Worst tribunal injustices

[spell_check]

Seeing as the AFL likes to make a mess of the Tribunal System, lets see how many injustices we can come up with over the years:

Obviously, I will start with Jeff Farmer getting away with breaking Doughtys' cheekbone because he "slipped".

 

[The Dice Man]

The Neville Crowe(and that Dog who played for Calrton) Incident!

 

[The Dice Man]

Ray Hall's tissue tap on one of the Jokes last year (ooops, I meant CLOKES!!!)

 

[Oh When the Saints]

Daniel Kerr wacking Sam Mitchell in the nuts and only getting 1 week (c.2006)

Fraser Gehrig getting 1 week for his tummy tap on Jason Cloke (c.2005)

Barry Hall getting off when he executed a skilfull boxer's punch on Matt Maguire in the 2005 Preliminary Final

 

[we'retalkinfooty]

Daniel Kerr wacking Sam Mitchell in the nuts and only getting 1 week (c.2006)

Thats the worst for sure.

 

[goalpie]

Tony Francis getting 6 weeks in his first game for kicking a West Coast player in the nuts. The West Coast player deserved it.

 

[Homer Jnr]

Beau Waters. 2 weeks for running past the footy and making contact with the top of Copeland's head as Copeland went for the footy. Absolute dog act.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

How many weeks did Brodie Holland get for king hitting Paul Williams?

Adam Hunters whack on Mark Williams goulies and subsequent let-off.

 

[banzai]

The fact that Greg Stafford even had to attend the tribunal for his love tap on Spida Everitt a few years ago

 

[campbell]

I Craig McRae suspension,after a semi in Brisbane against the Bullies.No vision.Bullies players stitched him up.When in fact he did not a thing, happned on the wing in front of us.pathetic stuff.

 

[eddiesmith]

Farmer only getting 1 week for his deliberate strike to the head against Sydney this year

 

[Truth Personified]

Beau Waters. 2 weeks for running past the footy and making contact with the top of Copeland's head as Copeland went for the footy.

Hear, bloody hear.

 

[blue_bhoy]

Greg Williams "tap" on goldspink i think it was that saw him get 10 weeks, that was a joke.

Greg Williams "tap" on goldspink i think it was that saw him get 10 weeks, that was a joke.

Williams record was so bad these days hed have 10 weeks before he went in.

 

[goalpie]

Craig Kelly getting of because Vander Haar had retired. Actually that was good.

Danihar only getting 11 weeks.

 

[stickman11]

Daniel Kerr wacking Sam Mitchell in the nuts and only getting 1 week (c.2006)

Technically, Sams nuts are so small, it was hard to tell if contact was made.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Alastair Lynch 15 weeks for punching the air.

 

[lewiy]

the mcrae incident with the doggies as posted above

how many weeks did mark bickley get when he broke (cant remember the player)'s jaw?

 

[eddiesmith]

Alastair Lynch breaking Wakelins cheek bone with a deliberate punch to the head and getting nothing

 

[Mancey]

Thats the worst for sure.

Turn it up. That was ****weak.

Who did Gary Hocking iron out a few years ago? and then get off with nothing.

That was pretty crap...

 

[TheBacko]

The fact that Greg Stafford even had to attend the tribunal for his love tap on Spida Everitt a few years ago

how about stafford getting 2 weeks for a jumper punch against sydney last year?

 

[goalpie]

Alastair Lynch 15 weeks for punching the air.

The worst boxer I have ever seen. Im seen bitch inflict more damage.

 

[Mofra]

Alastair Lynch breaking Wakelins cheek bone with a deliberate punch to the head and getting nothing

That was one I was thinking of.

Worst for mine was Grant's "suspension" in 97. No umpire reported him, video umpire let it go, yet Ian Collins made an issue of it and ultimately cost Grant a brownlow. Few (if any) other of the bad decisions listed above had the same ramifications.

 

[pjcrows]

liberatore, 1998 prelim, final quarter when theyre losing by 13 goals. a full fist punch to caven's face requiring stitches. in clear view for video with 2 angles. he only got one week. i couldnt believe it... it was a punch in the face.

didnt matter, 'cos we owned the dogs for the second year in a row and went on to win the granny, but still

 

[Oh When the Saints]

And you would know?
