North being cheap and not wanting to put up the $10k. Might need that money for a prayer room or a safe room.

 

[Frank Thring]

This club is really starting to shit me

 

[Liam Boy]

idk I think it's pretty clear from the AFL's response that they won't accept any of the legitimate avenues to invalidate this ruling. cos they said so. Don't see what appealing would accomplish

I'm with you Frank by bugbear is LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

 

[TheKanga]

Absolute joke
Archer probably would of still got 3 weeks if he received a broken leg

The North tax...

Pussies. Do something interesting North. Appeal and get angry.

So over it already.

Haha starting? Mate. At the end of last year, I was wishing I’d chosen Fitzroy.

 

[itchyscratch]

Imagine if that had been a Daicos with a Brownlow on the line who fell over Cleary?

Would never have been reported and would have received the free

 

[Makeshift Park]

Only one round in and I’m already feeling like I could do with a break from this.

Appeal North, show some balls for once. We just get walked over by the AFL all the time and do nothing. No wonder we are insignificant to everyone , We are just a weak club

And argue what? Unless the tribunal makes some sort of error in the proceedings or applying the law, then there's not much to usually appeal on to get it overturned. Lawyers would likely be advising there is no legal basis to challenge the ruling.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Been a consistent attitude since the Ziebell suspension.

FIFA is less corrupt than the afl.

 

[gokangas]

So his mistake was he approached the contest running too fast. What the fugg is happening to our game?

Do you think Collingwood wouldnt appeal it if it was Daicos. Then again if it was Daicos it wouldnt have gone to the tribunal in the first place. Thats how corrupt the AFL is

 

[Rooboy1708]

Is it me or did Cleary change direction into archer

 

[the_cleaner]

So what would have happened if Archer was badly injured , imo nothing

what would the outcome be if archer had both his legs taken out and the bulldog player got up and walked away? is archer still in trouble then?

 

[Roostorm]

Just heard …lm sick of the mro suspending players based on their slow mo replay…..
So the only reason this is different to the other frees we saw given on the weekend was due to the head knock instigated by the sliding player…..bad luck of Jackson did his knee or broke his legs….
Not surprised…but bloody annoyed…..guess we will have a similar outcome during the season involving a big name player…who will get off…time will tell

 

[amaz199]

Bailey Fritsch has breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Our supporters aren’t weak but people at the club ,who work on our behalf,need to show some leadership and do something significant imo. He’s the son of the Shinboner of the Century for f$&@ sake. Has done nothing wrong or sinister at all. Just do it

Guys I am absolutely serious about this.

If Arch's "suspension" is upheld, we gather at AFL HQ in our North gear and we call the TV stations and Fox Footy and we get them to come down and interview us.

No pitch forks or torches, but we're bloody angry.

This is as WRONG AS IT GETS. We can't allow this to be confirmed and go without a reaction from our supporters. We spread the word on Facebook and get thousands down there if we have to.

I'm NOT joking. Please join me. I'll go by myself if I have to.

The following night, 530pm, after the tribunal and only IF they CONFIRM the suspension.

I was going to do this. Seriously.

Now I find myself feeling depressed. Like there is no justice and this game is run by corrupt officials.

Like most of the rest of the world.

The only thing I feel like doing is ****ing over the AFL every single chance I get but supporting NMFC tenfold. My loyalty is to them, not the ****ing AFL.

Backs to the wall stuff for us. This may have a silver lining. In that way.

But yeah.... all I feel is very, very sad
