Preview 2nd Semi Final, 2020: Richmond v St.Kilda - Metricon Stadium, Friday 9th October, 7:50PM AEDT

[PoppedCorn]

And there it is....
Ill chip in a 50 to the Shit in Gleesons top drawer fund

 

[kernelT]

Seriously dumb and unjust comp.

No chance a darling of the comp pays for that.

 

[Joffaboy]

No surprise.

AFL briefed Tom Morris about the outcome before the Appeal started.

 

[puppy_dog7]

Hope Lethers blasts the AFL for this. To the letter of the law there is no way he can get rubbed out for that.

 

[Ricochet]

Longs appeal fail

 

[RBW_007]

What a bunch of **** munchers

 

[kernelT]

I hope we destroy Richmond and Long gets another game.

 

[Ducky Tie]

Not a shock. Disappointing for Long. Savage or whoever replaces him should do pretty much as good as he’s been doing anyway. Glad the club backed him in and gave him a crack. Let’s have a crack agains the tigers.

 

[Sab22]

WOW. Unlucky, but we shouldn't hold on to this though. I expect this to fire up the club more.

 

[Tommy Wigs]

Did Morris say what he did on TV?

 

[BrutThough]

Going to make beating Richmond even sweeter now.

 

[moirae42]

Gotta move on.

We have a Semi Final to win.

 

[Mat Mann]

wasn't expecting Long to get off at all Isn't a star nor plays for a big club, completely expendable

 

[Plugger35]

Can we appeal the appeal?

Or maybe we can get a Supreme Court injunction like the Swans did to allow Andrew Dunkley to play in the 1996 GF.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

AFL better pray that Danger or Cotchin does not do the same thing this weekend.

Or else they will be ****ed

 

[_Maximus_12]

We don’t need Longy to roll these campaigners. **** Richmond, **** the AFL, **** this Gleeson SOB.

 

[puppy_dog7]

Did Morris say what he did on TV?

When asked about 40min ago on Fox Footy, Morris said the appeal had already failed. 5min later host was quick to say it hadn’t failed yet, and was still going

 

[Strahany]

What’s all this talk about Tom Morris?

 

[Pardon me]

They need to be very careful with this reasoning because “potential to injure” is a Pandora’s box going forward

 

[Baldock66]

To be expected. Doesn't matter; it just gives Ratts an opportunity to be even more inventive in who he plays and how he goes about bringing Richmond down. And it galvanises the team. Them against us. Backs to the wall. Give 'em hell Saints!

AFL better pray that Danger or Cotchin does not do the same thing this weekend.

Or else they will be f’ed

It's too late, Cotchin, Bont, Fyfe have all done far worse that have caused proper injuries and concussions…

 

[crasha301]

No name player= "mate, you could have injured him so it's going to be a week. We don't want this in our game"

Big name player= " geez mate, well you did injure him and he couldn't play the rest of the game but it is finals so we'll just give you a fine ok? Sorry about this"

Absolutely fn garbage!

“Given the degree of force, the degree of head impact, the momentum of player Long, all of which the jury were entitled to find was clearly established by the video, we consider that no error of law has been identified in the findings of the jury.”

Absolute BS!!

 

[lewdogs]

Just shows how hard it is to overturn the original decision. Especially when the initial jury didn't even look at it properly.

The MRP has ****ed themselves over here, any tackle or bump could fall under this rule
