succeeds at the Appeals Board and is free to play!

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Aren’t most of the umpires from Victoria any rate?

Certainly feels like it at times

 

[George Kramer]

Charlie Cameron succeeds at the Appeals Board and is free to play!

Sanity at last

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Charlie Cameron succeeds at the Appeals Board and is free to play!

Now for Bedford to surely get off.

back from an ACL in 8.5 months. Wasn't expecting that. Billy dropped on the other hand...

Charlie Cameron succeeds at the Appeals Board and is free to play!

Definitely the correct decision, but pretty embarrassing for the AFL Tribunal. They will be looking for a chance for revenge.

Yeah they reason being they forgot to assess the risk of injury from the action

Funny stuff

Good bloke!

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

The umpires, like the players, live in different states around Australia. I'm not surprised that they don't all train together, and that's fair enough.

However, there's no reason why the Victorian umpires shouldn't have joint training sessions together, SA umpires training together, etc. They could/should be working on their skills in these training sessions.

My father used to be a boundary umpire in the NTFL. I know that he used to attend umpire training on a weekly basis at Marrara. I don't see any reason why the AFL umpires shouldn't be doing the same thing.

Why don't they attend club training sessions more often?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

AFL should keep the same 4 umpires as a team for most of the season, over time their interpretations would get closer.

It might be different to another team of 4 umps but at least within games they would be more consistent.

Keep the same 4 umpires, but only have 3 on the field at once.

What a ****ing mess!

Against us.

's ban was overturned

 

[FR0GGY]

Toby Bedford's ban overturned for the same reason Charlie Cameron's ban was overturned

Can we see if we can get Macca off for his hit on Lloyd?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Tribunal 2 from 2

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Toby Bedford's ban overturned for the same reason Charlie Cameron's ban was overturned

Thank goodness, otherwise completely inconsistent.

Was wondering why he was named.

Surely Christian needs to finally go & overhaul the tribunal system which is about as clear & consistent as the holding the ball decision.... & the CEO reckons everything has never been better.

He must think we are all idiots...

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Was this a deliberate error?

AFL shows that it's serious about concussion, hands down steep penalties

Players get to play

Win-win

 

[Crow_68]

Can’t tell me this isn’t an AFL ploy to wrestle back the media attention in a State of Origin week.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Open Golf and EngLOL V Windies Test Cricket on Foxtel tonight for any sport nuffs...

It might be different to another team of 4 umps but at least within games they would be more consistent.

Now I don’t want to copy necessarily things from the USA but believe that is what happens with their referees as well. The referees also in the NFL are not fully professional.

Seriously, how in gods name do you have multibillion dollar industries like AFL and NFL still have semiprofessional umpires/referees etc? Just mind blowing.

I’m thinking that if you now play AFL today, you have got buckleys chance of claiming concussion issues.

You know the risk associated with the game.

Now I could be completely wrong and probably are but just saying.

Great decision and could be a huge turning point on Brisbane's season. And even a better decision for Bedford.

I wonder if Charlie was still with the Crows, would he succeed?

 

[Maddogmetro]

The correct outcome for the two suspensions. But **** me, the reasoning when compared to McAdam.

McAdam - no injury caused, but a finding of likely to cause severe injury.

These two - actual injury of concussion, no finding that they were likely to cause injury.

These two cases tonight were won on legal technicalities.

I thought it was revealed that ALL umpires are located in Victoria?
