The reload this page is getting a hiding.

 

[#6 Thorp #7 Selwood LOL]

Ah, the old "stop hitting yourself" defense.

Somehow, I don't see it working out.

 

[Gunf]

I can't wait for Bont or Daicos or another media darling to get cited for a tackle and watch them squirm trying to get them off.

They've been deliberating for 30 minutes so far

Surely it can't be that hard a choice.

Did he sling yes or no

Did he dump yes or no

Did he have another alternative yes or no

Done

Would be counter to the trend of the year if they let him off, so they are probably taking time to consider the ramifications.

Or, Steve Hocking is on the blower giving the "we're playing the TIGES this week. My whole career is centered around making them lose games. You must acquit" defense.

I think it is more along the lines of "if we suspend him we have to suspend every tackle do we want that"

I'm currently flipping between two apparent live feeds of the tribunal, and then a few Twitter feeds - just trying to find any updates

 

[Gunf]

Imagine being Newman and having to wait hours for his turn Poor **** will be still going at 10pm at this rate

[you pick one]

Exactly they also need wriggle room and if they play hard ball here that gets harder for them down the track.

The Tribunal has now been deliberating for just shy of 40 minutes. I'd be halfway through a line at Lune by now.

Clearly legal implications of either decision on the table.

 

[cats_09]

The Tribunal has returned. Standby for verdict.

And this is typical bush lawyer stuff. They have continued to dig a huge hole for themselves and it is now starting to fall in on them.

You lie they are still sleeping surely

 

[cats_09]

$10k out of the soft cap, and what we've seen an season continues

[calder_daddy]

Bloody wouldn’t have happened if Hocking was still in charge

 

[allrighty]

Bullshit decision, the AFL is now in deep shit with tackling

 

[Gunf]

So any tackle that has the head hit the ground is now done.

Only way someone doesn't get done is if the MRO just completely ignore it and pretend it didn't happen

 

[Jimmy Yamazaki]

We need Carton's lawyer.
