Josh Carr cleared

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Bugger.

[Yze_Magic 3]

Guarantee you if it was a Demon player he would have been suspended

That AFL is corrupt

Their love for Fremantle has gone too far...

[Jaded No More 68,903]

Oh great, just great.

If anyone deserves to be suspended, it's that low-life snipper. Who the hell needs evidence when it comes to Josh Carr? Of course he hit someone, it's second nature to him!

I guess with half our midfield out injured, and the other half filling holes up forward and down back, he can line up on Godfrey and Godfrey can hopefully whack him one back!

Hang on a minute.

The tribunal found that"... Mr. Chick's evidence was unconvincing..."

They must be doing something right.

That's legalise for someone's lying and we know who.

[WonnaJurah 5]

headland wont get off thats for sure

i thought carrs record would of meant suspension as per usual

DOH

[The HuLK 139]

Oh that sucks!!! I hate Carr so much!! Hopefully Miller rans through him!!!

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

That does it. Bring in Byron. Buy him a big maccas breakfast. Give him orders that for the day he's not to look at the pill, just make a beeline for anything named Carr. We'll still lose, Byron won't play for 8 weeks, but by gee there'll be some fireworks.

When has Godfey ever hit anyone?

[tess 19]

Bugger.

Thats the shortest thing you've ever written Dan.

[Madness 44]

He's in my DreamTeam, woot...

[tess 19]

I reckon Yze should haVe copped one from him for this absolute hospital kick he got in the third.

[Jaded No More 68,903]

When has Godfey ever hit anyone?

Ummm... never?

But I'm not going to cry if he gets suspend, that's all.

Also, he looks like he'd throw a good punch.

I could never see this getting up. No video evidence, no report by the umpire. Reported on Chick's say so....

I imagine the proceedings went something like this....

Chick: He punched me in the Ribs!

Carr: Did Not!

Chick: Did Too!

Carr: Did Not!

Chick: Did Too!

Carr: Did Not!

Chick: Did Too!

Carr: Did Not!

Chick: Did Too!

Carr: Drugo!

HA!....

Selwood cleared

Headland cleared due to 'exceptional' circumstances, or something.

Headland will play this weekend and probably will cop it.

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

OH JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT DID MFC EVER DO TO YOU?!!!!!!!!!

EH?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ed: ANSWER ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Nice entries under "favourite players."

Selwood was always going to be cleared, it really was their only option given the "he said-he said" state of the argument, with no corroborating evidence.

But Headland still hit him, on numerous occasions, so why is he clear to play?

They have just condoned his violent reaction and said that if someone says something mean to you, you can beat the crap out of them.

Spoke too soon. <_<

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Worse still, if someone gives you a bit of lip, and you mishear them, then it's ok to smack them repeatedly.

Even worse than that, the next time a player is sledged, he can go ahead and take a baseball-bat to the guys head and when the tribunal comes to them and asks "why?" he can say "I thought he said my Mum was ugly... but that's ok. Misunderstanding. I'll just hand him back his jaw and we'll forget the whole thing..."

The AFL is run by a bunch of scared little men.

Instead of tackling this issue head on, they swept it under the rug by clearing both parties and wiping their hands clean without a guilty conscience.

They've done the same with drugs, player depression, they've even managed to stuff up 150 year old rules.

If they can't get a simple 'hands in the back' rule correct, what hope have they got of dealing with bigger, more concerning issues?

But here's the stupidest part, by trying to get rid of this issue, they've opened up an even bigger can of worms. How long before a player pleads not guilty on the count of his victim's offensive sledging?

What an absolute joke!

Seems Headland was exceptionally provoked by words that didn't exist, if I am to correctly read the outcome of both cases.

Well said Jaded.....

Upset Eagle cleared

by: Paul Gough

........But despite not accepting Headland's version of events, the jury still did not impose the six-match suspension on Headland that

he was facing for the resultant two striking charges against Selwood.

Instead he is clear to play this week, despite being found guilty of one striking charge and for wrestling Selwood after the

jury ruled there were 'exceptional and compelling circumstances' behind his actions.........
