Review Round 18, 2019 - Brisbane Lions vs. North Melbourne

[Brett C]

The Zorko fine is a joke, next there will be a 1000 fines each round for every bump or wrestle off the ball.

 

[Harris Specter]

Harris Cunnington would only have been fined.

 

[bato]

Christian compared it to the Ivan Soldo incident on Worpel. He failed to have his ban overturned. A little worrying.

 

[Tom14]

Lmao I'd forgotten about both of these but I don't see how what Harris allegedly did could be as bad as these incidents from Fyfe and Ablett: https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-05-13/superstars-cleared-of-high-hits-young-roo-banned

 

[Back2Back2Back]

Curious to understand how they expect to show intent and impact from Andrews if there's no video of it.

 

[Scubaveg]

Is this what happens when North fans don't have an underachieving coach to vent their anger towards?

It’s Norf not North. Otherwise known as completely irrelevant. Ship them of to Tassie and call them the devils.

Don’t know about anyone else but one of my favourite past times is watching dlanod systematically slam dunk some poor opposition scrub.

Absolutly ridiculous. Never would have happened if it was Fyfe/Abblett etc. We should challenge. Even if we don't we have shown we can cover Andrews fairly easily with Walker.

 

[lioninthesand]

haha ok.

No vision, no medical report, player kept his feet, innocuous in nature. 1 week, that makes sense.

Sounds like even a fine is a stretch.

And it coming from the field umpire, yet no free-kick paid for high contact?

Circus.

I think there was a free kick paid for high contact - larkey kicked a goal from it?

 

[Dalions]

Not sure if this has been posted anywhere before now? Haven’t had much of a chance to read to much since the game,
But, have a listen to the Gabba crowd after every single one of these goals!
Amazing!
Turn up the volume and enjoy!

I don't recall in an off the ball incident costing us a shot on goal? I'd imagine I would remember that (especially if Harris did it) but happy to stand corrected - I was fairly out of my mind most of that game LOL

 

[M Malice]

I'd bet my left testicle that there have been numerous similar incidents this season that have not even resulted in a free kick much less a 1 week suspension, and I'd bet the right one that if it was a high profile Melbourne based player there would have been no case to answer.

Michael Christian is reaching and surpassing Purple levels of flogishness.

Note- I thank Dodongo and apologize for the plagiarism.

 

[Nunez]

Just saw the footage. No way is that a one week ban. We will definitely challenge.

 

[scoman]

Where is the footage?

Just saw the footage. No way is that a one week ban. We will definitely challenge.

Link?

Michael Christian is an Idiot. He waffles around with "potential to cause damage" part, what a joke. Challenge this stupidity.

 

[FLVanLandingham]

Well way to completely bring down the mood...

That racial bs online.. zorko being stupid, and now Andrews out?!?

So Flog Christian says it was "the potential to cause injury" that resulted in the 1 week and it not being a fine, surely we could appeal and have this downgraded to a fine.

On the Zorko one, are my eyes playing up or was Zorks kicked before the grabbing of Sympkin's calf? The pundits all saying there was only the one after the grab.
