himself for contact when the dumbass Brisbane player ran into him. A bump is when you move towards someone with the intention of connecting. May stood his ground.... 4 Quote

The Stigga 1,097 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 lol! All this is is retribution for May leaving Gold Coast. Quote
Smokey 4,391 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Nothing in it. The watering down of our great game continues. Tough one for MFC - our backline is better with him there, and we could probably account for Port without him. Do we really want risk not having him available to match up on Hawkins in R2? Hawkins has a track record of belting anyone else we could put on him. Quote

Your post is drivel. I don't know if you've ever played football, but one player knew there was a collision coming and the other didn't. 3 Quote
Wiseblood 24,637 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Apparently we have till 11am to make a decision re: challenging the one match ban, so expect some news in the next 20 minutes or so. Quote

bobby1554 1,275 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Mitch Cleary reporting that he expects the club will challenge, on the premise of downgrading the "medium impact". And so they should! Quote

Pretty happy to see the uproar from oppo supporters about how terrible this suspension is. Proves its not just my red and blue glasses. 2 Quote
premiers13 48 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 So Munford smacks his opponent in the face with his foreman , deliberate action. Gets off his ban and May who stood his ground and his opponent 'throws' himself backwards gets a week. Our game is in such good hands, we never know what decision is about to occur when the umpire blows his whistle and now we can guess work Christian's interpretations. How is it possible to suggest that Munford's action was of less force than May's ? The game is 'in such good hands!' yeah right! 4 Quote

Watch it in real time: may stood his ground and turned at the last second to avoid being injured himself. Berry ran into him. Like I keep saying, watch the bloody thing in real time: may had a split second to decide what to do. To step out of the way was NOT an AFL FOOTBALLER'S OPTION. 1 Quote
