They're just waiting on the appeals board to wake up.
Tonight, yes. They ran out of time for anyone else who wanted to get a word in.
Reminds me of married life!
Carlton QC: That was a right pretty speech sir, but I ask you what is the purpose of the "Rough Conduct" rule? The 2022 AFL Tribunal Guidelines defines the purpose of Rough Conduct as "in the interests of Player safety, the purpose of the rule dealing with high bumps is to reduce, AS FAR AS PRACTICABLE, the risk of head injuries to Players and this purpose needs to be kept firmly in mind by all Players and will guide the application of the rule".
AS FAR AS PRACTICABLE.
Excuse me I must use the restroom.

There’s a hold up because the cosmetics company Ah Chee claims he gets his concealer from, say they didn’t manufacture that product until yesterday.
Oh and Cripps’ bodyguard apparently swears he’s a really top bloke.

"They never asked Cripps if he thought it was a bump, and the judge didn't tell the jury that is was a bump, and I've got an infection, so that means it can't have been a bump"
This is just stupid

No but Cripps is heading off for a megapint.
Just a 35-minute submission for AFL counsel Nicholas Pane.
Not a lot to report. Pane said a player could contest with his eyes on the ball and still be in the "action of bumping an opponent", which of course was what Townshend disputed.
He said Cripps not being questioned whether it was a bump or not was irrelevant. He said based on the evidence given it was a matter for the Tribunal to determine whether the actions could be constituted as a bump.
"There has been no denial of natural justice."

55 posts and the standout number one.
Working tirelessly is an understatement.
Geez, all I said was he needed a few weeks in the 2's.
To be fair the wording around Rough Conduct and Front on Contact is littered with "reasonably practicable" "reasonably foresee" and all manner of subjective language that always comes down to the MRO and tribunal interpretation. If that want you to get done for it, they can make almost any incident fit into the category. If they want you to get off, it's all about how "reasonable" it is.

Could Cripps reasonably forsee that jumping into an opponent with his arm tucked in and elbow at head height would concuss the player if he hits him in the head. Sounds sensible to me.
