No chance of the recklessly cause injury charge getting up. A small cut doesn't match the definition of injury in the crime act

The Crimes Act defines ‘injury’ quite loosely (mind that ‘serious injury’ is distinct and is detailed a lot more in the legislation)
Per the act, injury can be defined as any ‘physical injury includes unconsciousness, disfigurement, substantial pain, infection with a disease and an impairment of bodily function;’
Without detailed information of how severe any laceration inflicted on the goal umpire was, it’s hard to know yet whether the Recklessly Cause Injury charge will be proceeded on. It may not, but there is probably a fair chance it could.
The point being if he is indeed sentenced on that charge, the penalty will be fairly serious.
it’s all made up no mention of DerrimutSeems a perfect time to post this. Comments contain further sightings

You cite the Crimes Act and its implications with the assuredness of a Frankston thug.

I like the idea of making him go to scumps training and letting them abuse him then make him run a gauntlet of launched water bottles.

So definitely nothing personal about Finlayson and his partner. But thinking mustn’t have been on too much coin if the had to move out of their “forever home” to rent because of her condition.

And he didn’t even deserve a final game in front of a home crowd with his family and friends….

Well he did deserve it. Just didn't get it. His response to that question was also classy.
I suppose they tried made up for their mistake by flying his brother out from overseas to attend the Lions game.

Respect their decision and yes feel for them both. Thought he might’ve had enough coin for house and her treatment. Then whichever way the cards fall, to stay in that house and raise a child.

Good luck to you Trac.
You would have looked good in black and white.

You may recall a little while back when I said "losing the 2018 flag will be a blessing in disguise"?
It's that kinda thing I was alluding to
Look where we are now vs West Coast.
Melbourne the same. Yeah, Melbourne won a flag, but their club is rotten to the core and they likely won't win another flag for a loooooooooong time.

Fact is he probably realised the Pies didn’t have the capital to get the deal done and thought staying at Melbourne was a better option than going to the Bloos.View attachment 2097582

There's always next year when we have the salary cap space.
There needs to be a clarry to the blues for McKay rumour, see if we can get his manager to deny a move for the 3rd time. Perfect finals preparation for the blues.
So Petracca says he is committed to staying at Melbourne.
For me that’s a win for us and the whole competition.
He is obviously unhappy and being in that frame of mind can only cause issues within the playing group for every year that he remains. Ructions in the playing group are fantastic for oppo teams. Just look at the Crows.
And I am still absolutely unconvinced that he will return to the player he was. Has some extremely deep mental scars from the pain and possible death scenario that he went through. Being told that your family was contacted at 3am with the news you may not pull through is a huge wake up call about the risks that are inherent in a contact sport.
Put the chilling events of the surgery, when he was operated on while awake, on top of that reality and I would blame no player from backing out of contests when confronted with heavy contact.
taking over his big contract, which we would have to do, would be riskier than the Dayne Beams trade.

Just post the rumour yourself, that's how they all start. Or send it to that Sam Faff bloke. He started the Stringer meeting up with Fly one.

IMO it’s likely that MFC will have a different board and footy dept / Senior coach in the next year or two.
And once all that changes anything is possible. We’ve seen how quickly coaches like McRae, Kingsley and Mitchell have been able to turn things around for their respective clubs.
The charge was added so police had and indictable offence and they could arrest the idiot who did it.
Extremely unlikely it will get up.
