Besides only dockers supporters, who else out there is fed up with the tribunal? i mean seriously (i know its hard to take the tribunal seriously, but we'll try) how can you give a guy 1 week for headbutting, another 1 week for punching a bloke in the scrote and then another 2 weeks for a love tap to the guts?? then only a couple weeks early a bloke only gets 3 weeks for trying to demolish a guys head with a nice big hook! what sort of example are we setting? with the current system, 2 guys could get reported for exactly the same thing with 1 guy getting 2 weeks and one getting none, depending on past convictions. I can understand the idea behind punnishing repeat offenders more harshly, but at the end of the day it simply isnt fair. maybe give repeat offenders an extra fine or something, but allowing such variation in offences, some of which are disgraceful to sport let alone football is ludicrous. although not liking to reference soccer, remember the media and world outrage when the french skipper headbutted that italian bloke to the chest?? huuuuge outcry. yet we have brad green headbutt ryan crowley directly to the face and he get a 1 week slap on the wrist. unbelievable. where are we headed? the game is seriously skiing downslope at the moment-fast. we need to stop making changes, understand that footy is a physical game, and get back to how it was 10+ years ago. Like i said, anyone other than freo supporters think that the current tribunal is a joke?
