MRP / Trib. 2017 MRP/ Carlton Tribunal News & Reports

[BeligerentBlue]

I cant remember the last time i had any sort of faith in the MRP, they have been a disgrace for decades.
I dont even know exactly why you need a complete pony show at the tribunal when the act is fully captured on video from 4 angles. The MRP would be better served by me alone in an office with a tv screen.

PM and some guy from Channel bankrupt.

Is this unprecedented? Very strange

 

[El Topo]

I'm not defending the tribunal....I'm saying politicians and media personalities have nothing to do with it.

The tribunal has always been political, it's why the MRP with it's bizarro legalism was introduced after 2005.

Where was Alex silvagni when we needed him he would have fixed Houli up the old fashioned way

Sorry I must apologise for my earlier posts I didn't realise people were serious about character refs being actually used in the tribunal. That's not great.

 

[BeligerentBlue]

Lewis says we weren't in the room and dont know what was discussed. Did they even hear from lamb?

 

[passmark]

Character refs should have got it from 5 to 4 .

Lol and the AFL proves it's a complete farce once again.
You're a decet bloke so if you king hit someone and they die all good.

 

[Quazza]

Holy shit .... farce

Can someone tell me what he would've been offered for intentional, high, high under the MRP grading system?

 

[HARKER]

Have we the balls to challenge the findings?
Can we even do it? If we could, we should.

Holy shit .... farce

You know the path it's likely to lead down.

 

[BeligerentBlue]

The fix was in from the night before

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Anyone see what Clayton Oliver just said to the tribunal? "It was a cheap shot but I probably shouldn't have fallen. I was scared."

 

[bigm386]

Oh and if I hear one more ****wit from the AFL dribble shit about how much they want to protect the head. Player safety rah rah.

Ill lose my shit

 

[AB_Blue]

What a crock of shit.....it was a 3 week penalty every day of the week

 

[Smiley43]

Having Waleed as a character witness should have increased the penalty not reduced it!

 

[MitchRobinson12]

What a joke on the Houli decision, could say a lot of things but I'll bite my tongue.

 

[GoBlues!]

The AFL has sent a clear message tonight. If you can prove you are a good bloke .... and don't look at the player you are striking then .... go for it!!! Welcome cack to the old haymaker days ......


WHAT UTTER TRIPE.

The real injustice here MC is the beard got off without even a warning.

Seriously the AFL needs to take a ****ing good hard look at itself. I thought the head was supposed to be sacrosanct. It was a deliberate hit to the head and severe impact should've been min 3 weeks. Message here is the AFL doesn't really give a **** about players welfare, and takes more notice of irrelevant character references of the attacker than the consequences of their reckless action.

 

[Kleenex Crew]

What a ****ing joke. The AFL again proving itself a hypocritical organisation with its support of 'one punch can kill' campaign.

Lamb went down the same way that Staker did and the same way innocent victims in King St and Kings Cross do.

 

[ESKIE]

2 weeks sends a poor message, AFL are behind the times

 

[Jabba73]

Next time the AFL get on their high horse about social issues they can GAGF.

Wont even follow their own rules, what makes them think they are bastions of societal norms? They are so ****ing removed from reality any move further away would ironically be on the way home again.

 

[BeligerentBlue]

Schofield should quickly reshape his beard and enjoy the full support of our prime minister

 

[MrPortAdelaide]

Mark Jackson was right, toilet trained lemmings
