Its still only footy.

Read on twitter before from the saints page that there won't be any teams at all (even a squad) until tomorrow due to it being a Monday game but that's been taken down by the looks of it.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Hearing Hanners a chance to play Monday night.

Will be at least 5 changes to the side.

At least 5??

Right you are then

Six
Im expecting six changes

[Hubnester]

Forgot we didn't play until Monday. Keen to see who comes in and who goes out apart from Long, if any.

 

[plugger66]

That’s a better side. Should win.

Close. Maybe 2

More surprising that we didn't even contest it - pleaded guilty and accepted 3 weeks.

The 22-year-old pleaded guilty to his rough conduct charge and agreed to a three-week penalty – via his representative Jack Rush – with the AFL's legal counsel Jeff Gleeson prior to Tuesday night's hearing.

Terrible decision by the club.

I believe that 3 weeks is the minimum penalty that can be imposed given the classification which caused it to be sent directly to tribunal.
Essentially the tribunal decides if it is three weeks or four or more weeks, so agreeing with the three week was the best we could argue for.
Not happy with the penalty, but am happy that the club made the right move to minimise chances of more.

I’ve asked pebbles what we should have challenged but no answer. He was either guilty and at least 3 weeks or not guilty. The club realised there was no other option.

Maybe the club makes a stance and takes previous cases against the likes of Fyfe, Dangerfield, Martin etc and match them up against the case outcomes of the AFL nobodies like our boy Longy.

That has nothing to do with long.

Thats my point. It should.

 

[plugger66]

No it shouldn’t. Every single case is different and also rules change. Just out of interest what should have happened. And to keep it on topic long is out so I think Webster is the perfect replacement.

 

[AirWinmar]

So much for a selection melt tonight. Hold my rum. Actually stuff it, already poured it

You'll cry when it's Sav.

3 weeks was a bit steep - because how else was Long meant to attack the football - head on and if he backed out we would be calling for him to be dropped.
Anyway we have multiple replacements for halfbacks so no worries.

I feel after people in the media were calling for 4 weeks so his chance of getting 2 went out the door.

 

[wayneolsen]

What a strange way to react. Not sure his question warrants that reply. Steven at most played 2 or 3 games at Geelong...and there doesn't seem to be any evidence that he smashed them in the wet.

What’s strange and unwarranted about my response that offended you

 

[Mat Mann]

there so much petty bickering this place is unreadable

If Long had been on the receiving end of that hit, this board would be screaming that 3 weeks wasnt enough. Dont deny it

What did you call me???

Imagine how many weeks he would've got if it was Fyfe he knocked out instead of Darcy...small mercies I s'pose

 

[Johnnyrayflamingo]

Well, it seems the Crows might be off their game after being convinced that wife sharing is ok.

That camp has destroyed that footy team.

 

[ScrappyDo]

What did you call me???

Thems fighting words you malaka!
