Roast Cheating Filthy Power Found Guilty, Fined $100k, Club Facing Financial Ruin

[GROTTO]

You can absolutely guarantee the Doc didn't make this call, but will be the one hung out to dry.
This reeks of Hinkley's and Davies' desperation.

I have vision of Hinkley throwing the doc under the bus.

 

[GameofSloanes]

THIS SHOULD TAKE EFFECT FROM TODAY AND NOT FROM SATURDAY NIGHT.

Need someone from the AFC to tweet the AFL on this.

Good point, it's 12 days from a failed test. Which was today.

 

[GROTTO]

If the AFL concussion protocol is for 13 days, that means they miss this week and next weeks game.

This must happen.

 

[Crow54]

They have to trade JHF to us for nothing.

No thanks.

 

[Crow till I die]

This is 100% cheating... bringing the game into disrepute... complete disregard for player safety AFL rules... Anything where there is disregard for AFL rules shoudl be penalties... NOT FINES... PENALTIES!they are cheats

They still think they are the same club as if they were back in the 1980's and could get away with all sorts of things. They are a tadpole in an ocean now and need to be belted here

 

[Moonwatcher]

Tbh I'm surprised this isn't the case already. Club affiliated doctors sounds like a recipe for corruption.

But so do Drs that represent the AFL

Im trying to be like that f**kwit Rucci with his counting of Gibbs fathers games.

 

[FR0GGY]

Come to us Rozee, we’ll give you scat tests!

 

[jo172]

Nice to no longer be the Club getting caught for stupider and stupider ways to obtain an advantage (and failing) in plain sight.

What did we get for Barossa-gate and mask-gate?

This is 10 times worse than that

 

[Crow_68]

And the spin begins

 

[MrBarry]

Not that its even an excuse, but it wasn't even as if this was a grand final - just makes it seem even more desperate.

Agreed! They have literally said F U to the AFL and its rules. They took the law into their own hands.... You cant just break rules to benefit your club and your ladder position. This is what Port have done. They knew Crows game was big.. they knew Geelong game was big... so they broke rules to keep their backline stocks preserved at all costs... even the cost of their own player welfare! reminds me of the Varsity Blues movie where the big guy was put out there even after having oxygen on teh side lines... where the coach goes... 'Get out there... i need you for 1 more series hoss'. Win at all costs... no matter if riules are broken or players welfare is jeopardised.

Throw the book at them...

They need to be made example of.. because if they dont.. all clubs will do this because the port cheats failed to appropriately test.. others will too.. and there will be anarchy!

 

[WetCrow1991]

How do you think the paer players are feeling?

Not just the two in this incident … All of them.

They probably don't remember any prior incidents.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Good point, it's 12 days from a failed test. Which was today. So they are out of the GWS game as well. Unlucky.

Crows need Port to win both games

 

[AFC3000]

"In absence of the SCAT5 test occurring and out of an abundance of caution, the Port Adelaide Football Club has decided to enter Aliir into AFL Concussion protocols and he will be unable to participate, at a minimum, in the club's Round 21 match this week vs the Geelong Cats."

Should be "after an abundance of neglect".

Clearly the first of a negotiated outcome.

I just don't know how they thought they would get away with this one. Both cases. Almost more the migraines not concussion thing, thats straight up cheating after having plenty of time to think about it. Not to mention the health risks, they've not read the room, AFL wide, if they thought they were in the right here.

 

[Southerntakeover]

It's mind blowing really, listening to Kens excuse that he sounded fine was grating.

At least we've finally worked out what he's doing on the bench.

Cognitive diagnostics.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Not that its even an excuse, but it wasn't even as if this was a grand final - just makes it seem even more desperate.

They probably slip out of the top 4 and severely reduce the likelihood of a premiership.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

We all SAW it with our own two eyes. How ******* stupid can they be? B

For decades, Club Doctors have KNOWINGLY sent players back onto the field, that 15 min earlier, couldn't stand on their own 2 feet, without assistance

This stupidity of saying Doctors are professionals is laughable ......just look at all the legal actions against the medical profession ....on a wide range of illegal activities

Doctors are only human, like the rest of us ......they should never be put on a pedestal of righteousness

Jab him up, do what you have to, just get him back out there!

The real issue is, someone could die if this isn't stamped out hard

 

[Crow-eater]

And the spin begins

They passed a concussion test, but both have symptoms of concussion.

Are they doing the right bloody test?

Absolutely spot on..they tried to get away with it and its now even worse for them

Maybe they gave them covid tests
