Nothing.
So it's not fair enough that Williams got a week, at all. If it was consistently applied across the AFL you might have an argument, but it's not.
Disagree.
Williams act was worth a week.
Fogarty's is worth 2.
Wasn't even mentioned on 360...but William's was...with footage shown. If something is wrong, it's wrong isn't it? Doesn't become less wrong because anither wrong act wasn't cited.

But 'fair' means it needs to be applied evenly.

That's true...but I see it as a separate issue and something that's rotten across umpiring and handing out penalties. But we need to hold firm on what is a crap act and what Williams did was crap as was what Fogarty did. I'd like to know what the reasoning is behind Fogarty...maybe they are still deliberating on it?
 
OMG...
Aaron Hamill... Don't want that arseh*le back at the club...
Would rather get Barker back
Why is he an arseh*le? John Elliot was the arseh*le! Hamill had every right to leave after Elliot embarrassed him publicly at the Best and Fairest. I was there and it was appalling!

I'm sick of copping it from both ends for crap acts.

Why are we held to a standard that others routinely get away with?

I say get into the muck. Fight fire with fire. Get your retaliation in first.

Sick of the play the right way bullshit. Good way to keep losing because no one else limits their players in this way.

Take the ****ing shackles off. And hammer anyone who sits under a high ball. Elbows in backs of heads . Knuckles across scalps. Go full Liberatore SNR. No one get sanctioned for doing it to us.

When was the last time anyone was suspended against us?

You're assuming that Fev will come back and all of a sudden lead the players into trouble like some kind of pied piper. You're assuming a lot about Fev and also our players.
He did though, originally, with Eddie, Yaz and Andrew Walker getting caught up in his gambling and drinking antics. Plus probably others.

Yes it was over a decade ago, but he is still an addict, swapping from gambling to ordering takeout recently. The habit is there, I hope he gets better but I'd rather not have him around our young players just yet, unless as just a kicking coach (in which case I'd say get Sav Rocca back at the club first)
 
Those specific examples but are just one on ones that happen every game. The Melbourne one was a pack so of course there was going to be multiple players.
Gotta disagree, the examples given for Weitering and Jones could have been taken from any game this year. Our defensive effort has stunk all year, and clearly there’s issue with the game plan, or player effort to apply defensive pressure reliably. In fact, I’d say outside or Weitering, Jones and Plow, all players are guilty.

But that's the issue we've been talking about regularly isn't it?
We want our defenders to play tight one on one and stop giving their opposition players easy marks and easy handball chains. But we also want out defenders to drop off their man and help intercept too. So what do you do when the forward you are marking is 15m away from the next forward?
Do you guard space, do you stay tight?

We should be playing a +1 defensively and collectively, don't run forward of the contest until it looks certain that we will gain possession

Rinse and repeat
