what a pantomime

the swans should be penalised for bringing a vexatious claim and wasting everyone's time

Swans get away with time wasting for the second time in a week 😉

I cant believe the 'I didn't remember hitting him in the face, that doesnt sound like a me thing to do' didn't work.

Patently the correct decision having read the defence arguments.  Let us hope this is the start of a proper unbiased operation of the MRP in the future.

Facepalm.  (Cotchin's face, Franklin's "palm")

It wasn’t a strike it was a “pushing motion.” Give me a break.

🤦‍♀️ 

I’m sure if you were on the receiving end of that from Buddy your opinion may change

This is why I preferred the system of risking extra weeks versus a paltry monetary fine

I was actually quoting Buddy’s counsel. Thought that would’ve been obvious since I BARRACK FOR THE DEES. 🤣

Reckon Buddy's counsel took a leaf of this Jackies Chiles book

Fair dinkum Deeerm is a peanut - there was zero chance he was gong to get off.

Such incredible irony Derm accusing anyone of insulting our intelligence. 

The AFL will somehow find a way to let him walk conspiracy palaver is ridiculous.

And yet ... you, me, Buddy, the Swans, Gil, every [censored] knew that there actually was a chance the tribunal would pull an "AFL tribunal special" and let him off. So why not?

Sanity! A thing AFL often lacks finally prevails😁

The AFL should appeal. I mean, they’re only in it for the money 🤣

who told you to slap the Cotch?

I know, I didn't tell you to slap the Cotch

Everyone wants to slap the Cotch

I guess the conspiracy theorists can take a break for a week

He is Buddy so of course he will get off!

Yeah nah

Exactly. Some of the crap I was reading the other night was comical.

The system works, sort of..

Paves the way for Sam Reid to kick 6. 
 

MFCSS remarkably still lingering after a single defeat.

DubDee - haven’t heard from the High Court of Australia yet. 🤔

Somewhat surprisingly, justice has been upheld!

Correct decision.

Disappointing, as I'd prefer to watch Buddy on Saturday night at the G.

Past experience made it not unlikely.  No conspiracy required. Let’s hope the MRP has turned a new leaf. 

Win win, Cotchin gets slapped and Buddy gets a week.
