I'd much rather Kent.

Me too, and I'd be surprised if they don't trade places when Kent returns from suspension. Byrnes really gives us SFA.

Our kicking really lets us down, specifically kicking to blokes on the lead. Far too many show too much of the ball to the opposition and sit it up on the marking player's head, making it easy for defenders to spoil.

Someone called it earlier in the thread, and here it is: (not particularly funny)

As a guide:

In round 7 2010 for the same event/game, we got 45,000 so 50K isn't totally out of the question.

That was the night of the pink umpires fiasco if i remember correctly..

I saw a reference in another thread to Stu wearing lederhosen.

Where is he? Mid-season trip to Bavaria?

Thank god for social media..... amen!

Slacktivism at its very best!

It's pretty simple really.

Don't [censored] with Jack Viney, and don't [censored] with the Melbourne Football Club.

wo0o0o0o-ho0o0o00!!!!!

He was trying to get the footy!!

Doesn't sound like we addressed the "unreasonableness" of the original decision. Made valid arguments, but to be successful it had to address it in those terms.

who's representing us?

David Grace QC

Stop showing your bias Nathan.

He was on our side the other night. Thought we had a strong case and would be cleared.

Bloody frame-by-frame examination... Show it in real-time and ask if anyone in the universe could have "spun out" of that collision?

Sorry if it's been answered already but do we get to follow proceedings like the other night?

I've checked here http://www.afl.com.au/news/tribunal but it doesnt look like they have the same set-up..

This is what the tribunal thinks Viney should have done. Seriously.

also not written was the fact the guest in room 1001 was a naked 53 yo woman who only had frilly knickers to loan.

You seem to know a lot about it jazza - weren't you in town recently?

I don't understand how it's even news.

What's so unusual or novel about Biff urinating his way around the Gat in someone else's undies?

Sounds like a fairly typical night to me...

All this winning has forced the real issues to the back pages.

Not that far back in the paper to hide this interesting yarn:

http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/irishman-pleads-guilty-to-causing-500000-flood-damage-to-hotel-20140506-zr5od.html

It's about a bloke nicknamed "Gaff" - but by transposing a few letters we can uncover the real story which is about "Biff" and the "Gat".

A drunk Gaffney woke up just after midnight and walked out into the hallway and urinated.

Wearing just a pair of underpants, Gaffney took the emergency exit stairs down to the eighth floor and turned on the fire hydrant valve, causing a large amount of water to start gushing out. Every floor below the eighth floor was soon flooded and guests had to be evacuated.

Wet and naked, Gaffney then walked up to the 10th floor and woke up a guest in apartment 1001 who gave him a pair of underpants to put on.

2 game ban.

Medium impact for a bump he was "guilty" of putting a guy out for 6 weeks.

Right.

Yep, they don't know whether they're Arthur or Martha

Roosy about to be on 3AW

Great case from the Dees. Highlighted he had no options.

The key was frame-by-frame footage showing he stopped striding when the ball bounced Lynch's way.

Great job by Viney under questioning.

I'll be shocked if he's guilty.

Gleeson says he could have avoided contact by pushing off his left foot and getting out of the road.

Yeh, cause that's really what you want your players to be doing, getting out of the way

17 pressure acts and a swag of contested footy - fantastic return for a KPF.

And that tackle was brutal.

Fell off my chair tonight when Damo Barrett admitted, ON AIR, on FC that he might have been wrong about his criticism of the Kelly/Salem/Tyson deal. Respect due where respect is due.

Tried to cover his backside by saying it's a debate that we'll be having for the next 10 years, but only succeeded in making himself look like an idiot as he was the one who rushed to judgement without even seeing 2 of the 3 protagonists play.

I'm not a Barrett hater like many on this site, but he has every reason to be red-faced over this one.
