Oppo Camp The Non-North Footy Discussion & Matchday Chat Thread V

In an alternate universe we’re into the prelim with Dusty and Kelly and Brad in the box.

And a fit and healthy Sammy W and EVW in the backline.

 

[Gasometer]

On another topic, Dusty Martin wow. He’s going to another level. Unbelievable footballer. His presence on Friday night reminded me of Ablett snr or even Carey. Unstoppable.

I can’t ever remember him bleating to the Umpires about what he should have got as a free

And Benny tagging the best midfielder out of the game

It was funny to see that "Journalist" Mark Stevens report the Toby Greene incident on 7 NEWS. The same guy who openly admitted to having dinner with Luke Beveridge, and openly admits that he is a Dogs supporter. Now, I personally think that Greene is a grub, and should absolutely be suspended for his actions, however, Mark Stevens reporting the incident, with a distinctive look of bitterness on his face, is somewhat a conflict of interest. Because of course a Dogs fan/sycophant of Luke Beveridge would label the guy guilty before hes even had his tribunal hearing.

Toby should save his infringements for when he plays us and hope James Brayshaw is commentating. JB would take out a loan against his own house to cover Toby's legal fee just to prove impartiality.

If the Bont turns up to give evidence at the tribunal tonight wearing an eyepatch, I smell a rat

And Gav 'better than Pendles' Urquart running out for his 300th game.

 

[ferball]

He’s certainly a lightning rod for trouble.

I’m certainly conflicted. On one hand it’s a dirty act that needs to be punished. On the other it was on Mr Malicious himself, so I that’s good.

It depends. If he was just roughing him up a bit I couldn't care less. Its a sudden death final. If he was eye gouging then **** him - he's probably cost his club a shot at playing in a GF this year (he says trying not to giggle.)

But I wouldn't be trusting Bontompelli's word myself. I'd want to see better evidence than that or a Dogs medical report.

Love the premise that we can't even trust that.

Tribunal findings:
Toby Greene fined $2000
Lindsay Thomas suspended for 14 SANFL games

Sarcasm?

Sarcasm?

...well not as much as Danger or Selwood

He looks at the ump every time he loses a contest expecting a free. Still love him though

Anyone else hearing about something awful happening in Ballarat today?

Yep - in the media thread. Vale Spud if reports are true.

$7,500 is a massive fine, according to afl.com.au: https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-09...by-greene-learns-his-fate-at-the-afl-tribunal

FYI, Toby Greene is on as much as $800k to $1m per year - or roughly $15-$19,000 per week.

 

[Samsquanch]

Yep. Officially a "Good Bloke (TM)"

 

[Firestarter]

Both teams are grubs so whatevs.

 

[Heaps of fun]

It's almost as if he didn't really do anything.

GWS v Eagles grand final will do me just fine.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

It's almost as if he didn't really do anything.

Which is sort of consistent with Bont's non-reaction at the time, and no focus on it by the commentators.

 

[Dan]

Not malicious enough it would seem.

Anyone but the Eagles...

Yeh. You would think the " Bont " would have reacted like Natanui getting his hair pulled. Not kindly.
