I'm glad he's challanging, as Matthew Llyod and Quintin Lynch got off on similar ones in the previous weeks. On the back of the Buchanan one as well...

If they get the high contact down a notch to body then he may escape with a reprimand.

He won't get off.

It was just a stupid thing to do in the last game of the year.

It was completely unnecessary & he should plead guilty.

Michael was late & deserves to be suspended.

It was a rookie mistake & I hope he learns his lesson.

You haven't even read the thread have you? Surprise yourself and try to understand exactly what's going on.

I do agree that given the total lack of intensity in the game due to Blues obvious tanking and almost total lack of tackling it WAS stupid and Newton maybe deserves a week for stupidity, espcially if means he gets rubbed out for Sandy also. Could help them in quest for unprecedented 4 in a row!

Was clearly late & is something Michael must learn from - as he has been borderline a couple of other time this year. Will cost him at an important time for MFC if keeps doing late bumps. He is a big boy and maybe limited ablity to change course quickly but needs to judge better given AFL policy.

On a lighter side Byron' almost classic hip and shoulder on Waite was a rare highlight during the circle work on sunday night. Waite saw Byron coming and before Byron pulled out Waite threw himself backwards and landed on his bum - almost in the middle of the G. Problem was Byron missed him totally!! :lol::lol:

On the Morning Glory, they said that Newton would miss for Sandy if he is suspended for the AFL

They were guessing.

I have seen the incident now several times and the contact by Newton's shin to the back was nowhere "near high contact" and far softer than most marking duels. It looked bad front on but was nothing from the rear view as shown on Foxtel. The rear vision actually shows Newton trying to turn his body away from the player and he succeeded with evrything bar his shin. When I compare it to Buchanan's it is laughable. It was late but was minimal contact and he should at the very worst get it reduced to a reprimand if he doesn't beat the charge altogether.

I'd say perhaps Newton has already learnt his lesson. I agree that his actions were stupid but he's not being charged for that. The MRP are limited to choices of Intentional, Reckless and Negligent.

funny how it appears the MRP havnt viewed all the footage, or perhaps didnt view any at all.

and they clearly havnt look at their own guidelines or compared the incident to recent incidents to make sure they are consistent...

what do they actually do then? make guess based on the umpires written report?

I haven't seen the incident ... and I dont care

CONTEST CONTEST CONTEST

There are faults in every legal system similiar to the tribunal system.

Melbourne never contests and it's about time it did!!!

Good stuff. I thought at the time he might be in a bit of trouble given the inconsistency of the tribunal. I'm glad he doesn't have to go into 2008 with that hanging over his head.

MELBOURNE forward Michael Newton has beaten suspension at the AFL Tribunal and escaped with a reprimand for charging.

Newton will now be eligible to play in Melbourne's first AFL match of next season, as well as for the club's VFL affiliate Sandringham in their finals campaign.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
