MRP / Trib. Fyfes Report

[ImperialPurple]

Yep, Zac Dawson had one just the same as Roughy either last year or the year before and skipped a week for it.

This may be the first trip by leg this season, but I'm not sure because I can't find video of Elliott, Clarke or NicNat's indiscretions.

Clarke's was a leg, but in congestion. Don't know about the other two.

Shame if he gets done, easily the best player in the competition - Throughly deserves to win the brownlow this year!

Nic Nat's trip was no better than Fyfe's. Brisbane player running past and Nic Nat stuck his leg out and he tripped over.

The Nick Nat trip is at about 1.35 on the video.

Natianui's was much worse as it was a deliberate trip. Fyfe clearly slipped over and his leg extended as reaction to the fall. Having said that that though, I thought that Sam May would have got off.

Apologies if this has already been mentioned, what time does thr MRP sit?

 

[Tonga Bob]

This was posted on the AFL website. Best thing in there for me is that the bookies haven't adjusted their markets. If anyone knows, the bookies know.

No its usually between 4 and 5 est. First notice is when Patrick Keane AFL media officer tweets then

Woah. If you're quoting Friedrich buddy, I'm pulling out one of the big guns in WC Fields.

"It was a woman who drove me to drink and I never got the chance to thank her."

or George Best when he was asked what he did with all the money he made playing soccer
"90 % of it i spent on booze and women the rest of it i wasted"
but i like spike milligans
"all i ask for in life is the chance to prove that money doesn't make you happy"

I can't see how Fyfe gets suspended then, based on that.

I think instances like Fyfe and Naitanui's are reflex actions to change direction, not attempts to trip up their opponent.

Thanks Gekko (Gordon)

Are you going to ruin my day and claim Churchill didn't say the following either...

"I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly."

No, Churchill definitely did say that - but I'll counter with another favorite of mine from the same man.

Winston Churchill was once called upon at a dinner party to give an impromptu speech on the subject of sex.

He stood up and said "It gives me great pleasure..."

Then he sat down.




PS: ...Who's Gordon?

 

[democritus]

Looking at the current grading system it's really hard to see Fyfe getting anymore than a $1000-1500 fine. Where he was unlucky with the rule changes last year, he has been lucky with the rule changes this year.

Have to have a chuckle at the schadenfreude on the main board. Aside from showing themselves to be reactionary polnkers; it also indicates that we've finally arrived as contenders. All this talk of favouritism is a new feeling.

Gordon Gekko from Wall Street maybe?

 

[Eski3]

I am amazed at how many people have such disingenuous indignation on the main board

How anyone can legitimately believe that a man deserves to be suspended for that is beyond me. I refuse to believe that anyone deep down legitimately thinks that

 

[Arcassius]

Welcome to Australia. The land where we love the underdog so much, we rip good people down, and eat our own.

 

[Taylor]

Plenty of sad little people want to see others fail.

 

[Arcassius]

The worst part of it those same one eyed people will use it as an excuse to suggest fyfe is a dirty player / sniper, and won't ever let it go. The same way we have people blindly spouting shit about Lyon killing football. The bulldogs banner spoke of us being a bore. Ignorant pissants.

 

[Tonga Bob]

Move along. Nothing to see here...

Im surprised at that too. People want blood.
The funny thing is that these rule changes will no doubt save their own teams players eventually.

Yay can we go back to Nic Nat texting jokes again?

Just haven't found the refresh button. It is very difficult to change peoples minds when they have something already fixed in their heads.

The desperation from North fans arguing for him to get a week is priceless.

Woo hoo $1000 fine all good.
