Buddy - How many weeks?

[MF]

He didn't miss anything. He was just soundly beaten by Rance.

Again, this isn't really relevant to my post.

It's absolutely relevant. May got 3 down to 2 because his bump was deemed "high impact" even though it had a fraction of the force of Franklin's.

Anyway, winners are grinners. Sydney can chew on some more angry pills.

On a positive note my SC side says thanks.

That's a laugh though.

 

[Jaeger]

Sort of. That post more implied that Buddy went missing when he was badly beaten. Badly.

Anyway, winners are grinners. Sydney can ask for a refund on the angry pills.

i was replying to a poster who said "this is permission for Sydney to do what they want" or words to that effect. I wasn't talking about how the charge was graded.

There's more Sydney related threads on their board than there is on ours.

I must admit we do like discussing the 2014 Grand Final.

That's exactly what it comes down to, isn't it? Different club/player, different standards?

It's not our fault that all you talk about on your board is flower arranging and where the best place to get a pedicure in Darling Point is

If Franklin had been playing for Hawthorn still and had done that, he would have copped 4 weeks. Wasn't just the $ that drove Franko to the Rainbow City it was the lesser penalties from these types of incidents.

 

[The King!]

Should appeal would of got off if still a hawk

 

[ashep]

Too right because for years we got screwed over for the slightest of bumps where Buddy copped 1 to 2 weeks. Now that he plays for the AFL love child, this bump, which is far worse than any bump while at Hawthorn, he walks away with only a week. And the bump against the GWS player Buddy was even cleared. So how would you explain it otherwise. Corruption at its best.

Rubbish. The bump he made on Malceski that got 2 down to 1 was worse than this.

What would nippa get if he were a hawk?

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

That's....interesting.

As you point out, plenty of incidents this year (and previously) have their "impact" graded on damage rather than force.

 

[Procrastinator35]

The AFL are a ****ing disgrace.

Plus the better umpiring he cops. He gets free kicks now.

 

[J_Moore]

Hey guys remember when Sydney were banned from trading with no warning and having broken no rules?

 

[RUNVS]

So what were Franklin's suspension lengths at the Hawks?

 

[Ashton Agar]

How the bloody hell did he only get one week!?!?

lol. He copped the same suspension for the hit on Malceski that was worse than this one.

I think you've just proven the case. May resulted in a player being subbed out for remainder of game. Edwards played on.

Guys guys guys. There's no need to fight. You both get looked after at the tribunal.

It's basically what i'd expect. It's trial by medical report and he didn't knock the guy out. Steven May got an extra week for his bump compared to this, which should basically confirm that all that matters is how quickly the other guy gets up.
