So you're saying the tribunal never makes a mistake.:rolleyes:

How about accepting the fact that Shane struck him wich is a fact IMO. You yourself have said he git him with a lettuce leaf. The level of force and whether it was an open hand or fist is the issue I think you are suggesting that the tribunal got wrong. If it is so blatantly wrong then Shane and the club will challenge that and he will get off.They can get you to be their star witness as to the question of the open hand being used.
 
This comes to mind :P

Danny that shove to the guts happens in every game. Did the offended player go down, did he leave the ground, could he not take his kick. None of the above. it was a dodgy report . Apparently Percy Johnson on radio said it was a bullshit report. Anyway thats my opinion and if you don't like it ,tough kitties.:)

However it's his combined history and this shit that just proves how stupid his drafting was. He's old, been in jail, came to the club with injury, and quite clearly hasn't learnt to pull his head in when he's been drinking. People on here want to deflect his behaviour and compare it to Cuzzy Bro or whatever, but the double standards here are basically a self-parody.

One of the dumbest ******* drafting choices we have ever made. The bloke is bonafide not ready for AFL football.

To be fair, we thought we'd be challenging. We drafted him on the premise that if we were top 8 going into the bye (which let's be honest, most of us thought we would be during the draft last year) that he could come in and give an extra dimension. They drafted Yarren for some X-factor type play that would possibly replace Mayne or give Walters more of a shot in the midfield. IMHO at the time it was a smart decision. Who else got picked after him?

I am also one of those bleeding heart socialists that believe in rehabilitation and second chances. He was by all intents and purposes no longer considered a threat to society and a solid contributing member of the WAFL community. For me, any team that at the time thought they were contending was worth the risk V reward on this pick.

I've passed Mayne walking in Freo of an evening with his girlfriend post match. There is nothing wrong with going out post match, they are citizens and have the right to do so. Yarran might have been out at a restaurant, could very well have been sober.

I am fairly sure the authorities will turn a blind eye for non citizens who are in the country with a valid visa.

I agree with this on both counts but where I struggle is that us as mug punters are allowed to believe our list was in great shape and a couple extra players would see the premiership ours but the recruiting staff and coaches should have realised from mid last year we weren't that good, Fyfe carried us till he got injured. It's turned out to be poor list management.

SSSSHHHHHHH......

You are not allowed to say things like that on here.....the apologists will come and threatened you with their collection of Nick Suban's sweaty underwear or Ross Lyon's cheeky phrasebook that they cherish so much.

Of course it's poor list management/planning but while we have so many deluded supporters making excuses for such atrocious football and celebrating losses so they can take pride in 'tanking' for picks, nothing will change.

I choose to think that with Fyfe, Sandi, MJ and Mundy available for the entire season and the inclusion of Bennell then we would likely be contenders for finals. And I choose to believe that without anyone misleading me at all.
 
I'll share my police interaction story. It was overseas, sitting on an empty train station (because I get places early) with my ticket in hand looking over the way to the border.

A huge policeman storms over to me in his scary paramilitary looking gear and starts telling me off. I'm not bilingual but my dad has taught me enough to understand someone saying "you can't be here" and to return serve with "yes, I can, I have a ticket!" - that goes back and forth a few times - to which he starts thinking about picking me up and carrying me off when he asks if I speak english and tells me that they need to search and clear the train when it crosses the border and I'm in a restricted area during that time.

He showed amazing patience with a brat.
 
One of my mates as a teenager had a long running feud with the local cops. They once gave him a ticket for having his arm out the window, and then when they drove off the cop in the passenger seat hung his own arm out the window to really rub it in to him. He was a massive smart arse and a bit of a rev head plus not the sharpest of tools (it's a battle you can't win so seriously why bother..) but middle aged men in a position of authority doing that to a 18 year old is disgusting.

I was also a smart ass teenager. I deserved everything I got and then some. (much to my parents embarrassment) I find most police quite tolerant individuals. Undertrained, undervalued and not backed up enough by a failed judicial system yes. But I would say most joined the force to make the world a better place.

You are entitled to believe that and I don't believe anyone was misleading, they just judged it wrong and hind sight which is what I'm working on proves it. Other than Bennall all the rest did play at seasons start and we were still losing. So what I'm trying to say IMO the recruiting staff and coaches got it wrong and again IMO we should woke up to it last season as soon as Fyfe was not at his best due to carrying injuries that we were not going to win it this year.
