MRO vs Plastic Chair in a battle of wits for the ages.

No contest. The inanimate object has got this.

Cant find the thread on the main boards Umpires and MRP.

It was getting heated so maybe deleted.

I would like a fair and just hearing and outcome.

But we all know the chance of that is as likely as the AFL going one off season without changing the rules.

Starting the MRP thread prep now. Any boss who sacks anyone for not turning up tomorrow is a bum.

What time does the Tribunal usually sit by the way?

What time does the Tribunal usually sit by the way?

Eastern Standard Time.

I still cant help but feel Michael Christian came up with his penalty assuming the Essendon player was hurt. And then when he was cleared by the medical report, he altered his findings so a penalty could stand regardless.

If you want to know why the Tribunal threads have such a fond place in the hearts of Eagles fans, a sample of some of our favourites:

Begin with the big Q stick, charged with a knee in the back and cleared by a frame by frame picture created by a bigfooty poster, referenced in the case by our QC

MRP / Trib. - Q Stick given a week by the MRP - let off by tribunal

Wow just wow. Can not believe he got cited for attempting to smother the ball. Eye for the ball only. This great game of ours is turning into ballet.

In 2015 you had the explosive Chris Masten biting incident, as jaw mechanic experts stared down lying testimony and barnacle Suban to get a strange result

Game Day - Tribunal- Chris Martyr v Guys That Gave Cooney 1 Week

Subiaco Oval- 5.30pm, Sunday The crowd files out of the stadium, many of them listless and disappointed. The Eagles fan were jubilantly celebrating, in the restrained and dignified way that they are known for. Surely nothing could dent the celebrations now? Dog Silvagni will be suspended...

I'm thinking 3. Not sure what on earth he was thinking.

Somewhere along the line in 2012 Shuey got charged with elbowing Lindsay Thomas in the groin, and our defence was basically to call him a diving bitch. Which he is and was. Can’t track down the thread though.

 

[MIKE85]

Yeah I don’t get how it can be medium impact when there was no lingering injuries. He did sit out the rest of the game, but maybe he’s just a soft cube?

Hopefully he goes before Sonny too if they challenge, because we know the tribunal can’t let two players off on the same night.

 

[Cuzz09]

Oh well if he gets a week then he can have a lovely rest.

Hopefully walters somehow goes mental in there headbutting people and they double his suspension.

I think the AFL love giving us the bad decisions because we don't often appeal, screw them we should make it a point to argue every suspension from now on.

Clayton Oliver squirting, with Bachar Houli feat. Waleed Ali on the undercard. Genuine contender for best night in MRP history.

 

[Trouto]

I think the sticking point, the one we will win it with, will be the "high contact" charge.
As McGovern didnt even touch his head, how could it be high contact?
