    Houghton (Melbourne): This attempt to impose a regime of health and safety upon players when construing a rule like 18.5 is quite wrong. 

    We are about to find out whether the appeal board has any skerrick of integrity and independence left.

    Nice 'flex' from the Dees - as it all happens concurrently...

    the standard of care would be quite high in the area of possible concussion so I'm not sure it helps

    The framing of the charge on grounds similar to a tortious complaint is perhaps a dangerous misconception in the area of a disciplinary tribunal.

    Yep it has been framed like that and Counsel for the AFL has argued it that way in his submission by saying "he needed to take care and he failed to take care".

    But what I'm trying to do is ascertain how he failed to take reasonable care. What was he supposed to do? What would the reasonable person have done? It is accepted he intended to spoil the ball. He tried to spoil the ball and just missed. It wasn't a roundhouse or swinging arm spoil. I'm really not sure what the AFL are saying he should've done other than pull out of the contest.

    Wednesday Adams has just taken the stand for the Dees talking about Vicarious Intent and pure Accident. Seems her logic is impeccable!!

    The Rules have to be read in conjunction with the Regulations. Google afl regulations.

    If you frame it in tortious terms the standard would be to ensure you execute the interception in a non contact manner

    IMO they are mixing concepts badly

    If Houghton wins do the AFL have to pay his fees?

    I think we had to pay $10,000 to appeal which we get back if/when we win.

    This Woods guy is too much of a defence of duty of care for the player.

     

    Yes he will.

    I’m not that impressed with our rebuttal. I expected more. 
    Also where was the argument that this isn’t a strike?

    • AFLW REPORT: Adelaide

      Last week’s bitter disappointment turned into player-led resolve as Captain Kate Hore marched her team onto a pristine Princes Park under perfect skies.
      The #DeeArmy banner said Bring The Heat and the Demons delivered a fierce, high-quality contest and ultimately outworked and outpaced the gallant Adelaide Crows to win by 11 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.
