Limbach challenging his report
Wow....
Hope he has a good advocate
Absolutely should have been reported and has done what he did in front of both a field and goal umpire
Good luck....
Agree im sure Sydney are praying buddy breaks down soonA blessing in disguise to have Limbach not playing? You cant be serious the guys kicked 65 goals. Lets hope he gets off.
Jacana coach offered a 2 year deal by the committee.
And won’t be taking the offer
And won’t be taking the offer
Not sure why he wouldn't take it, they went out and recruited, spent $$, he then talked them up to play finals and will finish 0-16.
Who have they spent money on besides for Cloke, Young, Bennett, Dorward. Surely they are not spending all that much buddy. I think they maybe invested in the wrong types but you have to take chances I guess. I think his changed the culture on field and doing a reasonable job with the cattle he has at his disposal..But Jacana trying to keep him to build stability I guess..
5k/p/ game on that 4 alone turbo is enough alone isn’t ?
Wrong. Found guilty,
Reprimanded,
Tribunal is an absolute joke. I didn’t see the incident and agree Limbach is a pretty fair type of footballer but if your found guilty of striking how can you npt be suspended. Even with a good past record you can’t strike someone. The system says if you appeal the automatic 2 weeks you risk more weeks if found guilty. What a joke this league is becoming with to much inconsistency. Seroiusly the are trying to encourage more umpires into our game and then just laugh at them.
Read the tribunal weekly reports. A lot of umpire abuse. Some get off and some get reprimanded. You abuse and umpire you must get weeks. Full stop!! Even kicking someone get a small sentence. What a joke.

You didn't see the incident yet will comment that the penalty is a joke???
Was it a punch to the head or a punch to the guts, or a jumper punch? Makes a big difference
AFL players are regularly found guilty of incidents and don't receive suspensions
I'm not sure how you can be yellow carded for striking and offered set penalty of 2 weeks , challenge the 2 week penalty , be found guilty and then get 0 weeks.
Makes a mockery of the system
Anyone heard anything about all 3 divisions being even numbered from a teams perspective next year?
10 teams in Premier
10 teams in Div 1
8 teams in Div 2
Will mean some extra fundraising for clubs in Div 1 & 2 with no bye
Keilor Park come back into Div 2
Sunbury Kangaroos join Div 2
Premier from Div 2 goes up
Last placed from Div 1 doesn’t get dropped but stays in Div 1
Winner and last placed in Div 1 and Premier get promoted and relegated as normal
Thoughts everyone??

That's why we have a tribunal, to hear all the evidence
Incident wasn't deemed forceful enough to warrant a suspension.
Every case is different, in this one
1. Umpire during play saw player strike another player - report and send off - tick
2. After game Umpire offered player 2 games - tick
3. Players rejects this as he knows although he struck the player the force was minimal and no damage to opposition player - tick
4. Tribunal hears full story, Umpire's version was correct, both players were correct - so report warranted, charge of striking found guilty - tick
5. Based on evidence Tribunal found due to insufficient contact and no injury to opposition player - reprimand - tick
Now if opposition player was injured because of the force of the blow, the reported player would've been looking at 3-4 weeks
