They shouldn't have X players on the jury. All of them are mates.
Should be a independent thing.

Danger gets a week as predicted.
Cats will challenge
Tribunal will lower to a fine or nothing
Tribunal decision not manifestly inadequate enough for the AFL to appeal.

Everyone is happy.

anyone with $$ on Dusty for the Brownlow would be lashing out on some next-level booze tonight I'd reckon.

yeah, No way AFL will let Danger get rubbed out. It will be like scripted wrestling soon. AFL will dictate what outcomes they want and make them happen.

Let them challenge and danger gets 2 weeks instead of one.
Careless conduct with medium impact to the head. I don't see how they could down grade any of these, they both seem about right.
2 brownlow medalists in the same team for the tigers, who would of thought that.

Hope they challenge and he gets two. Playing a Dangerless Cats in 2 weeks will certainly help our chances.

Get ready for the appeal.

What are Malcolm Turnbull, Waleed Ali, the Dalai Lama and Donald Trump doing tomorrow night?


Please, please, please can we get the Mooch as a character witness?

if that happens, I'm buying some next level booze. (1 week is right though IMO, given the direction of the Tribunal and all that).

Meanwhile, in other news, Lance "Buddy" Franklin can accept a fine for his indiscretion. It is the 75th time this season that he has been fined for an injudicious whack and the AFL is getting sick of it. They will rain punishments of Biblical proportion on his sorry ass, should it happen another 25 times.

Consider this a warning.

"Franklin was cleared for a second incident that saw him collect Hodge high with a swinging arm, with the MRP deeming the action was not a striking motion and not a reportable offence."

Throwing a punch and connecting high is a real no-no but just swinging an arm and connecting high is Ok.

Unreal. Talk about mealy mouths.
