Opinion Non-Crows AFL 9

[ABAB]

There’s bad boys with tatts etc but this bloke is just a shite human

Didn't Martin "allegedly" grope a female and threaten to stab someone with a chopstick?

Doesn’t change the fact Thomas is * human being

 

[cleanhands]

We can delude ourselves into thinking he's rehabilitated because he's good at sport.

and not like he wouldn’t have been given all the tools

 

[WaynesWorld19]

This would surely go down as the largest suspension by the AFL in history?

It's not even close to the largest suspension ....

Even back then it was a career ender. Classic footy moment though.

Still cracks me up, no matter how many times I've seen it.

Just hearing on Rowey's show that Angus Brayshaw has 5 years left on his contract. I assume he gets a full payout. Does anyone know if he remains on Melbourne's inactive list for those 5 years and does Melbourne carry his contract for those 5 years.

Sydney had to keep Tippo on their list for 2 years after he retired to pay out his contract. I imagine the same will happen here.

If Tarryn has been sacked, then surely his 18 game suspension should apply at any new club he would sign for in the future. This being because he's sacked and isn't eligible for games on that basis alone

So for example if Geelong recruited him in 2025, he'd have to serve 18 games on the list before he could be selected, because those would be the next games he is eligible to play

 

[Golumless]

I'm generally curious why the AFL needed to investigate? On first impressions is it that they think Norths board is useless?

That would be an abhorrent application of the sanction.

 

[Sanders]

C'mon. Did Goodwin have his team stripped back to the youngest and most inexperienced team in the competition? Nope.

That was a choice

His 18 games apply to all levels so technically even though he’s no longer AFL listed he’s still serving a ban

Also he’s not technically delisted yet.hes been told he will be now they are going finalise the details on his that looks

Plus- getting sacked because of an 18 game ban is an added penalty, not grounds to hold it over!

There is a process to follow. There was a complaint made to the AFL, he was pretty much done as a North player regardless of the outcome, him breaching his contract with the AFL impacts things like what if anything he gets paid on the way out the door.

Didn't "Fabulous" Phil Carmen cop a 20 game ban for headbutting an umpire?

What a waste

 

[cleanhands]

Yep could have been spoken about in the same discussion as the Carey's, Ablett Snr's etc if he could control his temper.

Without doubt would have been in that conversation

True although it would have been an interesting technicality if it was specifically an AFL level ban and he was sacked before games started this season.

Being banned for AFL games that you can't play because you're sacked is a bit like a player serving a suspension when they're injured and wouldn't have played anyway

Was half expecting them to say they’re adopting the power stance…

Don doing very well thus far!
Listening to the fans doesn’t happen at West Coast so quite a shock

I think Phil Carman got something similar when he headbutted a boundary umpire.
Edit; I was late to that party.

Yeah - look at us laughing.

Last three years that s**t culture has just finished top 4 three times and won a flag.

Our lovable coach has a 26-41 win loss record over that time.

Who wants premiership losers like Dusty Martin, Jordan DeGoey and Simon Goodwin.

Is this Fox News?

Where is the lie?

Would he have been sacked if he didnt get an 18 game ban?

18 game ban came before the sacking.

 

[AFC979810]

C'mon. Did Goodwin have his team stripped back to the youngest and most inexperienced team in the competition? Nope.

Nicks round 1 team in 2020 had a midfield of Brad Crouch, Matt Crouch and Rory Sloane alongside 9 other players that played in our 2017 grand final (Walker, Smith, Laird, Lynch, Ratkins, Seedsman, Talia, Brown, Kelly).

He also had Bryce Gibbs and the addition of first round talent that wasn't around to play in the 2017 Grand Final - Milera, FOG, Jones, McAsey.

Nicks Round 1 team had an average age of 25.4 years and 94 games experience. We were the 10th oldest team out of 18. Our oldest player was Sloane who had just turned 30.

This team lost 13 games in a row and only kicked more than 10 goals twice in 18 matches.

AKA, the Port Power player suspension

We've seen this been put forward before.

Conveniently leaving out the whole background as to why we had a new coach to begin with.

I'm not even the biggest Nicks fan, but at least be real.
