Moved Thread #7: Jack Ziebell [Part I] © -

[Dirty_11]

So Firritto gets a week based on the Carlton medical report but in this case the medical report is not taken into consideration. Stop agreeing and defending this joke of a panel. They are either f***ing imbeciles or corrupt. GAGF.

 

[Dirty_11]

I thought the whole new system was introduced so when petty incidents like these occur, where no one is injured, the players cop a fine and everyone moves on. In reality it is just as grey and cloudy and riddled with inconsistencies as the previous system.

 

[KangaRooster]

I would be challenging based on that it should be graded low impact.

Dangerous...

Can't afford to lose Jack for two weeks.

Take the week and come back firing.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

If we challenge, he may get the death penalty.

 

[Rockstar6]

Take the week off. I know its a crunch game this weekend but Ziebs comes out firing after suspensions.

 

[ozzyoslo]

take the medicine and move on.

 

[the big lebowski]

Lol. The only thing dumber than the "medium" impact call would be norths decision to appeal.

 

[ozzyoslo]

If we challenge, he may get the death penalty.

Nope......have to answer "the Haug" war tribunal 1st then maybe a Public hanging.

 

[ChopChopDigDig]

I don't think it's a bad result.

JZ knows it was an undisciplined act, so he better make the most of his week off and be ready for the Dogs & Tigers game.

 

[Thewlis Dish]

Cop it and move on. He knew what he was doing.

 

[niko11]

Damn i got that one wrong..
Anyhow if it gives Dumont his chance then i hope he takes it...

 

[hilly]

I stand corrected.

The MRP continues to be a joke.

Take away the "it was stupid", "he wasn't going for the ball" etc.

The same incident has been let go numerous times this year, until Spud became the first to get done.

The only reason he has copped a suspension is the "medium" impact, not due to stupidity or not going for the footy. The guy got straight back up and kicked a goal, played out the game perfectly fine.

I thought Firrito pushed the envelope to be honest.

 

[ozzyoslo]

Cop it and move on. He knew what he was doing.

Almost "Captain like" to start the emotions going by starting a Barney

 

[Shinboner '07]

I can handle 1 week. Accept and move on.

What a joke though that riewoldts bump on Higgins wasn't even looked at. Didn't deserve suspension but still should've been looked at. Pretty sure he made contact with Higgins jaw too.

Theres a special rule there where if a player has done wrong against an AFL pin up boy Plays in the same team then its ok.....written in the bylaws, hidden underneath piles of bullsch1t.

If it was to the body and not the head he would recieve a fine only

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Best we could realistically hope for.

 

[Luke72]

Best we could realistically hope for.

similar incidents have been judged less harshly all year, Spud on Franklin and Lewis on Goldy for example. I reckon he's pretty stiff

 

[Harris 10]

If you whack a bloke in the head with a fist then it's hard to argue that he shouldn't get a week.

 

[gokangas]

Take the week. He deserves it.

Yep.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

I did say realistically. He isn't much of a MRP pet.

 

[Mr Reliable]

Lucky the Saint's not a bleeder. That sort of stupidity cost Jason McCartney a place in a premiership side.

 

[Marstermind]

He hit him in the head. One week was the best we could have hoped for. Take it and run.

I think you'll find Lewis got 2 weeks for his hit on Goldy, Ziebel only got 1 week, for the same action, best take the week.

 

[Luke72]

I think you'll find Lewis got 2 weeks for his hit on Goldy, Ziebel only got 1 week, for the same action, best take the week.

I think Lewis was later and connected more although I agree Ziebs should take the week. I don't think he physically hurt the bloke.
