Interesting thought.

It takes over 75 minutes for 3 ex player lawyers to decide if a player did the wrong thing in one second.

Makes the whole thing seem totally ridiculous.

 

Brilliant.

    They are charging in 1 minute increments @Redleg. What's your charging regime?

    QD - I am getting bored and thus pedantic.   It is a regimen.  A regime is a despotic dictatorship, like the AFL

    Feels like we are going to get shafted and then nobody will suffer a similar punishment for the rest of the season.

    Nothing surer

    Will Houghton KC is representing Melbourne and young star Jacob van Rooyen.

     

    He is arguing that rule 18.5.1 is there to protect a player whose sole objective is to either contest the mark or spoil the mark. He says rule 18.5.3 contains a protection or an immunity to the player, when their sole objective is contesting a mark or seeking to spoil a mark, from being charged with a reportable offence.

     

    The rules:

    18.5.1: The Player whose sole objective is to contest or spoil a Mark shall be permitted to do so. 

    18.5.3: Incidental contact in a Marking contest will be permitted if the Player's sole objective is to contest or spoil a Mark.

     

    Houghton argues that van Rooyen spoiled the mark using an outstretched arm and fist to punch the ball away, which should be the end of the matter.
     

    That’s our case.  How can they suspend him !!!

    You mean ever.

    Looking like the Moloney /Bartel case.  Didn't hit but could have.

    I think the issue is his use of the facepalm followed by this is ridiculous. I wonder if the AFL will withdraw the please explain should the Appeals Board find that the 2 week suspension is in fact ridiculous.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
