Paul Roos is so naive

[Cincinnatus]

Listening to him on On The Couch he is so naive when it comes to Suspensions.

He wants to compare totally different incidents to make a case that Tex should be gone for a month if Nyhuis gets 3+.

Its ridiculous.

In the real legal world sometimes a killer will go to jail for less time than an armed robber or rapist.

You don't compare the crime in front of you to another totally different one to establish a sentence.

He has embarrassed himself on national TV.

Also interesting that he used 2 incidents that happened against Crows players where the other guy got a week like Tex insinuating that they either shouldve gone none or Tex should be more.

Its so silly.

And then his little whinge that its all about the result- WELL DUH!

if you punch a bloke and knock him out, its assault. If you punch a bloke and kill him it can be murder or manslaughter. Same action, different crime depending on the result.

So Roos basically wants people who commit assault to be tried as murderers because he is a ******* idiot without any capacity to create a logical thought.

On the Couch has really sucked this year. Browny reckons he runs the show and talks over the top of everyone and spouts rubbish (omg, play Selwood FF). Roos hasnt had a decent idea all year and Lyon sits there like he is deciding which of the blokes around him's Mrs he should put one through.

Healy is the only decent one and needs a new crew. Its that bad that I would prefer Sheehan and Walls over these buffoons.

I agreed with Roos re the Tex incident. He ran past the ball and took a guy out.

Really ordinary stuff from a captain he should be setting an example.

Very lucky to get one so stop the attack on Roos.

For the record, i think Roos spends too much time drinking in the bath.

And thats fine if you agree it should have been more weeks. If Roos had said more weeks just based on its merits or pulled up actual similar examples then itd be ok.

But when he spouts nonsense like 'its not the action, its the result' as if thats some foreign result then he looks dumb.

I dont agree with your criminal law analogy. Its.football we are.talking about.

The intent needs to be judged. Tex intended to put that guy into next week but he screwed up.

The MRO has been even worse this year.

Hard to argue with Roos that Walker should've been charged with intentional rather than careless.
He was looking right at Tuohy and got him high.

Roos was just pointing out the inconsistencies in penalties like
Michael Walters getting the same penalty for a punch to the gut.

Bryce Gibbs getting fined and then let off on appeal is another example of Christians
work. Should never have been fined for that. The same penalty as Sam May received for
punching Shaun Higgins to the guts off the ball....outrageous.

Another fine was overturned at the on appeal last week as well.
