Fire-station commitments?
Rumour AFL not happy with Tex criticism of MRO. Sanction could loom.

And the sycophant commentators play the “but he’s a good bloke” line and the safe AFL rhetoric.

Freezing, no footy on Wednesdays
Can we change the thread title to “Footy Classified not happy with….”
No one else appears to be to that bothered about it.

How did I miss this? Shocking. Dog act. Shame on Luke Hodge forever.

I remember watching this live. I was so angry. He got two games for it (the final two games of the regular season), but it should have been way more.

Lol, I was just thinking that. Getting mightily late in the week for old Scoopy No Sources to get this one right as well.
The Asterisk strikes again!

if he was getting a sanction, he would have had it yesterday at the latest
Exactly. Most of the footy fraternity was in agreeance with what Tex said except for the ones who can't let go of the past.
Well, McClure fooled me, should have known he'd make it up. Guess it was just me thinking surely he wouldn't make things up twice.
Or
The AFL aren't happy and told McClure this, but because everyone in the media greed with Tex, the AFL has an image issue and decided this is best to simply sweep it under the carpet, rather than provoke the media into presenting the ever growing mountain of evidence of Richmond getting favourable tribunal decisions. Which really would have created a huge controversy. The AFL maybe dumb but its not that dumb.

The AFL also know that Tex is right. They don't want to draw attention to it.
To be honest, i'm leaning more to McClure made it up and the AFL just didn't care.

McClure's storytelling defeats our Victorian persecution complex every time
Jesus. Eyes on the player, deliberate bump to head. Disgusting. Should have been given more than 10 weeks.

We know Rowie looks at this forum. Even when supposedly working.
If Caro is on the program tonight, can you ask her what she is more confident in:
1. Mclure's camp reporting
2. Mclure's Tex sanction
3. Anne Hatchard will sign for Port

5AA - Caro is so poorly researched (surprise surprise).
Tex was suspeneded for a tackle years ago, she was banging on the only time Tex has been suspended was for racism and that his Cotchin comment was poor because it was having a sly dig at his 6 games for racism.
Rowe and Leith (as usual) failed to correct her, how come numpties on BF know basic facts and these so called experts are clueless.

It was painful. Then gabs on about Vic bias giving her a massive free kick.
Pretty sure he was suspended before or after that incident, with one of them he was penalised even more for having a bad record.
I think his point was that he, or most players, would get games for kicking someone (not literally 4 games). Certain players keep getting off because they are stars and their record stays clean because it's always a first offence since the AFL gives them the benefit of the doubt while a player with a bad record would get many weeks, these guys would have bad records if the AFL applied the rules equally.
