Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal - flyboy77 - 05-17-2018
i put in a comment on The Age's Peter Ryan's article yesterday - pointing out that the AFL hadn't been consistent at all (despite Ryan's assertion to the contrary) in recent weeks and how had everyone suddenly gone quiet, dead quiet, on the May incident.
Just checked then - hasn't been allowed up!

Not surprised at all by that

Hmmm, I wonder!!
Thanks Danger and good on you for looking after your fellow player in your role as pres of the players association and now defacto tribunal advisor.....
Flog.

Dangerfield should be made to stand down....no place to comment givenhis position.

Brilliant footballer but also an astute, well spoken and unbiased football person. As a Carlton person, he could have cut loose on TFS tonight. Instead, he was measured, rational and played a straight bat. Danger is a great footballer but thats about it.

Carlton football boss Andrew McKay: “I don’t think I should comment on that, and neither should Patrick.”

I like that from McKay, a very measured & controlled way of basically telling Dangerfield to STFU. A bit more of that from certain other high placed officials would be good.

Kind of the point I was trying to make.
Makes it even more of a disgrace that he had anything to say about it!

Chris Scott just on SEN. Reckons none of the touching incidents were worthy of suspension only maybe fines. Stated that there was low level contact between player and umps all the time which is not worthy of serious scrutiny. Deliberate and forceful contact is obviously a no no.

Oh my, a Scott discussing AFL decisions, gees that's strange. Wonder when he gets a "please explain"?
Sorry, my bad, the Scott's can say whatever they like, just like Clarkson ET AL.

He's actually right in what he says though
Free +50 would be sufficient for any of those in my opinion.
