Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal - LP - 05-14-2018
I fear the longer it takes to hear from the MRP the worse things will get for Ed, because if they thought it was trivial and minimal they would hand out a fine or a week off immediately.

We'll wait and see but...

He pushed the umpire, he has to go.

It has to be that way, at least a fine but most likely a week.

I doubt we can take much notice of Zero Hanger, Charlie probably needs 3 votes for protecting the umpire, and CheatsFC should send him a letter of gratitude for preventing their morons from making unintentional careless contact.
The Zero Hanger crew need to worry more about Sheedy calling for the Cheats to play like Woosha, jumping early and hitting high I presume! ;D

Charlie's one was also highlighted on Game Day yesterday...so it's out there.
Anyway we should know soon enough.

CheatsFC should be charged with bringing the game into disrepute by impersonating footballers! ;D
One thing I do not understand about modern umpiring is why they feel the need to get so close to players who are having a dispute. They can stand 3m away and do the job just as well.

There's another bizarre aspect to all this.
Obviously the AFL are trying to enforce that Umpire contact is not on...yet in all of these incidents over the last week no umpire has reported a player for making contact with him...and as far as I can see, have not even deemed it worth a free kick. ???
They know if they've been touched!

Agreed, but the AFL must consider regional and suburban umpires. No umpires no footy.
I think Charlie is fine, I think Ed has a problem.
