News Injuries and Suspensions 2021

Absurd. I could understand 1 or 2 even if they're looking to make an example out of him, but there was nothing in that incident to warrant anywhere near 6 weeks. Collins wasn't even injured ffs.

Guess we'll find out tonight.

I didn't say he won't get 6 weeks just that he shouldn't get anywhere near that if we're being consistent. AFL will no doubt go into corporate virtue signalling stealth mode over this though.

I'm not saying you are wrong regarding Viney, but the bolded bit is a massive problem with the AFL sighting/tribunal system. Whether or not a player is injured should not matter, they should punish the action, not the outcome. I know they don't currently (Buddy last week), but they should.

What happened to the "Potential to cause Injury" they used to have. I remember Dusty getting 2 weeks for a elbow a few years ago because of that.

It's MRP lotto time. IMO should get 2 weeks, just for being a moron. I'm sure plenty will disagree with me though.

Yeah I'm not suggesting it's worth 6 weeks I'm mocking the AFL & their pets.

It's just like I always say about attempted murder vs murder.
You shouldn't get a lesser sentence because you were too stoopid to get the job done!

Failure should not be rewarded! I like it.

2 would be reasonable imo. Ideally we'd plead down to 1 on appeal. But under the new Dees Prez I can't see us appealing no matter what he cops.

 

[Plugger35]

The only way Viney would get 6 weeks for that is if he changed his name to Steven Baker, I reckon he will get 2 weeks at most and possibly just the 1.

 

[Hava Alle]

Heeney a test this week. Thumb injury. Cleared of major damage though.

Could not like enough. We’d have to be the only jurisdiction of any sort in the world that punishes the outcome ahead of the intent. If you swing a massive right hook behind the ball but you get lucky because you’re an unco campaigner that should never mean you get a lesser punishment than someone who (for example) elects to bump but is a fraction late and does not intend malice. AFL is cooked

Best give him a rest until SC finals are over

 

[Hava Alle]

Doubt it. Softish run home but top 4 up for grabs. They need %. Port playing the Doggies round 23.

So both of Heppell's thumbs have been broken within the last month, but neither time did we see the "injuries" happen on-field. Does he have a gambling habit and owe money to the mafia or something?

 

[TheRednWhite]

Green dead, joins Hopper

Taranto surely back into the mids and does something good? Or is Leon still a campaigner?

Cut the ****en things off, tape em up, and get the **** back out there!

 

[DT_35]

Man the f*** up Isaac FFS

 

[A Bit Dusty]

Cut the fu**en things off, tape em up, and get the fu** back out there!

If that's the case does he give the thumbs up thumbs down or the just the bird when he is happy or sad?

 

[DaveyBoy123]

We could be here until midnight for the Viney case... I think Melbourne's representative is Lionel Hutz... You're supposed to read & understand the charge before you make a plea!

I cut all my fingers off one day, went to hospital and the doc asked me did i bring the fingers in with me, I said no, I couldn’t pick them up.




Ill see myself out

He should get 6 weeks for being an idiot

 

[Nelso]

2 weeks for Viney.

Melbourne are better off without him in the team as he is a liability.
