Ablett Reported

[_RT_]

No they werent. And no one has ever been rubbed out by a tribunal for what ablett did. Abletts ruling tonight was consistent.

Using a technicality to exclude Cousins getting rubbed out last week is weak.

How do you know Gaz is a homophobe? Do you know him personally? Did you read his explanation?

Tough talk, without a shred of proof!

It's just disgusting that you have the audacity to post such a despicable comment!

Because he supports statements which say that gay people are evil and should be punished for it. That's usually a pretty big giveaway

He supports statements that people who have sex out of wedlock are evil. How many of those are there?

I didn't say his hatred was limited to just gays

Yeah real bad decision to suspend him for the same thing they suspend lesser known players for

And that other lesser known players also get off for depending on the severity and intent of their contact, and their record of cleanliness over an extended period of time, yes.

Where is the 'potential to cause serious injury' clause now?

Dead. It died after the Dusty case.

Practicing his mouth open exercises , hoping he can transition into the Geelong coaching box at the end of the season. Has some work to do to dislodge Scott though:

Needs to increase the aperture and get rid of the smiling eyes.

Yep, although that must be an old photo. Scotty’s been very measured in the coaching box this year. Seems to have been practising his ‘don’t give em anything’ looks.

Something something hissy fit something something Hawthorn thug cultcha.

Looks like Some bloke in a Hawks jumper showing what Ablett did to Shiel's head.

Wrong! Ablett removed his like + explained the reason he like Folau's comment, which, if you'd read it, included a whole list of others, who Felau believed would go to Hell. Go + read Ablett's explanation, before you tar + feather him.

Actually, yes you did -

Except that record is not part of the process, and lesser know players haven't received the same leniency

Your quotes of me prove I didnt

It only existed for the Dusty case

 

[hk89]

I feel Hodge has done worse than what Ablett did on the weekend and received no penalty

You might be right, but why supply a GIF of an incident he got two weeks for?

Since you didn't read the tribunal notes, they pretty much took off the extra week the AFL put on for potential to do injury and brought it back down for intentional, low impact and high to the head.

You won't see it used again this year I imagine as it makes no sense how it isn't applied to all cases as there is always a potential to do injury.

So while the MRP did make you the first ones to defend it, you were not affected by it at the end as it was brought back to 1 week.

I’m not familiar with the exact ins and outs of the AFL judicial regulations but every sporting organisation in the world that I am aware of has clauses and provisions for players who have enjoyed a clean record over an extended period. Considering it was raised by many in the media as an obvious way the Cats could defend him, I would be amazed if the AFL doesn’t have similar provisions in its judicial by-laws

 

[romeohwho]

Yep-the tribunal can factor in a player’s record and clearly a long time player with a clean record is more commendable than a new player with a blemish. ( the hawk guy). If you play 320+games without an incident, then it’s correct to recognise that.

Not sure what your interpretation of English is then

 

[Cotchins Hair Piece]

That was one of the most intentional hits I’ve ever seen. And the AFL aren’t no corrupt? Pull the other one.

Lol- you can’t have seen much footy then.

Ablett isn't really that physical a player, he plays primarily with self preservation in mind. He said in his testimony his first thought when he saw Shiel in that position was to spin away and protect himself which is interesting given he had a good chance to lay a fair bump. Hes not really a player though who wants to put his body on the line that much. Agree with the Geelong supporters here that there is no creal comparison there to players like Hodge or Mitchell who played much more on the edge and hence got reported much more

 

[Zouz Kitty]

This is by some distance the stupidest post I have ever read on this forum.

Do people who attack Ablett for his religious beliefs understand their hypocrisy when calling him a homophobe?

Ablett has had a lot of trouble with his injured left shoulder, so he would avoid re-injury.

I'm sure you believed the same about Cotchin's hit on Shiel
