Typical Freo scum.

Are you all pathological liars?

Surprised the Purple Rabble didn't present you as a 'credible' witness as Barry Kirkwood wasn't a good liar.
keep crying you little sook.

If baker didn't do the act then he would have nothing to answer for. You can bitch and moan all you want (and I know you will) but the bloke has a bad history and it has caught up with him.

Didn't think I'd say this, but Go Eagles!

A Freagle :eek:

I'm sure you're used to jumping teams this time of year.

Just a reminder : St Kilda 19.12 (126) d Purple Rabble 14.12 (96)

Try winning ON the field for a change rather than sooking to the AFL. Even your joke of a coach implied you were dudded because one of your players was missing for half the game.

Poor losers, poor liars and worst of all you are dobbers.

Barry Kirkwood you will not be forgotten. :mad:

Im sure big bad Barry Kirkwood will watch his back when Baker is around. I dont think Fremantle sook to the AFL often, seems you are making stuff up!
 
weak Job Baker, pity you didn't break farmers jaw.

of course if you did he'd be home and his wife would be in danger of another beating, but on the bright side, if you did break his jaw players would would be safe from the eye gouger.

How did the Aints go the previous week? ;)

It's not Baker he has to worry about and not just at AFL games.

The tribunal accepted he was spinning shit to get a bloke rubbed out.

Lowest of low in football circles and why am I not surprised he works for the Purple Rabble?

lol

Try taking your head out of your arse and try looking at the facts.

FFS, your club is that low they tried to implicate Rob Harvey as the aggressor when your Wife-beating scumbag decided to attack him.

He ran into a bloke.

Assualt? Fair dinkum are you for real?

What Headland did was assult. He got off. A court would not accept "someone poking fun at my tat" as a reason to assult someone.

Of course the (W)AFL did. :rolleyes:
Oh ok, he just ran into him did he? Sorry, my bad. Yes yes, in that case; AFL you're a joke and so on....
I can also do one of these;:rolleyes:
 
"The club has appealed on several grounds, including the ground that, having accepted Steven Baker's account of the incident, which was supported by other witnesses, the tribunal should not have found Baker guilty or suspended him,"

His admission that he deliberately blocked Farmer and thats their grounds for appealing. Not sure what the other "several grounds" are but they have to be better than this. So are they saying that because he admitted to the reckless act that he can't be found guilty?? looks like a waste of 5k to me.

If they had a half decent legal team Baker could have just said
A. I was watching the ball and we ran into each other
B. Said he couldn't remember b/c of concussion
Either way he would have got off. If I was a Saints fan I'd be pissed at whoever advised baker not the AFL. Once he admitted making the contact he was gone because you can't really argue with the high contact, severe impact or behind play.

How about the fact it was an accidental head clash. Is that not a defence?

1 The AFL brought a charge against Baker with Witnesses

2 The Witnesses were found to be untruthfull and their accounts disregarded

3 The AFL Tribunal then adjusts and changes the Charge mid tribunal and convicts Baker by his own admission

Now see at end of point 2 in any tribunal in Australia would throw the case out. At point 3 no Tribunal would adjust the charge.


You can certainly argue that the proceedings were unfair and hopefully the Club goes to a court to enforce this.
 
JD

If the player is injured as a result of the action it is reckless and that is the problem in Bakers case. It is the same as it being made clear to players that smashing a player in a tackle when his arms are pinned is reckless.

Yes the game is soft, by then again when Rocca got outed for a perfect hip and shoulder where contact to the head was caused by the player slipping and Rocca being taller, it was pretty obvious that anything that results in injury to the head that is 'outside' the rules (Rocca did hit high) will result in suspension.

Shepherding off the ball is illegal, once he admitted that he was gone.

This post sums it up perfectly :thumbsu:

Interesting that it has not been responded to yet by JD and other sainters who are up in arms about this.

In the Rocca case we had footage to view, here we had nothing but differing accounts from eye witnesses. Baker admitted to shepharding off the ball so what? That's a free kick to Freo at the time, it is not a 7 week sentence. How about when Stephen King smashed Jeff White's face in with a kick, how many weeks did he get for that?
 
On the bright side at least St Kilda are finally developing a rivalry with someone.

Seems appropriate that it's Fremantle.

No, what Baker admitted to was an illegal act.

Forget about no footage, as soon as Baker admitted this, he was gone because an injury to the head occured from said illegal act.

We are going round in circles here.

PS Its not a 7 week sentence, its 4.

BINGO!

I doubt whether Baker will get off given that he admitted to a shepherd 30-50m off the ball. I am sure he did not realise that this was in fact illegal when he admitted to it. He has spent so much time bending the rules, the distinction between what is illegal and what is legal must be so blurred in his head...
