In these situations I usually bet on the player getting off, and I still reckon he'll get off. He has too many votes this season to allow an asterisk on Brownlow night.

 

Oh, and purely on the less cynical merits of the offence itself, I reckon there's wiggle room for his people to win the case.

 

What a farce

hopefully the appeals run out by Saturday!

This has to be the longest appeal process ever. 

Probably consulting the Privy council or the House of Lords

 

i wonder how long this objection took to cover "In a different era that would not have resulted in a report."   lol


Clubs should cop an extra week for wasting everyone’s time if not successful.

There should be a disincentive and risk to appeal a tribunal call if it’s just a matter of trying to get your best player to play on the Saturday.

That's longer than it takes to read one of my longer-type posts!

 

Forget tl_dr, more like tl_dl

Siri - give me the definition of an elbow to the head when the player has his back turned

Siri - cheap shot, knocked the bloke out

case closed


If he gets off it's going to set a very big precedent

The ball would only have to be in the vicinity and then it could be carte blanche

With CarlScum demanding compo for Jones I guess they are seeking compo and damages from the MRO and tribunal for besmirching Cripps’ reputation.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
