Stevie J's kidney whack on Mitchell

[J_Moore]

Aussie Rules is still a contact sport, yeh?

Hahaha mate, really?

If you're going to do the macho bullshit posturing, at least recognise that belting a bloke in the kidneys while he's not looking doesn't rate particularly highly on the bravery scale.

 

[Aeon05]

SJ just did to Mitchell what Sam does every week.
So your saying that Mitchell is in fact a dog? Good to see Hawk fans are starting to acknowledge this fact

and when was the last time Mitchell was reported?

Just shows Mark Evans influence now doesn't it

 

[krisholio14]

He'll get a week. Fair enough too. Not much in it, but it was a blatant and unnecessary cheap shot.

 

[Bell Ringer]

It's a contact sport, but not a sport where you can line up a bloke from behind.

0 weeks;

OK then.

Belting blokes in the kidneys while they're not looking doesn't rate particularly highly on the bravery scale.

It is still part of football, though. Just ask Adam Goodes.

Who also doesn't rate particularly highly on the bravery scale.

This one's worse. He's aimed for his kidneys. Dog act.

Yeah, I feel no real need to defend the instances where Goodes hit people while they weren't looking. They were cheap shots.

Good try, though.

 

[D-N-R]

Aren't the new tribunal rules meant to bring this stuff down to a fine, then three strikes and you're out?

Stevie J to be the first to get three strikes.

 

[JUBJUB]

Deserves at least a month I reckon, especially considering his poor record at the tribunal/MRP.

Thoughts ??

All players priors have been scrapped.
Good on Johnson but next time do some more damage [give TV a ring,he knows how to do it]
Mitchell decks opponents off the ball and got some of his own medicine.

Nothing in it.

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

He's a d/h.

 

[Catatonic Shock]

I would have said a week but since Bugg didn't even have a case to answer for IMO a worse hit then a fine and move on.

The difference IMO is that Bugg's was an accident while Stevie lined him up and threw out an arm to make sure he got him.

 

[Wil79]

Good on Johnson but next time do some more damage

You sound like a quality bloke. Hope you enjoyed the game today

When was the last time Stevie J was named "Australian Of The Year"
Don't ever compare anything Goodes did that warranted MRP scrutiny with any other unprotected species !!!

And don't get me wrong, Stevie J ran off the line to hit Mitchell and deserves a week at least.
And nothing Mitchell has done in the past gives anyone the right to a free hit.

 

[RegHickeyStand]

Good question. Didn't he punch Selwood in the face today?

 

[ChesterTreasure]

FFS - Selwood can't go to church without getting a facial injury !!!

 

[RegHickeyStand]

FFS - Selwood can't go to church without getting a facial injury !!!

And Mitchell is always taking a dive!!!!!! Nothing in it. Dismissed.

 

[Wil79]

Good question. Didn't he punch Selwood in the face today?

Will no doubt be reported if he did.

Some hurt feelings among the Geelong faithful today...

 

[romeoh]

Wasn't the kidney, just the back but nasty and he should get a week.

Nah. Knew you blokes would be coming out of the blocks pretty hard this year. And I predicted we would slip. Not too surprised. Not too surprised about SJ getting 500 replays and other off the ball stuff being ignored too. It is what it is.

 

[blue harvest]

Intentional, medium impact.
2 weeks down to 1 with plea.

Don't forget Sewell is on the MRP.

Haha, yep but he probably knows Hawks have a few good hits coming from Geelong to try and even up the ledger. So he will be lenient.
