Just been watching the footy show on Win/Nine. The panel discussed various possible infringements in all games and their opinion was that Jake tripped Milne and could be up for the MRP. Remember no free was paid. If he is cited, will he again be the whipping boy?

paddy ryders was worse, imho kingy will get off....
 
Re: Will Jake cop a week or two

It is the push up we are talking about here, he'll probably get 10 weeks if cited.

Jetta needs a week at least for the *smile* he displayed yet again last night.
 
Re: Will Jake cop a week or two

As this is Jake King he will be lucky he the AFL doesn't refer him to the Hague War Crimes court on charges of genocide

Posted on another thread yesterday that because it is Jake he will go.
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

For gods sake - enough is enough with the AFL's hate campaign against Jakey. I dont have the slightest memory of this so called second incident. Would not be surprised if the MRP will look at another incident they would have normally ignored now just like the garbage that went on with the Adl sooks last year. Another example of the Jake King rule. When is Richmond as a club going to say to the AFL that this blatant smear campaign against King is on the nose. It seems there are elements out there deliberatly trying to interfere with the carreer of this man. Pehaps Jake should gather all the video evidence of the pathetic umpire decions and bad press and over the top lopsided suspensions and take the AFL to task in the courts. This needs to stop now as it is rubbish... End of Rant.
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

can't argue he deserves to go for the trip.

however, its his inability to get paid a free kick the club should be questioning, and occaisionally a free going against him, that doesn't get paid if it was someone else infringing.

3 to 4 weeks I reckon. Doing himself no favours.

For what? The trip? Sure it was there. I call it myself on here late Friday night or early Saturday. But 3 - 4 weeks?! Get off it. Even with his record and carryover it is only 2 at most.

If you are including the Dempster hit can you please explain to me what happened because like most on this site we don't think there was anything in it and that is without our rose coloured glasses on.

Surprised some are not advocating for him to be rubbed out for the Jones hit!

Yeah same. I saw the game live and the replay and didnt notice the incident.

He should plead provocation, the maggots are inciting him.

Carryover Monopoly points still dogging him from the Adelaide frame-up.
 
Re: Jake King (Merged)

i would have less sympathy for Jake if the umpires actually awarded him (a) the free kicks he deserves (b) only paid the frees against him where he infringes. Where the benefit of any doubt is concerned he doesn't get it from them. Hell, he had a 3 grab mark also not paid on Friday night. If he had held it any longer he could have been drawing a pension. However he will feel the full force of the AFL/MRP etc.

I know I am drawing examples from different seasons - but I can't forget how blokes like Judd (when he threw the elbow back & split Pavlich's cheek open) - can get nothing & Jake faces possibly 5 weeks out of the game for a trip that should have been a free to Milne & I haven't seen the off the ball incident but suggestions is it's not too bad. How many weeks did big bad Barry get for cold cocking Staker ?
