Josh Carr cleared

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

Yep, just like there is no drug problem in the AFL :rolleyes:

So if one of our players hits say one or both of the Carrs this weekend, can we plead 'exceptional and compelling circumstances' on grounds of them being complete tools and therefore deserving of a good beating?

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!

That seems to be a remarkably accurate description there grazman according to some of the media reports.

Although I think you made Chick sound a little too lucid ;) !!!

Carr cleared of striking charge

April 18, 2007

FREMANTLE midfield player Josh Carr was tonight cleared of a charge of striking West Coast's Daniel Chick,

after the Eagle modified his evidence during the tribunal hearing.......

.........Chick initially told the tribunal that he was punched by Carr in the back slightly below his ribs during the first five minutes of

Saturday's match at Subiaco and said the blow had left him incapacitated for several minutes

He said he left the field for the interchange bench shortly after.

But, under cross-examination from Grant Donaldson SC, representing Carr, Chick conceded he couldn't remember whether the incident occurred

before or after his spell on the bench, which lasted about six minutes.........

.........The jury took only about 10 seconds to deliberate before announcing the charge was not sustained.

Yep it seems that what, buying a home for the roos to run around on.

Tribunal you are too soft- get more tough or else the game will disentergrate into a farce

Whats the message we are receiving from the AFL. You can be caught buying drugs, make alleged paedophilic comments, and make an extreme physical retaliation to an insult. But if you make a $5 bet on the brownlow, or let a swear word slip out, you get punished. Can't believe he didn't even get fined for it.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?
