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!
Finals, then 4 in a row!

Hmmm, I wonder!! 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.

Life is pain....... anyone who says differently is selling something.

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.
Reality always wins in the end.

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.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

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