Just asking for a friend (known as MFCSS) - can the AFL appeal and appeal board hearing?

No. They can take themselves to court if they really want to.

I'll frame the verdict and it'll go straight to the pool room!!

And it should go on Rooeys highlight reel!!

Did Demonland just melt down for 10 mins?

Can we open a post appeal thread now please?

Glad with decision but it is a mess that it had to go this far. The fact he was cited for striking is just beyond comprehension.

It's like a digital wallet but if you get scammed using PayPal it's a lot easier to get your money back through them then it is the bank

What compensation does the MFC get from the AFL for all this faffing around?

It got too excited 

Got the right decision eventually but JVR should have NEVER been cited in the first place. 

GOOD WORK DEES. 

Now smash the dorks. 

Demonland right now:

So bloody good!!

The only ones celebrating harder than us are the lawyers who’s picnic is full of caviar and Grange. 

So they found that what we said on Tuesday night was correct.

You know how much the pub on the ocean sold for recently @Emerald?

 

Maybe I should walk up there and buy a drink to celebrate.

This is bigger than the toppling of the Berlin Wall. 

Historians will write about this day. 

"On that day, the web-site's bulletin board, with over 700 people and/or bots participating, stayed on-line with no 'crashing' and only short delays coinciding with a sporting tribunal debate. Experts are undecided if the debate contributed to the delays."

Be interesting to read the reasons for the decision.

Awesome stuff from the club. very pleased. 
 

This hearing had the potential to change more than just the fabric of the game.
Supporters are growing tired of the ongoing meddling of the rules and the excessive amount of umpiring of our game. 
Strewth, if we sanitise this game too much it will lose pretty much all of its Uniqueness

Absolutely.

The Chairman on tuesday at the Tribunal made it up as he went along.

He added things to the rules, that weren't there.

Actually pretty simple.

[censored] West Australian, I have been hitting search every so often waiting for a result, and this was the headline, thought we had lost. 

 

Well done to the club!

It lives for now, watch wording of the rules be changed tomorrow.

Cudos to the Club for how they handled this. Did not back down and showed strong support to JVR.
