Think I'd rather swin naked in the Yarra!!

Always some Clown doing that sorta thing.

Hopefully Barry will get off

[Glenn]

Common sense says he shouldn't have a case to answer, but since when what the tribunal and common sense gone together

[Dpw]

He should get off he has been charged with headbutting and the charge should be unduly rough play.

Define headbutting. it wasn't what Hall did IMO.

Even though I belive that it was a nothing thing - his previous record and the trail by media will give him 3 weeks and $5000 fine. (5K for undue rough play and 3 week's for the previous record)

To me it proves one thing...the umps have it in for BBBH. With all his attention (2 often 3 players on him) he very rarely gets a free, unlike a lot of other tossers (grass that is) at FF, but the slightest "transgression" gets the notepad out. Last year it was clearly documented when gouger rioli did over willo's face drawing blood and he got, what was it 2 weeks, or maybe 3...and bazza got, what was it 5, for what appeared to be a similar but less forceful hand raking...
Still, BBBH must know the maggots have it in for him, so he should just keep cool and not be drawn...
As absolutely ludicrous as BBBH's report was, it wouldn't surprise me to see Tony Shaw's bum bobbing down the Yarra sometime soon...

tony shaw already supports collingwood though

Fair point Penga.

Did anybody else find it amusing to hear Shaw criticise Pagan or more than one occasion for various things.

He was critical of some match-ups and Pagan's decision to hold a full scale physical game at training mid week, resulting in injuries. He was critical in other areas as well.

So here we have the leading contender for worst coach of the 90's telling the leading contender for best coach of the 90's how to run the show.

Classic Shaw stuff!!

[swan_song]

Be positive!!! I suppose that's one way to look at a possible suspension. Last year after Bazza's five week lay-off he came back as a new man...and played some fantastic football. Maybe he can use a break to practice how to mark the ball again...

[swan_song]

Shaw as worst coach of the 90s...hmmmm...maybe!!!! I reckon there are some other contenders in there though. Id like to nominate Gary Buckenara...and Col Kinnear...

AS

He plays for Essendon - see also Cupido kneeing a prone player in the back, Lloyd punching a player (not very hard) in the stomach, Allesio standing on Baker's foot, Barnard nearly knocking Osborne's head of etc, etc, etc.

When you see the leniancy that essendon get at the tribunal it really is astounding that they have twice the number of suspensions compared to an average club. they really are dirty pricks and have been ever since I first watched a game...and probably before.

You took the words right out of my mouth...it's just one of the many reasons I HATE em...

Collingwood and Essendon are tarred with the same brush always getting off for wrongs they do. Let's hope this time they do look the right way at Barry Hall and consider the work he does. I feel as a Swans supporter and re runs of the tape - he has no case to answer.

Can't wait for the answer.

It looks to me from the picture as if Barry was trying to see where Beaumont's heart was!

Obviously he found he had no ticker.

I hope now that the Bulldogs can salvage a few more wins and put the Blues back to where they belong.

Given our bad luck, i reckon he'll get a week.
