Random Task

Didn't realise that, cheers. Will make for much better watching.

I'll bring the beers

Dogs > people

Any footage readily available of the Sharman hit? Or rough time in the game?

Was Tom Jonas cited for his bump on Zurhaar in this footage? Looked careless, high contact and high impact if Zurhaar has indeed got a fractured cheekbone. Edit: not that I particularly want him cited, but feel less has drawn the ire of the MRO. Incident at 1.00 minute mark

Thought Viney would have more points, having a fantastic season to date.

Are these two games as boring as the scoreline would suggest?

Feel bad for Hunt having to see out his career with a cellar dweller team.

10minutes to work out that they don't have any questions. I don't feel good about this.

Houghton referencing a case from 1909 was fitting, because 1909 is also the number of minutes this appeal looks like it will take.

"how about that Harley Reid kid" - most hawks supporters probably

If his ban isn't overturned, part of me would like to see the club protest by not contesting any marking contests against the hawks. Run at the ball then back off with arms raised and concede the mark. The other part of me wants to smash hawthorn at every opportunity, both in-game and on the scoreboard. Think the latter is better.

What did Powell do/say?

Indeed. All wishful thinking at this stage. For all we know they may get on a roll and we end up with pick 10.

Pick 1. Hawks - H. Reid Pick 2. Eagles - Curtain Pick 3. North - one of Duursma, Watson, Moir, A. Reid Pick 4. Melbourne- TBD

There was nothing in the Carlton one and was rightfully thrown out. Should have been the same for us though.

More comedic relief. Peter O'Farrell (Carlton): I understand the panel has had a long afternoon and long evening, so I'll seek to be brief. I like Peter. The Tribunal is now deliberating. I am now tired.

Some comedic relief The jurors are now coming back from their break, which lasted around 10 minutes. I ate my schnitz wrap and chips in 7 minutes and am feeling ill Lachie Neale is being dialled. His number is 04...... Much like my Mum when I actually need to talk to her, Neale is not answering his phone. Neale has joined the Tribunal via video link. He is being introduced to everyone. He is introduced to the Tribunal secretary and replies "no worries".

Gleeson states they believe his intention is to spoil the ball. Then he's allowed to contest the ball as per their rules, how is this not a massive contradiction. Surely we appeal again.

That sums it up so much better than how I put it.

Just another funny quip from the blog writer. Picture a narcissistic person announcing their senior job title to someone they meet as some affirmation of their authority and importance.
