The song being played around Adelaide oval after the game

Unfortunately you've applied common sense, none of which is used in the law.

Someone has to present the facts, funnily enough this person is a Prosecutor

RIP Aussie Rules Don't forget the hard hats and risk assessments

I couldn't agree more, my situation slightly differs. I have lived interstate/overseas for a number of years and in that time have let my MCC/MFC memberships lapse. If the club appeals the decision I will purchase a membership for my partner and I ( she's a carlton supporter however I WILL convert her) for this year and 2015. An appeal will show something the MFC has not shown in a long time.

The more I think about the decision the more concerned I am about the future of the game. I realise this might sound over the top to some. How many players will now pull out of a contest and decide not to bump or even brace for impact? Just a terrible verdict.

I know it would never happen but is a wonderful thought. I've watched the replay of the "bump" (brace) dozens of times. What angers me the most is the prosecutors argument that Viney should have "spun out." Unfortunately side stepping and spinning away from contests will now have to be the norm.

Long time reader, first time poster. Unfortunately I live interstate and am currently overseas. I would love nothing more than to attend the game on Saturday, not to protest but to support the team. [censored] the AFL, [censored] the MRP and [censored] the tribunal.
