Universal Love Welcome to Freo- Josh Treacy

Would the tribunal really risk embarrassing itself by releasing the footage to the response of "That's not Treacy".

That would be amateur

They just said on channel 9: the WAFL won’t release footage until we say whether we’re appealing

This is the WAFL we are talking about... I'd back them in at being that amateur.

The Worst are certainly excited about it all...

Wtf. Round 5 how? The west just love their amateurish journalism

WAFL Amateur? Ha. I’ve seen more professionalism at fifth grade then WAFL. Releasing footage AFTER Freo appeals.. how is that legal? So guilty until proven innocent

 

[stax on the mull]

I see it says a 3 match suspension - but there's no WAFL until the beginning of April.

It used to be that if you were reported in the WAFL you still had to sit out for the amount of matches in the WAFL - if the weeks co-incided with AFL matches then a 3 week suspension meant you could play AFL in 3 weeks - but if they didn't, like if there was a bye week in the WAFL the suspension might carry over for 4 weeks.

I'm concerned the actual amount of time out might be worse than it appears.

edit: I'm guessing that's what it says in that article in the West in the previous post

unless we get an exemption, he’ll serve his suspension until 2 rounds of WAFL is played, which means he wouldn’t be eligible for senior selection until round 5

 

[Rob]

If he's actually done it (and you'd assume both us and the Weags would have multiple cameras there so if he hasn't then he'll get off) then he's a dumbass. A WAFL practice match? Pull your head in.

I hope you are flipping wrong

Hahahaha surely that can't be right? Can we appeal this?

 

[Purple Jesus]

Classic freo. Jesus christ.

 

[gaskin]

Hahahaha surely that can't be right? Can we appeal this?

Yes. The club have until 3pm tomorrow.

"No report was laid, but the Demons submitted a "Notice of Investigation" post-match and the WAFL Match Review Panel sat on Monday afternoon, grading the strike as intentional conduct, medium impact and high contact."

Who is on the WAFL match review panel?

 

[MadMundy]

He's getting suspended for striking and he didn't even ****ing strike him, of course.

You'd kind of hope if they are suspending him for 3 weeks down to 2: (a) they have clear footage of him striking Gray not just hearsay nor in the process of tackling; (b) that the footage is of Treacy and is not a case of mistaken identity; and (c) they've shared the footage with Fremantle so they can make an educated choice whether to appeal or not.

But this is the WAFL so it is possible none of those things could be true.

 

[stax on the mull]

Sometimes they overdo it with WAFL charges. I can remember Morabito towards the end of his time on the Dockers list being charged with a 2 or 3 week suspension for rough conduct and it being dropped.

 

[gaskin]

All the grounds have cameras as far as I am aware. The problem will be how good the footage is.

 

[wayToGo_]

Yep the WAFL seem a fair bit harsher than what we see at AFL level. Some Claremont girl also got 3 down to 2 this week for careless conduct, high impact and high contact.

The AFL would not allow this. The precedent would be too tail wagging the dog.

Then that’s exactly the Hancock incident. SURELY they’ll appeal, get the footage and he ll Get off. Treacy didn’t strike anyone. Wouldn’t WAFL suspensions just be AFL games. As if they ll do if he misses the first few weeks of Peel.

 

[Sully90]

Only Freo would have a player suspended for 3 weeks in a State league practice game for striking a former Freo player during a tackle somehow.
