how did neitz get off?

If Neitz deserved one for that, then Bevan deserved 1 also. Both completely innocuous accidents, with both going for the ball and taking the man.

Neitz didnt have his hands up, but he was too far away from the ball at the time and if you watch him closely, he rarely puts his arms up before he needs too.

Neitz didnt event lift his hands up to mark...

Should have been a free to Neitz, Goodes deliberately backed into Neitz to shepherd him out of the contest, Neitz would have marked it otherwise.

Courageous and clever by Goodes, idiocy by Goldspink.

How can you be attempting a mark if your hands aren't even in the air?

Memo to all AFL thugs: If you want to punch, bite, kick, knee, scratch, spit on, or rape another player...just make sure you're looking at the ball when you do it. Then everything's fair game.

Learn the basics of the game first mate, goodes effectively shepherded neitz out of the contest, Neitz didn't raise his arms because he realised he had no chance of marking it once Goodes deliberately backed into him, taking him out.

Should have been a free to Neitz, Goldspank has no idea.

i'd love to see it happen it you and then see your reaction tough guy :rolleyes:

mate I've copped a lot heaver than that playing footy.

copped a knee to the head from a ruckman from my own team which split my eye open and gave me 15 stiches from my nose to my temple. Accidental, but happens.

When you jump you do tend to use your knees.

Neitz only had eyes for the ball and I could show you plenty of photos of players with knees up, but not their hands.

There are 2 such sydney players without eyes on the ball in this photo.

I say book LRT and the guy in front of him. Give them three weeks for putting their knees up. :rolleyes:

God this forum is full of AFL watching pussies. The game takes courage to play, someone could have just as easily kneed Neitz in the head.

Melbourne often get a good run from the tribunal. its good to have friends in high places.
I remeber last year pickett was getting suspended for 6 weeks for a hip and shoulder then Maloney would clean someone up in the head and get off.
I think the VFL (i mean AFL) really want a victorian team to feature in the finals this season.

Are you seriously handicapped?

Moloney was given two weeks for NOT EVEN MAKING CONTACT with Bartel's head, and the tribunal reasoned he still casued Bartel to hit the ground, even though he didn't touch him.

Maybe you should actually, you know, try KNOWING sometihng before talking.

I saw maloney hip and shoulder 4 or 5 people in the head last season and not get cited. I saw pickett do one and get the book thrown at him. Melbourne players get preferential treatment at the tribunal.

You have no idea.

Name the times Moloney did this and wasn't cited.

Then explain how we managed to have MORE games lost via suspension last year than any other team, yet somehow received preferential treatment.

Wanna give that a try?

fortunately i have alot better things to do than argue with a minature tool owner.

Well I don't, so I'm arguing with a miniature tool owner. And it's you.

Nothing to add to the fact Melbourne were suspended more than anyone else last year? Just a coincidence that in spite of the fact we get preferential treatment from the tribunal, we still manage to get more suspensions? Odd theory of yours Andy. i'm tipping the 'Handy' part of your name refers tot he fact you're constantly yanking your doodle.

On a pile of money with many beautiful ladies.

Look i'm just stoked that the visually impaired population can also enjoy the spectacle that is AFL football. It brings a tear to my eye.
