Toast Waite cleared by MRP

[Aphrodite]

Excellent news & Waite should never have been reported in the 1st place .........

Waite cleared

The match day report laid against Carlton’s Jarrad Waite for engaging in rough conduct against Melbourne’s Matthew Bate from Saturday’s match was assessed. The panel said that the ball was kicked out of the Carlton backline and Waite had left the ground in an attempt to mark the ball, with his arms outstretched for the ball and his eyes on the ball. The marking contest was intercepted by Bate and contact was made by Waite to Bate. The panel said that the contact made was inevitable and was not deemed to be reportable. No further action was taken.

Was never worried he would be rubbed out. Ok maybe just a little. The MRP does have a small amount of sense after all

Seriously could have gone either way, such is the lottery of the MRP these days. Great news and thanks a mill, A-Chick! Now pull your head, hips and dooks in Jarad!

Damn Vozzo even gave Bate a 50m penalty

 

[Alpha1]

Never anything in it.

No there wasn't as there was nothing else Waite could do at the time, but as Thy said it could have gone either way.

The MRP are an interesting bunch this year

well he did knock the guy out after he marked it so without the aid of the replays we have I guess it was fair. The MRP finally got one right!

Was surely never in doubt? Can't start pinging blokes for jumping for marks, even if they are Waite.

The free kick and 50 M penalty was there but not reportable. Glad reason was seen in this case.

Free kick YES, but 50m penalty NO.

 

[GordonBlue]

No freekick.. cause he marked it... had he spilled it... it shouldn't have been a freekick
No 50... that's just plain wrong

I want the Point that Bate kicked back...

Would that improve our %

Also my bad as Bate did mark it.

It sure would... it could also put us above Freo... oh wait no it won't... I still want it back

 

[olrac]

if you look at the vid wait turned to protect himself and their was head high contact. That to me is a free cause of the head high contact. Also I have a felling that the 50M was there for Waite talking back to the umpire.

 

[Jeremias]

The only thing that worried me was his past record and the fact that the game was his first back after returning from suspension.

My initial reaction to the incident was that there wasn't much in it - sure it was a free kick but the day that blokes can't jump in marking contests is the day that AFL football dies.

Ought to be dropped for giving away a 50 metre penalty for a blatant fabrication - Vozzo clearly stated on the telecast that the penalty was for "leaving the ground after Bate had marked the ball".

Why do they continually get to lie to justify their actions yet not get called up on it?
At least politicians have a limitation date.

I couldn't agree more, and I think the MRP could be on the same page given they used the words 'was not deemed to be reportable', message to the umps in there?
