Absolute nonsense 

You try putting physical pressure on for 120 minutes each week and not get into the occasional scrap

The bump was completely fine. until Moore was on his knees

Kozzi gives 100% each week and to call him out for his aggression is poor form. We need it

About as poor form as your reason for not attending the Pies game last Friday night. 

Blaming Nibbler for putting his family ahead of his career is wrong also. Then for you to conjure up it as a reason for you to  not go is even worse. 

Pathetic in fact. 10 years of loyal service a premiership hero not sure we need fans with this memory or sort of appreciation.

Remarkable.  I'm done with footy.  Farewell Demonlanders.

 I never used Neal Bullen as a reason for not attending the footy last week. You might have the wrong guy.

and another thing ...

why was the delayed concussion leading to the high impact aspect not even questioned?

where was the proof it was related to this incident, surely it is open to questioning?

[biggestred 4,768]

at what point are we going to grow some balls and call out that the MRO and Jeff Gleeson, no matter how independent they try to be, are both collingwood people and will forever be about as transparent as a brick? 

[layzie 32,724]

To hell with this. Who gives a damn

Are you doing anything. Pro bono of course.😁

I am nearly retired and the club should have plenty of Barristers to select from.

You would have thought so.

I  am prepared to have a little wager with myself,  that if the Pies were in an Elimination final the next week that maybe things might have been a little different.

Moore jumped up and took his kick and stayed on the ground.

Gus was knocked out cold and yet that wasn’t rough play but Kozzie’s is after a change in movement at the last second by Moore, give me a break.

[Superunknown 4,052]

Pert needs to demand Gleeson not sit our cases at all. our club must appeal and tear gleesons ruling to shreds and not use Anderson ever again. He is utterly inept.

 

If we don’t, I’m done

[Demonland 70,216]

 

[DistrACTION Jackson 8,283]

If we don't appeal this decision and get off I am done for the year and potentially for good.

I will not be watching one minute of this corrupt finals series.

Just skimming the article, but one glaring aspect stands out: the so-called 'Tribunal' accepts that a player is within the rules to dive at the ball, even if the player diving takes out the legs of the opposition player who, in this case, was clearly 'going for the ball' in an upright position - um, the position I assume most 'football' rules are premised on. In other words, to dive at the feet of someone going for the ball seems to be okay by this 'Court of Law, especially if the diving player wears a black and white striped guernsey.

Who did we hire that successfully got JVR off at the appeals board last year?

With all that said and done, 4 suspensions/7 matches lost through suspension over a 50 game period is a poor statistic irrespective of whether you blame the MRO and the tribunal rather than the player himself.

Kozzy is trending positively, he is much careful now than he was 2 years ago.

This latest situation is not on him whatsoever.

[OhMyDees 1,824]

Can we appeal again?

We can, we can go to the appeals board, which we did with the JVR suspension.

I hope we do, but somehow I think the club is juggling so many burning balls, they will let this one drop.

Also does Adrian owe us a free session under the "lose 10 hearings, and the 11th is free" deal?

The rubbish they come out with to justify their decision is unbelievable.

does he work on a no-win no-fee basis?

I sure hope so! 

I can't see any other reason why we insist to keep using him. I have zero background in law, and I reckon I could have done better defending both Gus and Kosi.

3 weeks for handbagging.

I've seen tougher blokes than Darcy Moore at the Flower show.

Jamie Elliot is probably ashamed.

Maybe we forgot our 'got [censored] over by the MRO' stamp card

I have 4 comments here.

First The Tribunal  has found that it was reasonably foreseeable that Moore running towards the ball, would drop to the ground and that Kozzie should have known that and foreseen that as he ran in at speed and that therefore any bump at all could hit Moore in the head. That imo is errant rubbish.

Second that The Tribunal  allowed an amendment to the charge during the hearing, yet on other hearings refused to allow amendments, like for example Hewett, who was found to have struck a player to the head with his hand, but vision showing they had alleged the wrong hand,  but clearly a strike with the other hand. Why was a proven strike simply not just amended to the correct hand. Instead they let him off.

Third, how long did The Tribunal take to decide the case and write down the reasons. The findings are lengthy and written down as shown above. It takes time to weigh the evidence and decide on each issue and then more time to write it all down. I am bemused this could be done as quickly as appears, in the time spent on deliberations. Doesn’t sound like a lot of discussion on the issues.

Lastly why does the AFL allow a Pies supporting person to chair a Tribunal dealing with Collingwood players?

I love that "he dived at the ball" feet first.

Uneffenbelivable.

We must appeal

[Sydee 4,182]

Personally I just don’t need any more reasons to absolutely hate Collingwood but here we are yet another one
