MRP / Trib. Webster KO's Simpkin - Update 7 week penalty

[Young Gun #6]

It's a rare event a player owns it fully without trotting out an excuse.

Hard on this one as it was blatant as day there is absolutely no excuse.

 

[St 07]

8 weeks will have Webster cherry ripe and ready to go for the rest of the season

In the meantime we have plenty of depth to cover

Most of us are hearing his name for the first time

When I heard the name I thought they were talking about the former Balmain halfback Jimmy Webster.

Honestly have never heard this Bloke’s name ever called in a game of AFL.

I quite enjoyed his sister's music back in the day.

Happened with Sam Powell Pepper last week.

But take note of what the St Kida Defence representative is saying - totally different position. To the point of idiocy:








They are owning the deed but not the penalty that they surely know the new environment around acts like this demand.

I wouldn't read too much into it. It's just the lawyers trying to get the best for thier client.

Given St Kilda's record of trying to get things downgraded it's going to be 8 weeks.

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

Why not hang draw and quarter him at dawn on the wing at Arden St?

So much effort getting planning permission to build a gallows

He should be slugged another 2 weeks just for choosing Adrian ****ing Anderson as his barrister. Hated him as Footy boss, think he was prominent at Cricket Australia during homeworkgate.

lol

The only thing comparable is that both incidents resulted in a concussion.

Clever little tacker at 18months if they understand what's going on!

I get that. But sheesh, Anderson's Back to the Future arguments referencing penalties from previous years etc. are not doing his Club's reputation any favours here.

Totally out of kilter with the discussions that have taken place in recent weeks around serious head knocks and the need to stamp out idiotic acts like Webster's.

How do you know he is referencing the Simpkin bump and not that his mum might be carrying another baby and is confused by that bump?

 

[Captivating]

So who cops it?

Did Pickett or Degoey last year? No

Surely you can't just nail a bloke with 8 and say sorry mate your the example.

You sound like a diehard Saints fan.

Mate, ChristianBoy, previously Adam H, and The Finger is actually a Saints (extremely) tragic, who sometimes masquerades as a Demons supporter. A very sad case. He’s been trolling Pies threads since early October 2010. Not sure what the connection to that date is.

Oh, you are.

"Anderson (Saints) is asked what an appropriate sanction is. He says somewhere in the vicinity of Sam Powell-Pepper

[buttox]

We will know soon

First time waiting for a verdict?

Come on. 6:30pm.
Their Uber Eats order has just arrived. 90 minute wait coming.

First time waiting for a verdict?

It won't be long.
It's just a question of the severity of the penalty.
Webster is not arguing he should get off.
An hour or 2 tops I reckon

Well Anderson wrote the handbook on this stuff so he should know

Bastards should’ve ordered priority.
