BOG tonight IMO. Along with Corey and Kelly.

Happy with the win but very disappointed re his pending suspension.

This past month he has provided the spark and grunt we have missed up forward for months. Can we beat the Hawks without him?

 

[rooie]

best case 1 down to 0.
worst case 2 down to 1.

 

[Jmac2225]

Absolutely critical player even at his age. He is a football genius.

Really need him to get off at the MRP.

best case 1 down to 0.
worst case 2 down to 1.

1 down to 0

 

[Paul Kersey]

Sorry for intruding but here's a comparison with Franklin's hit. I don't think he should go.

 

[RegHickeyStand]

An amazing player. That they are playing hardball with his future is amazing.

 

[BigKegs]

High contact was there but you can see he made contact with the entire side of his body whereas franklin made contact with his shoulder. Gray got up quickly as well so 1 down to 0 is realistic.

He is Mr September enough said.

 

[Sewer de Lance]

Soon as his feet left the ground, the MRP were salivating at the mouth. Those pussies at AFL house love nothing more then rubbing out players for a good ol' fashion bump. Will get a minimum of 2 games.

If there is any justice, or transparency in the mrp. He is off.


Though, we know how they are with hawks players over the cats..should get off as it was really nothing in it, but, because it's a Geelong player 2 weeks

Coincidence that both players that were hit were wearing the number 9?

 

[Paul Kersey]

I think insufficent force is what may come into play.

No mate I think he's gone. He got him head high = goner!

 

[Selective Retention]

2 down to 1 I fear.

 

[Biggy_Boy]

What could've been had he not been left on the bench for the first half of the Freo game.

Chappy's feet being off the ground won't help him. Maybe Negligent. Medium. High.

Yeah, that's about right, I think.
The feet off the ground may bump it up from Low to Medium Impact.

 

[mac_cat]

Surely tonight's game alone was enough to give Chappy another year's contract?

 

[Jonny27]

Hopefully low impact , negligent, high contact which would allow him to get off. Franklin was given medium impact so it's unlikely he will get low impact.

 

[Micksy]

Tee Hee! Too bad the MRP can't use precedent! They'd have him rubbed out for a match. But now they have to grade it on it's own merits. The fools!

 

[BringBackTomFloyd]

I agree. I felt cheated when he tossed the coin in his 250th game in the green vest. Imagine how he felt. All our missed opportunities up forward could have had chappy on the end of them and we know how clinical he is in front of the sticks. Very rarely but sometimes our match committe decisions can cost us games. Hard to say if it would have changed things but Chappy on from the get go last week may have just turned things. We will never know!!!

He is gone.....

Should be permanent forward, will get lots of goals out of him

 

[rocker_oz33]

Should never of been the submarine last week.

 

[hamG]

Geelong player, 3 down to 2.
