If it's true that Hawkins got two weeks and Duncan for one I fully support the cats fans being pissed off. Bullshit decisions.
Hawkins only got two, because he had loading from other brain fades. Would normally have just been one and given Merrett was also rubbed out, its clear now that anyone who punches at all will be suspended. No cure for dumb.

Duncan though? Papley dived.

Mrp system is a joke. There should be no penalty for challenging (disguised as a discount for an early plea)
No way is what Hawkins did worth two, or duncan/zorko/merrett worth a week.

Then there's the whole rule change mid season thing

Whats wrong with playing a final at Spotless ?

We had to last year - the stadium was close to but not full capacity - and I would have thought over half the crowd was Bulldogs - and that was a PF not a QF

If the giants had more than 5000 members it might be more of an issue.

PS: I complained last year that they were going to play a PF there, but my doubts were proved wrong.
It's just too small. It was a great ground to watch at and the atmosphere was unbelievable but playing it at a 22k stadium would be too small.

I've never seen Richmond supporters so excited in my lifetime, they'll be coming out in force and the Giants surely have more fans than last year.

If they want to keep playing finals there, there needs to be a significant upgrade. Up to 40k at least

I've thought this too, but then everyone would challenge and everything would go straight to the tribunal. Would cost the AFL a shit load more.

And the clubs a whole lot more seeing as they hire a QC pretty much every time. And it would waste everyone's time on a monday or tuesday night.

3 cases and it goes till 9 or 10pm some nights.

I'm sick of grizzling about how a multi-billion dollar industry can't execute something like this with consistency of purpose and interpretation.

So this week I'm just happy Mumford got rubbed out.
Should allow precedence in evidence - that would stuff them up :p

It was soft but everyone should know by now not to punch. Merrett's didn't look real bad either and he copped a week. Suspect it is the week they finally took a stand.
Merrett's issue was that he hit him with a closed fist, doubt they appeal even with his good record as it seems the MRP are taking a stance to help get rid of that aspect of the game.

Think so? The AFL are not accountable to anyone but the dollar. They just make it up as they go.
Yeah, probably wouldn't fix things but it would be interesting to see the defence bring up how cases in the past have been dealt with - or not dealt with. And it would highlight bad decisions by the MRP / tribunal.

Gotta love the tossers on GWS board.
They spell it out that they :-

Don't want your opinions
Don't care for your comments on their team
Don't respect us as supporters (in fact hate us)
And if you are not pi55ing in their pockets you are deemed disrespectful.

In summary, sycophants only welcomed.

YET, they mock this thread as being cowardly. The same tossers that report you for saying anything against their plastic entity.

We know you read this Chooky, (you read every single article on BF you sad little boring cave dweller). I thought I'd dedicate a post to you BokBokBokbokkeek (that's a chook) , and Swampmeter his alias. It will vindicate your opinion we are cowards, yet render you helpless to block it (cos in this thread I can almost say what I like)

You are the most ignorant, self entitled, hypocritical poster in entire BF realm. Plugger35 comes close, but he doesn't masquerade pretending to be an intellectual. Your side kick The Horse (GG) isn't far behind. You continually spout off that we are pretenders. Well Chooky, reverse the 9.19 result when we played you, ummm, we are on equal points. Overrated team of "me's" who will be found out yet again in September. Plastic melts when heat is applied. Whine about injuries all you like. The only thing you are winning this year is our "sobrave" hashtag coz the flag will be won by a champion team, not a team of (self annointed) champions

Aaahhhh. Bloody good therapy that.

Sad for Rocket, I've always liked him, gave it a good crack but he was stuck in an unfortunate situation.

It will be interesting who the replacement is. John Barker and Stewart Dew are the favourites again, maybe this is the one Barker finally gets. Dew never wants to leave Sydney so I'm not sure he'll take it.

Brett Ratten would be one I'd be looking for. Did a decent job at Carlton, plus you'd think he'd have learn from his mistakes and added a few strings to his now during his Hawthorn tenure. Think his ready for a second crack at it but he might not want to move interstate either.
