Bartel's Report -thrown Out!

[Richo75]

From the AFL.com.au report:
"On a dirty night for the Cats, Brownlow Medallist Jimmy Bartel was also reported in the third quarter for a high bump on Luke Power."

I missed this......how serious was it, will he get suspended - Thoughts?

Nothing in it.
Should be safe.
He does have points though...

Re: Bartel's Report

I am pretty sure his feet left the ground and that is a big no no. Arm was tucked, impact wasn't too bad. Not the sort of thing Jimmy does, but perhaps he was going to get the week off anyway.

Very low impact. Nothing in it.

Re: Bartel's Report

Nothing in it.A 50 or downfield free [forgot which] was fair enough.If that's reportable then Power will go for the elbow in the back of Laidlers head off the ball.

There was nothing in it, he should get off

Re: Bartel's Report

Doesn't he have carry over points? I wouldn't be surprised to see him get a week for it. His feet left the ground.

There wasn't a lot in it but people have been rubbed out for less.

100% correct mate. His points from the 'attempted trip' earlier in the year against the dogs will hurt him. And as he's a Cats player, you can be sure he'll have the book thrown at him, then somebody will do the same thing or worse against us next week and they won't even have a case to answer (I know that can't surely be true but it always seems to be the case).

I reckon Jimmy, Smithy & Selwood would have all been rested next week anyway.

Yes he does have carry over points for his trip a few weeks ago.

I still can't believe Dawson wasn't cited last week for his hit on Varcoe and then they get Jimmeh for that....SOFT

Re: Bartel's Report

Not sure what the MRP's decision on this will be. From my perspective, Bartel didn't run at Power or deviate to get in Power's path but held his position. Power did seem to run straight at Bartel. Jimmy did jump which in the course of bumping is a no no. But what interests me here is this 'is a player entitled to his space when standing still'? Similar to taking a charge in basketball.

I've only seen the replay twice so I could be wrong.

If he gets off but doesn't play this week due to rest/injury then perhaps Geelong should beg the MRP to give him a week to get rid of overhanging points

I still can't believe Dawson wasn't cited last week for his hit on Varcoe

Could you imagine if Mooney,Barry Hall or Dean Solomon [to name few] did that ?
They'd get a month holiday at least.

The tribunal said that week that Bartel has a duty of care to the players on the field to stop them from falling over his leg, no matter if he was trying to trip.

The very next week the let Lake ( I think) off saying it was a accidental trip.

But because it was not them people did not care less about the hit. In fact they spent most of the week complaining that it should not have even been a free.

Re: Bartel's Report

I think he would have gotten a reprimand, but with the indiscretion earlier in the year, i think he'll have next week on the sidelines, and brownlow medal odds withdrawn.

He played like a dog anyway - probably needs a break.

Hope The Dog takes his spot.

Re: Bartel's Report

It should be thrown out - if not then the system really is a joke.

His "throw" upset him it seemed, that was also a bullshit call.

Re: Bartel's Report

Bartel, carrying 88 demerit points after being found guilty of tripping earlier this season, was staring down the barrel of a suspension had he been found guilty after being booked for engaging in rough conduct against Brisbane Lion Luke Power.

The match review panel deemed that the impact was below that required to sustain the report.
