MRP: Buddy gone for a week ....

[asanque]

No confidence whatsoever in the legal counsel of Hawthorn.

Having said that, Vlad and Anderson ruining the AFL as per usual.

MRP back to its inconsistent best in letting Hille off for his hit on Bartel and Kennedy for his hit on Sylvia, yet charging Buddy.

 

[spudmaster]

That's good. Hope you get the same kick out of the ol' Hawthorn mod routine.

That's why we luv ya Grizzly! One for all and all for one

 

[asanque]

Brennan should have challenged as well.

All players who get hit with soft suspensions like this need to keep challenging the AFL until this rule is changed.

Its a complete joke.

 

[MightyHawks]

So because he got 2 weeks for the hit on Cuz last year which everyone think he didn't deserve to go for he now has a poor enough recent record that he can't avoid the 1 match ban with an early guilty plea.

Such bullsiht.

I mean really...

How does Josh Kennedy break Sylvia's jaw and not miss a week?

THe AFL have to have an agenda against Hawthorn. The fact we have lost 41 Free Kick counts in our last 50 games. We have players like Franklin continually get done by the umpires and the MRP whilst Hille and Kennedy ( who breaks Sylvias jaw ) get off.

And our draw this year is as crooked as it gets. Something has to be done by the club about this s***

 

[cam975]

Clear out the forward 50, stick Cyril in there one out, two out, 3 out, whatever, and just dribble the ball in any old way and watch him go!

In all seriousness I thought it looked ordinary at the time, and not surprised.

Because Sylvia didn't have the ball so Kennedy couldn't have tackled him, Cousins had the ball so Franklin had the option to tackle, is the way the AFL explained it.

So Aker didn't have the ball so couldn't tackle him - I actually thought it was accidental and tried to avoid it - didn't raise an elbow or drop his shoulder - but obviously I was wrong. Can someone tell me once again what was it that got hille off but got buddy and mooney suspended.

This game has gone plain simple mad

 

[Neville Bartos]

+ 1 to the this is bullshit team.

Demtriou's not listening so don't bother complaining. Let's hope that:

A) We don't challenge.
or
B) We challenge and find a new legal team to represent us.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Harbrow leaves the ground, nearly kills a player and is deemed within the rules. The head is fair game now, unless you are a Hawthorn player.

 

[Skyfire15]

Just an awful verdict! We cannot take a trick since 2008, the footy gods maintain their wrath against us!.. add our FB & CHF to join the missing list for at least 1 week!

Is it worth a challenge?

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Never challenge. Their decision is made before the challenge is made.

Cop it and move on.

Not with the team of lawyers we have

 

[The_Air_Up_There]

pffft what a pathetic verdict. so over it, whatever!

 

[mess]

Has to cop it. He jumped into the bump, caught him high and put him out of play for a decent while. If he didn't get off on the Cousins bump he was never getting off this one.

He just needs to learn to go in low when putting a hit on, simple as that.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Better call Saul

 

[IBleedBrownNGold]

It would have interesting to see if the Harbrow decision would have altered had Lewis sustained a serious injury. I had a feeling Buddy would go for that bump, but if the AFL thinks they're on top of the game, then they are kidding themselves. The day some poor player become a quadraplegic through an incident on the field is getting closer, and then where will we be left in regards to the bump? A guy is seriously concussed after a courageous act, no free, fair enough. A guy who is 6 foot 4, hip-and-shoulders a 5 foot 9 player and gets rubbed out? What next? No tackles allowed? Our game is quickly turning into Auskick.

 

[Tristagi]

Well if Mooney got a week for what he did I think Buddy has to deal with his as well.

Don't like it though

Agree, but crap decisions..

Buddy and Mooney are both about what, 6'4, 6'5? Of course there is going to be some contact but if its not intentional let it go...

 

[DannyJ]

ahhhhh nothing has gone right since 2008 September

 

[Skyfire15]

Too true.

Ohwell, In Cyril we Trust.

 

[KiwiHawk]

Please try and explain how this sytem works, to an AFL novice..

From reading the MRP findings, its seems to me that its Buddys previous bad record thats stuffed him here. How can something that he has already done time for be part of this new charge?

 

[HawksonFire]

we might as well challenge- its 1 week irrespective. Will ultimately lose the challenge mind you, but have to try...

 

[cam975]

Better call Saul

HAHA. That's very funny.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Buddyless for 1 > Buddyless for 2

 

[hardcore_hawk]

It cant be extended so we must challenge.
