What about kossies possible suspension!!! he was "let off" for his contact with umpires, and was penalised for something as trivial as the lovetap. its ridiculous. However, if we lose him, and because of hudgies hammy, we are again down two MAJOR players out of our lineup. this game is MAKE OR BREAK. win this, and we can win the flag; lose, and we will have serious problems about beating a top 6 team.
 
As much i would like Koschitzke out as i follow North, absolutely ridiculous to get a week for that. Dont worry Saints will appeal and he will play, if common sense prevails anyway.

Unfortunately the points system will still have him over 100 even if the appeal succeeds due to previous incident.

I dont think so, if you read the paper, which you obviously havent, youd know that kosi got given 103 point something points. i personally dont think he'll play but i hope they do appeal. even if he gets suspended however its not the end of the world coz hopefully Bj and Ackland will return. Ackland especially would fill the void of a 2nd ruckman and extra forward option

He got 103 points however had a carry over from a previous suspension. This puts him somewhere in the 130's.

I agree however that it is ridiculous if he is not able to play because of a soft tap. What is our great game coming to?: :confused:

All they have to do is downgrade one or two aspects and he's right.

Not sure how accurate this is, however this is fromthe article on the AFL.com

Three to face Tribunal

The AFL Tribunal will be kept busy on Tuesday night, with St Kilda's Justin Koschitzke, Port Adelaide's Byron Pickett, and Fremantle's Des Headland all deciding to contest their suspensions handed down by the match review panel.

Koschitzke, who has been in career-best form, was offered a one match suspension for striking Geelong's Joel Corey. The Saints are not risking a heavier suspension by contesting this charge, as the tall forward could not have received a reprimand for pleading guilty, because of a previous suspension.....

As i said earlier. Even given the fact that the Kangas play the saints this w/end, i still think he should be cleared.

No, he got 103 after everything was calculated including previous incidents because he gave a guilty plea. please stop talking crap
 
ok ok, jesus get off your high horse xavier! I was simply posting what I thought was correct, I really don't care that I'm wrong, but don't shove it down my throat.

Hookkaaaay!!!!

Seems i was actually a bit wrong.

He received 125 points which rose to 137.5 because of a previous suspension. IF he pleaded guilty it would still be 103. meaning he would have been suspended even with a guilty plea.

"Sorry for being so way out of line" :rolleyes:

Don't get too precious Xavier...

I think if you read back through the posts, most roos fans were in favour of him contesting the cahrge and getting off.
