I guess the VAFA Tribunal will have their voice on all this tonight (assuming they have been provided the footage referenced in this thread).

I would like to think that is standard policy and not just a special request from the VAFA. Many games are filmed now and although they can't film all parts of the ground it can help.Lets hope so Gia.
Confirming that Masala reached out to the VAFA and Eley Park and volunteered the footage prior to being asked and sent as soon as it was available.I would like to think that is standard policy and not just a special request from the VAFA.

Every incident should be investigated to ensure player safety is paramount, hence video footage should be requested from both involved clubs. If there's video evidence of people throwing punches, let alone multiple punches. They can have a rest for 12 months and have a think about what they've done, zero tolerance. To me, it does not matter who started it or any of that type of excuse. You throw hands, you get thrown out.

Also with reference to a previous previous comment in the thread relating to a red card earlier in the year, this was not for striking.
I reiterate that any and all instances of striking that the club is aware of were met with a season suspension.
If Masala has verifiable evidence whether video or internal leadership witnesses which confirm a player has punched another player, they will be suspended.Are you only suspending players from the club if they are given a red card for "striking" and not the other instances that are unreported but on the vision from previous games?
Your suggestion in here say you should.
If Masala has verifiable evidence whether video or internal leadership witnesses which confirm a player has punched another player, they will be suspended.
From the last Albert Park game, the video did not clearly show a strike, however the Reserves coach and field umpire verified that they saw an open handed slap, Hence the club immediately suspended the player for the remainder of the season despite the VAFA prescribing a 2 week suspension.
Like I have said, Masala has zero tolerance for striking.
Eley Park player sustained a severe concussion and broken arm (trying to defend himself)
However, people on this forum knowingly omitted the fact that the Eley Park player went out of his way to start the altercation AND threw the first punch which was an absolute haymaker. The video evidence is extremely clear on this. In relation to his broken hand, the video shows that there's no other way that his right hand could have been broken.
That's not what the Eley Park team manager told us after the game. The video evidence also shows no contact between anyone and the Eley Park players arm. The vision is very clear.Orangered is saying that the Eley Park player's arm was broken, not his hand.
Punch on last year between Masala + Wicks @Masala that started with a cheap one thrown behind play. Crowd members including the canteen lady got involvedSad to hear reports of such behaviour from Masala players. In the past, all games I attended as a volunteer and spectator were played in good spirits. I sure hope something can be done about this - shocking stuff really and just sad
How this club has changed - what a shame..Punch on last year between Masala + Wicks @Masala that started with a cheap one thrown behind play. Crowd members including the canteen lady got involved
Tribunal - VAFA ... no VAFA suspensions imposed? Ongoing investigation perhaps.

I sure hope the VAFA investigate this further. Simply not good enough.
Richmond Centrals are a joke of a club, worst culture in VAFA as far as I am concerned. Had a bloke suspended this year against Hawthorn for headbuttingLet's hope they are doing an investigation like the Richmond Central guy.
The VAFA will only investigate if Eley Park put in a report, iDon did your club report Masala to the VAFA ?Let's hope they are doing an investigation like the Richmond Central guy.

This request had to be lodged by Monday so if they haven't lodged one it's bad luck and the Masala players will get nothing more than a slap on the wrist from Stacks on.
