Stafford got off for breaking Everits jaw. Rocca gets 2 weeks for bumping some guys shoulder. It was like rnd 5 when he got off. Its a grand final here. Conspiracy - i think so. AFL is a disgrace.

Oh wait...Here they come. The ****ed off collingwood supporters who believe the whole world is against them are coming out in force. He hit someone, he did something stupid, he gets punished. Simple. Now shutup, stop complaining, and continue with life.
None! They won't make it.
Okay Collingwood, accept the decision that Rocca is going to miss a Grand Final. You made it to a Grand Final, you should be happy. The dirty dog got what he deserved and he deserves to be missing a Grand Final IMO. A pathetic act and he deserves to be feeling like **** for missing a Grand Final. He had a choice to do it or not and he did it. Serves him right as far as I'm concerned.

I didn't see you complain when Anferney wasn't booked for belting Mick Martyn behind play.
You'd think he would've learn't from Cloke to be bloody careful in finals.

I wish everyone would stop making out like there is a huge contingent of Collingwood supporters, particularly on this forum, who are saying the decision was unfair or that Collingwood and Rocca has been hard done by. From what I've read so far, most Collingwood supporters, like myself, are more dumbfounded and upset at Rocca's actions and although disappointed, don't have a problem with the tribunal's decision (and shouldn't have, it was always going to be two weeks at least).
As for Rocca being a dirty dog, to that I say whatever. What he did was stupid but there is nothing in the man's playing history that would suggest this is a regular occurence. If he's a dirty dog, then surely you don't think too highly of Leppitsch blatantly putting the knees into Burton. Even though he did disguise that a lot better than Rocca did in his situation, the intent was still there.

You're forgetting how this works magpie.
The collingwood conspiricy theories are only pulled out after something GOES COLLINGWOOD'S WAY.
If Rocca had have gotten off, THEN it's a conspiricy.
If he gets suspended it isn't talked about or people will realise that the same rules apply to Collingwood as they do to the rest of the competition.
Brodie getting 2 weeks = Conspiricy!! That Ed's a mongrel and is probably bribing colles!
Rocca hitting Martyn= conspiricy!! Ed edited the tape, burnt it and paid martyn not to talk!!!
Rocca getting 2 weeks.= still a conspiricy but this goes against our argument so lay low and don't mention Ed's involvement till something goe's their way.

He deserved the penalty. I thought that all Collingwood fans would actually come to. Obviously not

You pie fans always amaze me, just when I think you can't get worse you lower the bar for humanity once again.
How on earth can anyone dispute that Anthony Rocca should have been suspended? He misses the grand final boo hoo, that's actually rewarding him if you think about it, won't have to get his arse kicked by Mal Michael.
Only 1 person you can blame pie fans, ANTHONY ROCCA!

If it IS a conspiracy, then Rocca is surely involved, and in league with the conspiring party. Only explanation for doing something as stupid as throwing elbows the week before the GF.

From today's Age report: "Collingwood can't even claim a conspiracy theory, since the board chairman, Peter O'Callaghan, QC, is a longtime Magpie supporter."
Desperately sad for Rocca, his family, teammates and his fans - he's a tough but fair player who has worked very hard to finally live up to his potential and last week's act looked clumsy more than anything - but it's hardly a conspiracy.
