MRP / Trib. Tribunal Thread - rules and offences discombobulation

[Grave Danger]

That may be what they've told you the consequences will be, Ryan, but you just know that it will be applied with discombobulating inconsistency...

The message Burton received from AFL after dangerous tackle suspension

“That’s what they’re going to punish you on.”

“They said mine could have been really bad if it was a harder tackle or if he hit his head or something like that."

That's not punishing the action, that's punishing a hypothetical worse action. They are taking the piss when concretely dangerous and needless acts like Pickett's are getting the same suspension.

This is correct. If they are applying this logic to burtons tackle I am surprised that Josh daicos didn’t get suspended for his love tap of duursma in the first quarter. Because if it was just a little bit higher and a little bit harder it could have been really bad.

This is where they can really **** over certain teams with the "potential to cause injury" bullshit.

Pickett's undeniably had far more potential to cause injury.

**** me I didn’t realise burton had been cited. What a crock of shit, 2 weeks for that. ****ing muppets. And we know a good bloke will get off for the same thing this year.

campaigners. Absolute campaigners running this show.

Burton lost the plot that game. Really disappointing after such a strong performance the week before.

It was a all-time bad decision to not replace our injured key defender so our rebounding shutdown small / med defender would have a change of assignment and we saw it play out the exact way it looked like it would.

If our coach was in any other line of work , like just this past week was a sackable offense. He commits sackable offences every second week.

There’s just no way any of us could go into work, do something which goes against all logic, that everyone knows is the wrong thing to do, and have it result this poorly (massive loss, players form dropping off a cliff, lose one of our key players to a ban) and not get ****ing slaughtered by our bosses. We would eat absolute shit.

It just goes to show there’s no accountability, because the afl has taken it away from us. Outright ****ing campaigners

 

[Janey]

Just read that Keays got fined for careless conduct making contact with an umpire when he pushed Rozee into the umpire, but, Rozee also got fined for the same incident, same charge, making contact with an umpire. I don't remember seeing the incident, but can someone please explain how Rozee could be fined for being pushed into an umpire.

gets one-game and Lloyd Meek a fine from the MRO

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Burton 2 matches vs Rohan 1.

 

[Brian McGee]

They are consistent in that the Burton and day actions were really similar. I think though the slinging action that Rohan did has a higher potential for damage and injury, but it was graded as a lesser impact for some reason, despite all 3 players managing to not hit their head and play on.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Shocking call. Rohan wasn't just equal to Burton and Day, it was worse. Jiath had just been in a scuffle with another Cat a few seconds earlier and Rohan was visibly pissed. He looked like he was deliberately trying to hurt.

Harry McKay just got off with a fine. Just "poor technique".

Bullshit?

Rohan did nothing wrong. Watch his feet. They barely touch the ground after applying a vice like grip. This was just a textbook tackle.

There's hardly any contact between Jiath's head and the ground. Questionable if there is actually any.

And I'd also argue that the "sling" is more Jiath spinning trying to slip Rohan's grip and Rohan just hanging on.

 

[theouthouse]

Lack of consistency is why the AFL tribunal is such a joke, and why the AFL will cop it big time in regards to CTE in the future.

Being slung and then forcfully stopped by the ground or having a player choose to bump you for a deliberate reason, causing the head to stop suddenly does have an impact on the brain, like a bruise you didn't know you had. Symptoms of concussion aren't there obviously, but the refusal of the AFL to stamp out these actions in a serious and consistent manner is going to come back and haunt them.

Harry McKay got off with just a fine. "Poor technique".

Just more proof if it was ever required that the comp is beyond biased in favour of the Vic clubs when a double forearm to the side of the head is graded as `poor technique' and a fine!

That looked like a bit of footy from the 70s or 80s - memmm-ries

Rohan is an absolute grub. One of my most hated players.
