Or Martyn - no wait, didn't he get away with fracturing S Blacks eye socket in a prelim final?

Hi Dave

What exactly did I say to make such an impression?

Consisteny from the tribunal - well just ask North supporters.
- G. Archer has been reported AND suspended in the past for ATTEMPTING to hit a player - his own teammate. He has been reported AND suspended in the past for ATTEMPTING to trip, (G. Lyon and I believe Calthorpe (Ess) were not even cited.

- Check out the melee in last year's game against Essendon; Son of Sheedy - hitman Wallis started the melee but was not even reported. Carey, Archer, McCartney (for striking - late withdrawn because he was being choked by 2 Essendon players) McKernan, not sure if any others.

- Brent Harvey reported and found guilty for touching (actual report interferring) an umpire - 2 matches. A lot of talk about Turley/Curley - who collided with the umpire and subsquently had his penalty reduced - but very little talk of Boomer who only tried to get the umpire's attention and that fact was not disputed and his penalty was not reduced.

- David King was reported and found guilty of colliding with a runner. What in the hell are they doing on the ground?

- Anthony Stevens was reported and found guilty of 'touching' a club doctor. The charge was led by Eddie 'media, collingwood presidente' even though Stevo had very nearly died in a freak accident and understood a doctor's role. Eddie didn't mention that the doctor and Stevo were very good friends.

I think North have their 'fair share' of inconsisent tribunal decisions.

Bagged the crap out of my team and it's supporters a time or three. Complained vociferously about Jason Johnson's bump on Johnny Blakey and claimed that a certain incident in round one was malicious and punishible by death. That's about it for the momment Stick to your guns hon, passion is what makes footy so great. Just expect a bit of return fire!

That I find very hard to believe. Can you tell me when this occured - I've got a book on tribunal history that I'd like to look it up in?

And inconsistant tribunal is an oxymoron is it not?

- Check out the melee in last year's game against Essendon; Son of Sheedy - hitman Wallis started the melee but was not even reported. Carey, Archer, McCartney (for striking - late withdrawn because he was being choked by 2 Essendon players) McKernan, not sure if any others.

Yeah well, you see it your way yada yada.

- Brent Harvey reported and found guilty for touching (actual report interferring) an umpire - 2 matches.

Yeah, he was stiff no doubt.

- David King was reported and found guilty of colliding with a runner. What in the hell are they doing on the ground?

Umm, delivering a message. That's what they do

Yeah, Mick Martyn the year he broke Black's eye socket was pretty inconsistant. I guess they're still trying to make up for missing that


Nice to see you back, I think
