No. The practice match isn’t an official game.

So what Happen IF he never gets Selected?

God Knows. Has to be more to the Story

 

[sr36]

Why are you trying to analyse a story that has more holes in it than Swiss Cheese?

Once again we suck it up and move on till our next player does something.........rinse.........repeat.

Anyone care to run a book on who? I reckon Taylor Adams is overdue.

Yet no one knew it at the time and everyone was surprised what the rule actually was.

Last season, its a $5000 club imposed fine, this year its 4 games.

The world is now a very different place, and it isn't going back to normal any time soon.

 

[eddiesmith]

So Collingwood isn’t appealing, obviously feel it’s a fair penalty or Steele doesn’t want to go into the hub and wants a holiday.

I'm a ex-umpire, I knew exactly was was going on. International cricket umpires are a disgrace now - they just hold your hat and count the balls.

 

[JB007]

Eddie going with this defence tonight

Phillips might panic at an amber light?

Didn't they say they thought it was contestable?

Needs a poll you think sr36?

Why do we do this to ourselves.........time and time again.

 

[JB007]

Steele said he didn’t want them to appeal.

 

[Doc1763]

Steele said he didn’t want them to appeal.

Ah, maybe there is more we dont know.

Phillips might panic at a green light.

 

[Doc1763]

Still gloating I see. You must be so happy tonight.

Just cant bring yourself to do it, can you?

At least it's early in the season.

You know one of them is going to * up every year. But I never thought that getting an uber to a friends house would be the * up. But there you go. It's a bloody strange year.

 

[Maggie5]

I must admit I expected the 4 weeks, but another poster in a previous page made a good point, given the shortened season seems a heavy penalty.

2 or 3 weeks and big fine would have been a better outcome.

 

[ppoiter]

I remember when everyone on this forum got along.

I started lurking around the end of 2012 and have no memory of this

 

[sr36]

I would have preferred Sidebottom missing 4 weeks through another ruptured testicle rather than through a night of drunken stupidity.

Despite the humiliation, if I was Steele I'd choose drunken stupidity.

 

[ottoman]

Don't disagree with what you've said here, fact is almost every year our best players do their best to make themselves unavailable by doing stupid s***.

Yeah move on, two of our best players out, 1 for maybe the season and 1 for probably a month by doing something stupid. Club penalized.


But that's ok, we'll do it again next year or on the eve of finals. Who's turn now? Is Pendles due? What about Darcy or Billy? Finally getting on top of their injuries - how about they make themselves unavailable doing something stupid, week before finals, perfect!. Must be in the charter at our club.

Nah f***** over it.

It's incredibly frustrating
Every effin year.
Without fail.

 

[soreplums]

Who was supposed to pick them up?

Pick who up?

Trust you to construe the club's official statement in the worst possible way. You do not follow the Pies mate. You just come on here to troll and stir up angry debate with your provacative posting.
I have NEVER noticed you on this board, celebrating with all the other Pie supporters, after a big win eg after the Saints game 2 weeks ago. Yet I knew you'd be prominent in this thread, like a fly to dog poo.
