MRP / Trib. Fyfe, Dawson facing suspensions..?

[Fat Nyfe]

Seething about this. The head contact was incidental. He had no time to affect the kick by tackling. His only other option was stand back and do nothing. Surely this cannot go through.

Contest it, no doubt.. And please a different lawyer than the crap we had last year! I'll be purchasing some netball bibs and skirts in purple and white..

This defence didn't work for Jack Ziebell.

The panel takes the view that if you can't influence the contest with a tackle you are out of the contest.

Looking at the technicalities now, assuming we're going to contest it (and we may as well given he gets 2 weeks anyway), we have to argue that there wasn't enough force to sustain a report. Rischitelli clearly wasn't affected other than having to come off with the blood rule and he was straight back on. At least we can try and argue that it was low impact, not medium, which would take it down to 125 points.

Well it worked for Judd on Pav

Silvagni??

And we're truly stuffed if that's the case.. Him vs Gunston? LOLLLLL

Jack Ziebell jumped off the ground and hit the player clearly high. It was reckless. This was nothing other than a fair bump.

I've been in a really calm place for a while now - but this has created a rage in me that is UNMATCHED !!

what a friggin joke - AFL, MRP, once you have an acronym for a name you are a pr*ck in my books .

I have a 2 pronged approach at rectifying this:
1. Send a truckload of chicken manure and have it dumped on the doorstep of AFL house / office whatever you call it
2. call A Current Affair, get Tracey Grimshaw primed with a bottle of semi sav and have them unload on the injustices, travesties and utter BS that the AFL tends to fling at Freo

Who's with me - anyone know a landscape delivery co in Melbourne that can help out - the media attention will cause a reaction / profile and get this seen to at least

 

[Freo Hitman]

The Afl Shit in there own pockets on this charge. They said he should've tackled but with Fyfe being almost stationary & bracing for a bump any tackle would've been head high. Feel pretty confident about this

 

[FreoGirl]

gutted...

 

[mike91]

We'll appeal and lose, players need to take a stand and speak up about this. Fyfe to miss two crucial games against hawks & bombers, Dawson to miss hawks.

 

[jusjoshin]

How is Ibbo travelling? :-(

 

[eastfreo75]

I hate the rule, but if you choose to bump and their is high contact, then u r gone.

 

[Ragtooth]

Gutted. Stupid rule that has been wrongly implemented. Outraged!

 

[salim malik]

What did Zac go for

 

[dont bowl there]

Anyone got footage of the Dawson trip? Cant say I noticed it during the game.

 

[simpsonwillo]

Neale and Silvagni to come in and play blinders. We'll win anyway and Fyfey will be back for Anzac then the derby

Trip ,when ?

Havent seen it but will be interesting to compare to Wellingham's that got off last week...

 

[DOCKERMANIA]

the rule sucks, but atleast the Geelong player Hunt got a week for the same thing, Silvagni comes in for Dawson, Ibbo if fit or Sylvia for Fyfe unless we can get him off the charge, wouldn't hold my breath though

 

[Stronzo]

Yeah, we'll be right. Someone else has to step up and be counted.

Bet they're doing cartwheels on the Hawks board.

 

[The Black Sheep]

Biggest load of shit I have seen in many years of AFL. One of the best players in the game rubbed out two years in a row for ticky touchwood bullshit cause the match review panel are run by a bunch of soft *****.

Lucky for you this is big footy. Over at Dockerland that post would have lasted 10 seconds, 5 if Shane had her period.

Yeah kinda wound up over this one. Just don't see the logic.

 

[XXRL]

Now I'm going to have to watch 360. I expect Robbo will fire up - he loves Fyfe after all.

 

[mike91]

Neale can obviously come in, but he can't hurt them playing as a resting forward. Could be Sylvia's chance, if it is, you're turn to step up and show us what you got.
