Howatt - 3 games

[turtle27]

Reduced to 2 with an early guilty plea.

Same for Hartlett

Polo and Cogs to come straight into the middle

 

[Drunken Wookie]

Wow, I thought that guy saying Howatt did something first was just bs'ing!

 

[RichosGuns]

What did Howat do????

 

[oxx]

idgaf either way.
Howat is a young guy who is not afraid to smack a dog in the head - something we have lacked for years.

Someties dirty football is the difference between giving up and making a stand.

Great to see the way our guys seemed to be standing up for one another.

Best thing he did the entire game, in fact ranks in his top 3 over a career lacking in the lustre department.

LOL at people who say Howat can't hit a target.

Yeah, can't hit the side of Lance Whitnall with a handful of rice.

So no Johnson and Howat against the Roos.

 

[emperor]

when I saw the hartlett hit I knew there musta been something that happened earlier, not saying Howat deserved it per se but you don't floor a bloke running for the interchange bench for no reason

good to hear he might have some mongrel in him anyway, we are still lacking that...plus after the little flare up we ran all over the blues

get everyone on the angry pills!

Oh no that means hitormissendale will be back.

I'd like to know what evidence there was against Howat. The video showed Hartlett go down but not the cause. It may have just been a hip and shoulder whereas Hartlett clearly took a cheap shot. They probably used the fact that Carlton named Hartlett as concussed (even though he never left the ground or was attended to by medical staff) as evidence against Howat. Typical.

You cannot be that stupidly biased can you? Howatt smacked Hartlett in the face lets not pretend he "hip and shouldered him"

A better response would have been to say that Richmond should challenge this ruling as there was no concrete footage. Which IMO they should, but given what I've seen written about him on this board he isn't really a must have in your side. So basing on that they probably will not challenge it.

They should challenge this. The footage shown on tv tonight was very hard to make out.

Agree. Lyon said on Footy Classified tonight they should challenge it. 3 for what was shown was a joke.

I'm just saying, where's the evidence? You couldn't see a smack in the face from the footage. All you see is Hartlett go down. It was behind play so he probably deserves a suspension but what was 3 weeks based on?

Yeah! Kane Johnson was obviously pissed............

 

[Parabola]

Howat will definitely get off. no doubt about it. You can't convict someone without evidence. Heartless probably tripped on his own goofy clown feet and smacked his face in the turf. If Howat did hit him, he should've done it properly and not let the bastard walk.

The AFL tribunal did just that to Baker last season.

 

[Bazzar]

Why didnt Carlton take Hartlet off if he was "allegadly" concussed? They only had a runner go to him for 10 seconds.

Yeah I agree with you there. They have to have a witness or something because based on what you see you cannot give 3 weeks for that.

Based on what I saw at the ground though 3 weeks is fair.

I saw Hartlett trip over his shoe lace and smack his head on the turf.

Based on what I saw any suspension is ludricous

Because they were seriously undermanned remember

How could i forget

 

[AGRESSION]

I actually read on another forum that Heartless has taken the 2 weeks and Howat is appealing. Can someone please confirm if this is the case or not.
