Howes the crap the AFL are sprouting that all games were sold out , Empty fecking seats at every game

They are sold out.

you couldn't buy a ticket to the game.

I just went online you can still buy tickets to our game

Well that's weird, it let me go to the checkout , and then it said sold out

Sold as a double header so it makes sense that some don't show up for both games or leave early etc.

Not sure what that means for our 'official' crowd or how full it will look. I suppose the emptier the stadium is now the more full it will be later?

 

[Saint Shags]

Hats off to Ken Hinkley for sticking up for his boy, great stuff

The only supporters that should be able to give him any grief are North supporters.
This idea of booing him just for the sake of it seems to have started when Port played at the G in round 2. Which group of 'fine' supporters were responsible for that I wonder...

Because of the double header. The ticket covered both matches.

The game in the hills was not full , vacant seats everywhere , maybe 2000 were at the bar at the same time

 

[my name was taken]

Same for Fri night at AO, only game there that night

 

[PoppedCorn]

How's the crap the AFL are sprouting that all games were sold out , Empty fecking seats at every game

You got two games for 30 bucks
So theyve got to sell the 50k over the two games at AO

Cheeky

 

[Dard Ball Get]

Merrett suspension absolutely stinks

 

[Mowman]

Marshalls last 2 taps straight to the Pies

 

[austinnn]

AFL must be stoked, they have a Top 4 Showdown next week. 1st vs 4th, 2nd vs 3rd

 

[Mowman]

Merrett suspension absolutely stinks

Shocking

Owens better ruck. Marshall should have been thrown forward while Owens did a Grigg

[bungalow_bill]

How is Joyce playing?

Going well ,he may even keep Gardiner out. The main downside according to most lions fans is that his kicking out of def can be a bit iffy

 

[StFly]

Welcome to Tribunal Tuesdays, where everyone needed pancakes but instead get to an office to have a cry instead.

First case: Injectors try to be stand up people and the AFL say "no u" again in so many attempts to prove their point.
Can't be too fluffy with this one, Buckets on the juror seat with 2 other plebians, so it's only 66% scuffed as Loewe is above reproach. Above. And I'll not hear any different.

Crux of arguments
AFL: Merrett pile drove him, it was all Merrett, this is bloody intentional!111
Injectors argument: Swallow had forward momentum, it's a tackle, the forward momentum is more his fault as opposed to the one stopping him and this needs to be less on everything else and just on the action.

As facts were on the Bombers side, AFL will give him 1 week as Loewe will talk them down from 3.

 

[StFly]

And ol Zachy boy's team., having used things like common sense, human mechanics, and trying to educate the AFL on not talking shizen has failed, he remains banned for 1 week.

Now we move to ours as then we are arguing not intentional but careless.

 

[SaintTwitch]

Did I read right in that Merretts ban was upheld on the ‘potential to cause injury’?

From the AFL site...

The tackle was graded as careless conduct, medium impact and high contact, and the Bombers wanted to get it downgraded to low impact.

and Stephen Jurica sided with the AFL, agreeing Merrett should have realised Sparrow was vulnerable and the potential for injury made it medium impact.
