So you've never been drunk and punched someone?
Wow, that really makes it ok does it? The AFL needs to send a clear message that punching someone at a game is unacceptable. They owe it to families that attend. Kids have a right to watch the game without seeing violence. People have lost their lives from one clumsy punch, the flog should be barred permanently.

Oh, I agree. I'm of the opinion that all Richmond supporters should be banned.

Always been punch ups at the footy and everywhere. I remember Iceland and the Ringwood Bowl in the 70's... dangerous.
No excuse then and no excuse now but the filming makes it all so immediate.

Hope no one ever gets stuck with a cheese knife!!

**You lot must rue the day that photo was published**
The Ringwood Bowl!
 
The fact that you assume every poster on here is from Victoria is laughable.

It may come as a shock, but there are actually other states other than Victoria, had you heard?

So instead you are comparing apples with oranges.

A speeding fine in another state has nothing to do with the fine for a violent act in Victoria.

If you are going to compare fines for different things, at least have it under the same jurisdiction so it can be consistent.

You are really getting oddly specific here. Why get so snarky in the first place?

Snarky??

Go back and read how you responded to me.

All I’m pointing out is that your rant about double demerit weekends isn’t really relevant to this discussion and you went on a ‘VicBias rant’— seriously, you’re the snarky one.

"The fact that people still seem to believe that Victoria has "double demerit weekends" is equally as laughable."

How is that not snarky? Such an unnecessary comment

Dead set, after having a look at footage from various angles, the idea that the blonde prick might NOT face charges over that is outrageous. Why should we have to put up with dregs like that who can't handle their booze or emotions (or both) posing a physical risk to us at the footy? We know all too well how easily a single punch can cause permanent damage and this moron was throwing them around like he was under siege. Anyone excusing this as "Aw, you've never been drunk and gotten in a fight?" needs to check their own alcohol consumption and emotional stability. There's no excuse for shit like this.

Not an unnecessary comment.

Every time there’s a long weekend there’s discussion in Victoria about whether we have ‘double demerits’ or not in many workplaces...

I’ve had the discussion about half a dozen times in the past 2 & a half years.

Considering you were comparing the fine the guy received last night to a speeding fine on a double demerit weekend and calling it ‘laughable’ — I thought it would be wise to bring up that double demerits don’t exist in Victoria, because it sounded like you were one of those people that didn’t know.

How would I know that you were trying to compare something that happens in another state to something that happens at the MCG. Law enforcement is a state based issue, therefore what happens in another state is not relevant to this discussion.


Your ability to drive like a ****wit & he unable to stay within the speed limit is about as relevant to this discussion as it being illegal to drink alcohol in some middle eastern countries.

No. I've never gotten drunk and assaulted someone at the footy. I'm not a dickhead.

Yeh I've gotten angry while drunk, and yelled and swore. But my instinct isnt to start swinging. Some of us can handle our booze.

Some eye witness reports said these guys weren't visibly drunk anyway.

Spot the **** on.
 
speaking of facts,I witnessed the entire episode in the afl members.I don't condone any of it but..from the ist quarter the guy in the white tshirt was hassling the Richmond guy for 3 quarters,I wont say he deserved to get a beating but gee he didn't help his own cause.Unfortunately Richmond guy didn't walk away and leave it at that,but what I did learn is 1 never mouth off at someone if you cant handle when things escalate and 2 never ever under estimate your opponent..for a skinny 19 yr old gees he knew how to fight...but a braver man would walk away.I felt so sad to witness the kids crying who had witnessed this all..
