Stomping would be looked at as angry or careless behaviour, either you trample someone without trying not to on your way through or you stomp on someone holding onto you etcI don't understand this.
Gleeson: It goes beyond a stomping act. It's more problematic than that, and that's why this is a serious misconduct charge.
Surely stomping is intentional and worse than stepping on someone.
This is less than stomping, so why is it more problematic?
Best possible result in the circumstances.
Now watch Duckwood get off.
Yes he has a history, there is no doubt about it. He is a stupid peanut for deliberately stepping on Atley's leg.How many times does it need to pointed out that Sicily has a record?
He will not be given any benefit of the doubt.
Zurhars has a clean record. Hence he gets a fine.
Presuming the club puts him straight back in.Be interesting to see how he goes against the Bombers. No doubt they’ll try stir him up.
This is terrible, James Sicily misses a beautiful trip to Tassie.
Just when the weather is great and the place is so green and beautiful.
No trip to Boags Beer Museum, Pinot Noir or multiple beers at O’Keeffe’s Hotel for little James.
We’ll do it for you, James.
That was 100% negotiated during the day.
All Ash did was soften the blow for Hawks fans expecting a fine
He said suspension but not how long.
How about the AFL look at incidents in isolation and then decide if any loading should be applied based on previous history. Normally I like your stuff, but I can't agree with you on this one.
I totally agree that the AFL are far more interested in the look of the game and its image, rather than the potential for injury.It amazes me, NOT, that we're not seeing repeated replays of that cowardly action, which did have the potential to cause some serious damage. On the other hand, the video of a player jokingly, and stupidly, stepping on an opponents leg, which is a bad look for our game, gets played over and over, with calls for his head.
Am I to conclude, that the penalty for doing something that is a bad look for our game, is more serious than doing something that potentially could maim a player? The rules seem to indicate that.
Funny though it was a collective wtf when the charge of misconduct was leveled at him, why because at the time nobody knew what happened, the look of the game was fine and dandy until someone DID THE JOB HE IS PAID TO DO.
Nah it was fine before you touched it.Edited for accuracy
