Justice is done.

 

[fugsy]

Good call IMO.

</sarcasm>

 

[poshman]

Good call IMO.

good news, no way he should have been looked at, gary got 50 he deserved that, nothing more.

 

[Bluto]

I could not be more shocked. Dogmeat and soft report, so I expected him to somehow get more weeks.

 

[Nodgey]

Too bloody right. That late spoil was no more than what you see 20 times a game. The MRP must have got caught up in the Freo witch-hunt to have taken it so far.

 

[salim malik]

Good call IMO.

Ablett should have gone for jumping on Crowleys foot

 

[sportsmaniac89]

Well the MRP are exposed as a farce. Crowley should never have been reported so this is justice.

 

[peterss]

Fair Call.

Was very very soft in the first place.

Should have bene thrown out before even making the tribunal.

 

[cat_fanatic]

I think the right decision has been made. Given the style of the game that was being played incidents such as Crowley's hit on Ablett and Mooney's hit on Palmer should and have been dismissed.

I don't quite see how those incidents are even remotely related. One was a player attempting a spoil, the other was a crude attack on a players head.

 

[Reveler]

so out of all the whigning the only player who did somethign wrong was solly.

 

[Belnakor]

If Josh "Mike" Hunt can get off his "spoil" then i guess Crowley does too.

I agree.

It has been acknowledged that the Solomon incident was bad, and after the game I felt that there had been alot of brush fires but leave them on the field and don't go on a witch hunt. I think the MRP made an error, they had to just forward the Solomon incident to the tribunal and just let the rest of the niggly incidents stay on the field. By picking out one incident from 4 or 5 was their error.

Anyway onto next week and I hope we hit the ball with extra vigour.

Agreed.

But do you ever get the feeling that these decision are orchestrated by the AFL. They realized stitching up Crowley was pushing it a bit far given the other minor incidents.

 

[rizzo]

Good call by the tribunal. Deserved 50, but 1 week was stupid.

 

[sabre_ac]

Insane that it was even reported.

 

[Belnakor]

I think the definition of insanity is doing the same thing again and expecting different results. I would have thought challenging the tribunal would end up being our insanity plea
