MRP / Trib. NicNat Watch. Tribunal Edition

[Wild Kelly]

It'll be deemed intentional, he had time to pause and then grab at the throat.

My guess: Intentional, low grade, body, fine. If deemed medium grade he'll get two down to one.

F*** ep you really are a little ray of sunshine aren't you? There is no way he will be suspended for this. No chance.

 

[whatis]

I think there is a huge chance. Thursday night game so lots of coverage, condemned by commentary, not a Brownlow chance = weeks. Christian will justify it however the AFL require him to. The only thing that might save him is a finals discount but I'm not expecting any favours.

Just heard Lings comments on the matter.

Ugly pink pig can go play in traffic.

MRO will look like a contortionist trying to manufacture a way to give him a week.

Ling can G A G F. Was also groaning during the commentary when we got turnovers so his dumb comments are not surprising. At least BT had some common sense about it.

Christian was at the ARC during the game. Should know tomorrow either way?

The Match Review and medical pod will feature three people, including an operator and Match Review Officer Michael Christian. He will investigate incidents as they happen in order to speed up the Match Review process.

"It just makes everything so much more efficient," Christian told AFL.com.au.

"We get to a situation being at the game, watching it live, where we can make sure that a lot of incidents that we'd ordinarily clip that look like they could be a charge, we can dismiss them if need be on the spot so it's not carried over.

"By the same token, we've got the opportunity to look at all angles of a particular incident and make an adjudication almost instantly and on the spot, which is fantastic."

The dirty grubs are gonna throw a week at him arent they? Cant have him tearing geelong or the pies a new ass next weekend

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Pfft Ling is just worried about what NicNat would do Stanley or Blicavs.

Nope. No chance he gets a week. Merret played out the game, they both had a chuckle about it after the match.

Head didn't hit the fence (and no way the choke hand is deemed sufficient force) so has to be body contact low impact.

Unless he doesn't even grade it and goes straight to misconduct fines for both (which is what my guess is).

Trial by media and the witchunt to get him suspended is already in full swing.

Nah, SEN this morning they were like a fine at best. That was Gary and Tim with Mike Sheahen, usually on the money.
The one I'm worried about is Gerald, he gets all high horse about stuff and can push an agenda pretty far in the media.

Especially when we may be playing his team next week...

 

[kerr87]

The only angle they can offer him a week is for thr act of throwing him into the fence with the standard "not a great example for kids" and "we shouldn't see that in our game" etc etc.

 

[Chumly]

I haven't seen the replay of the incident but I thought i saw, in the ensuing melee, Yeo running in and picking up an Essendon player and slamming him into the ground (Like WWE style). To me it looked much more 'dangerous' than Nic Nat's shove.

Tell me I am going blind.

 

[EagleEgo]

Nic Nat has the right to protect his scalp from pulling off by fighting off the offender.
Not even a fine.

 

[Monocle]

It'll be deemed intentional, he had time to pause and then grab at the throat.

My guess: Intentional, low grade, body, fine. If deemed medium grade he'll get two down to one.

Saad was doing 31.7 kmh officially
Nicnat mowed him down in 31.9 kmh ..

Well, Essendon got a bit of momentum after that, so I don't know entirely about that statement within the context of the game.

 

[Balls In]

Its 10am in Prictoria and Christian still hasn't thrown this out?

Crowd got a fair bit of momentum out of it to be fair.

 

[new breed]

If Cothin gets off in the Preliminary final 2017 then NicNat won't get suspended .

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Barry Hall punched someone in the guts and got off so he could play for Sydney against us in the 2005 GF, but Nic doesn’t play for a team the AFL need to win a premiership to keep the market share going, so he’ll most likely get suspended.

 

[ziad]

been similar incidents in tha last few weeks - not a mention. It was restrained by any standard into the grounds more than the fence.
What sort of dog pulls hair??

Good point I had forgotten about the little Essendon stand in the context of the game ..
