This is a piss take surely?

Well.. a) he didn’t hit him in the head. b) again, how was he meant to avoid what happened? Is Mitch expected to just disappear into thin air?

What else was Robinson supposed to do there? Put his hands in the air and get himself caved in? There was no way of avoiding that contact there and he’s done his best to make that clash as soft as possible under the scenario. Hasn’t the Port player initiated most of it anyway? Irrespective...

It was clearly intentional. He’ll be lucky if it’s only 2 weeks, suspect it’s probably more though.

Fixed it for you.

Watch it closely, he hasn’t hit him in the head and impact minimal. At best the argument against Gaz is a freeze frame of his arm below Wright’s chin which like any slowmotion shots in these cases, put a bit of mayo on top of what actually happened.

I agree entirely with you as in don’t hit at all but Gaz hasn’t hit anyone in the head, Fyfe did.

Not exactly. Ablett’s wasn’t high enough or had enough impact to actually get charged, Fyfe’s did.

Fyfe’s was worse and actually got Lynch in the head, Ablett’s didn’t.

Agree Ablett is in trouble if he gets him in the head which he hasn’t. So it had to be thrown out. Fyfe however has elbowed Tom Lynch in the head. I’m not sure how he got off that.

As much as I wanted him to be out as they’re playing us this week, there was nothing in it. He’s got him below the head and the impact was low. You can’t suspend anyone for that. Mind you there was GWS v Bulldogs game a few years ago where Toby Greene got cleared for kicking someone in the face...

100%, one of the very few things that truly angers me in the modern game. I’m about over blatant throws and incorrect disposals getting ignored but if some poor bastard dares to actually win the ground ball, some squib comes in second and lays on him, drags it in and puts his free hand up once...

I never said there wasn’t, it’s just that 60k isn’t a rare wage for a lot of skilled positions that are harder than being a goal umpire. I’m in the top category of what I do in a very tough industry and up until 10 months ago was on 55-60k a year after about 6 years of work and study to get a...

That’s what I’ve always thought, if you’re making 150k a year for umpiring then you can be a professional and just do that. No one is forcing them to work elsewhere. Even 60k a year for the other two is the full time wage for a lot of skilled workers that have put more in to their career than a...

He intended to clip him so not really sure why anyone is saying he pulled out. Pulling out and not going at full pace are two very different things. Elected to bump, got him high. I'd be suprised if it wasn't at least two weeks.

Spot on, just have an injury sub. Works on so many levels. Take it out of the clubs hands and appoint and have an AFL appointed doctor sub an injured player out.

Well its clear that your a fan. I'm a good person that generally does the right thing and don't need someone telling me what to do and you know what most people will be fine without him as well. D**khead and dumb minorities in this country will not change because of Waleed.

We're clearly not on page with everything here, mate. Let's move on.

This is what I'm getting at and you're never as wrong as Waleed likes to think you are. We were fine before Waleed got popular and trust me we'd manage just as fine if he wasn't able to broadcast his opinions anymore.

Yeah nice try, champ, I'm aware of character references of course and unless you've been living under a rock this week there's been plenty of criticism around in regards to this. It isn't just me.

Some people are easily fooled.

Good old Waleed getting involved. The bloke is obviously smart but people misunderstand the flog IMO. There's 3 things that can summarise most of what Waleed Aly is getting at in any of his rants: - He tells you that you're wrong - He tells you that you're stupid - Then he tells you how to...
