Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal - LP - 05-17-2018
One problem for the players is the change in the panel, Gleeson is presenting the AFL case, and he's old school legal along with Kellam and Green.
I got the feeling that our club thinks Charlie has a chance to have the appeal dismissed, but that Ed will have the appeal upheld!

The AFL originally tried to get the cases heard together but that wasn't allowed
The joint announcement of the decision was probably a concession.

Here it comes
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal - Lods - 05-17-2018
Charlie Curnow evidence clear saw umpire and spoke to him and had contact with him. But took place while he was trying to break up potential melee. Open to consider his actions as inadvertent.
Cannot be said Tribunal decision was so unreasonable.
Appeal dismissed.

Bet Ed gets a week, or has his fine increased.
Might be a while!
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal - Lods - 05-17-2018
"a few seconds ago
Ed Curnow appeal. Video demonstrates clearly concession was honest and well based. But in those circumstances not other conclusion reasonable that contact was intentional.
Appeal upheld"

"Gleeson QC for appeal:
- no scope for automatic suspension to be applied
- in the guidelines is included in serious acts of misconduct ... not as serious as some of those charges, but sits in this category for a good reason, a very serious matter
- minimum sanction should be a one-week suspension"
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal - LP - 05-17-2018
Gleeson wants a week.
Makes an assumption about Ed's state of mind, Gleeson calls it a brain fade!
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal - Lods - 05-17-2018
"Gleeson:
- it was just a brainfade. he touched him, he meant to"

Ch.7 News. Charlie clear, Ed guilty. Still deliberating the penalty.
