Play Nice Was that Gaffs last game for WC?

[evo]

Can't wait for whately to get his snatch Sandy over it

you know he will.

 

[Benji85]

I think it was worse than Bugg and Lewis hit (Lewis especially, 3 was manifestly inadequate), but at least it's done now. Hopefully it's a chapter that can be closed until Damien Barrett has a 'burying the hatchet' catch up in a decade...

Hope WC appeal

That would be spectacular. The defense was so good the first time I reckon he'll walk away from that appeal with double the suspension.

 

[DivideandMultiply]

Should the Police intervene with other assaults? Come on, we literally wouldn't have any contact sports left.

That's not true.

Context applies to amicable consent. How one would define reasonable expectation of force would be different between say an AFL game and MMA match.

Very stiff to get 8 weeks for an accidental jaw punch. Given he got up and said he didn’t mean to punch Brayshaw in the mouth I was sure Gaff would get a three game reduction.

 

[Magus]

8 weeks....

how is this worse than Halls?

What part of "he's eating through a straw" is hard to comprehend?

 

[gandaal]

If WC fans are going to point out suspensions from the distant past, why is Gaff only getting 8 when Greg Williams got 9 weeks for touching an umpire?

 

[Belnakor]

8 weeks....

how is this worse than Halls?

it was worse than solomon who also got 8.

 

[Cmarsh]

8 weeks is fair. Tribunal has got it right IMO.

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

Obviously only a public beheading will please the mob but 8 weeks is a fair suspension for breaking a jaw outside of play

And dislodging 4 teeth which will require years of treatment.
Yep 8 weeks seems fair

 

[DivideandMultiply]

He accidentally hit him in the jaw punch theory. Yep got it

It is different.

 

[projectv]

Good decision. At least now everyone can move on.

Hopefully West Coast lose first week and make the grand final then he'll only miss round 1 for us.

 

[Blue1980]

Cue the feral West Coast supporters screeching VFL VFL

Even though part of his suspension will be served at a Victorian club?

 

[outabounds]

I think 5-6 would have been fairer for someone who has an outstanding record, looks like the tribunal was also caught up in the witch hunt.

Anyone who uses the word “fair” is a ****wit

I want the eagles and the afl to both appeal

 

[tugga]

Gaff's defence arguing for three was mind blowing.

 

[kranky al]

it was worse than solomon who also got 8.

Both those players werent at their first dance.

Pretty hard to compare seeing as its different eras with different methods of calculating penalties.

 

[Elixuh]

8 weeks far too low and inadequate. Hope Brayshaw enjoys living with false teeth for the rest of his life. Should have been 12.

Just when i think you couldnt come across any stupider than you already do KC13, you post something like this.

 

[Sir_Loin]

It is different.

I know it’s different I left out the word “jaw” but in the context of the back and forth I was having with the worlds greatest lawyer I thought he/she would acknowledge that

Pretty sure you just did it for us.

12 seems right after hearing how ****ed his teeth are.

 

[FISTO]

8 weeks seems like the bare minimum acceptable sentence.

fair go, but fair enough.
