MRP / Trib. NicNat Watch. Tribunal Edition

[Chris_6678]

Be about midday if we hear anything?

 

[Biggie]

Nic Nat with the big "throat choke slam", deserves a week during the season, being finals surely he gets off

 

[Fyfster]

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.

Will be a fine or nothing ,I agree No suspension

Yep no suspension.

Deserves a fine, Nic said as much himself post-match. $2500 would be the right result for all (i.e. can't go throwing guys into a fence - but it wasn't hard enough to cause injury).

 

[KERRPOW]

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.

That was directly after that prick gut pinched yeo in a marking contest

Enjoy September

 

[Chris_6678]

Nic Nat to donate some fencing to people in need.

Naitanui is hard to classify under the table. I’ve had a look at the rules. One viable option would be to classify it under the misconduct provisions - not the table. Providing it’s not serious misconduct, he’s looking at a fine.

 

[Obeanie1]

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

Yep. A bunch of pathetic Vic bias flogs trying to do their bit to help the team they played for.

Someone needed to call out Ling as the bias flog he is.

And to round of the impartiality Christian an ex Pies player as MRP officer.

The AFL and caring about integrity should not be used in the same sentence.

He's a bit of a flog, but what he says here is spot on. misconduct fine incoming hopefully.

Ok which one of you campaigners sprayed their drink?

‘Absolute disgrace’: Fan faces backlash for drink spill

An Eagles supporter is facing backlash after appearing to deliberately spill his drink in front of Essendon players as they wrestled with Nic Naitanui during the heated boundary-line altercation.

I love how the only people putting him are those who probably wanted essendon to win.

The disgrace is that the Bombers haven't won a final since 2004 and have been pumped in nearly all the finals they have played since then.

The panel on fox footy last night (Lyon, Brown etc.) echoed the same sentiments. Pretty much said that because NN has long hair, it's fair game. Lyon got on his high horse as usual saying that NN overreacted and that it was not on. They are on a mission to rub him out.

You can get drugs for that!
Their problems are self inflicted.

This is s**t behaviour regardless of who you support.

On the Nic Nat case, is there any chance that the MRO pull out their magical "potential to cause serious injury" card?

EFA

 

[Brave Sir Robin]

Brendon Goddard is right and all but I do get a chuckle out of him admonishing opposition supporters for their flog behaviour to Essendon players. He couldn't even live up to that when he was their own damn teammate.

Of course there’s a chance, this is Nic, the only player in the history of the game who’s had the tribunal make up a rule during a hearing to get him suspended.

“If you have long hair it’s fair game” is a very interesting precedent to set, given Dyson Heppell looks like he’s doing a bad Freo mascot cosplay.

If that’s the adjudication, so be it, but Merrett’s just started open season on his own captain if so.

If they could do that, Nic would have been suspended every time he tackles

Didn't even look like beer. Looked like water. Just trying to cool them down.
