Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light. -
I think that the club should appeal it. It clearly wasnt deliberate, Goodes was clearly going for the ball but got there a fraction too late. It could have just as easily been the other player going into Goodes.Occupational hazards:

Gerard Whately and Robbo can go and shove their show up their arse. If you think that's worth a suspension then you're bigger pussies than the MRP. NRL fans are laughing at you idiots...And the Swans are the Premiers...The Ultimate Team...The Ultimate Warriors. They have overcome the highly fancied Hawks in brilliant style.

Robbing a legend of breaking a record at his home ground because of some nothing incident that should have been a free kick and nothing more. We'll challenge and we'll win, I'm confident of that.Comment

Trial by media. Blown out of proportion completely. Whilst it didnt look good, it was nothing compared to Franklin's trip.Comment

I love Goodsey but I thought he is silly to tackle like that and deserves a week for stupidity.Comment

Cameron Mooney wrote a great article in the Geelong Advertiser today about the need for rules to protect players from injuries but not to be so harsh on players for when they do something 'wrong'. There has to be room for errors in the game, especially in instances where nobody gets injured. This decision makes me so angry, what is wrong with just giving a free kick, letting Goodes know he can't do that and just get on with the game?! Besides they both slid in with their knees, it just happened that goodes came after the other guy. I mean it is a contact sport for Christ sakes, and based on what they've done here, I really fear where the game is headed.
And apparently he has accepted the ban.Comment

What makes me mad is that the media judge and jury keep saying he had to be charged because he has a history of it. First of all the history translates to one incident in the NAB Cup and secondly I thought that the player did not get reported and or charged based on history, but reported/charged based on the incident and the penalty was then based on the history. It is a media beat up for sure.Comment

No player was hurt and if Buddies delibrate trip got nothing surely this should have got nothing too. Disgusting i can understand the head high contact rules, no-one was hurt from the incident its a free kick and no other consequences. Infact buddies trip was not even looked at by the MRP.Comment

Agree he deserves a week for stupidity - this is becoming like the glancing bumps he was getting cited for a couple of years ago. Meaningless, lazy contact that he keeps repeating and won't learn from. He got a reprimand in the NAB Cup and then goes and does it again.
It's just incredibly frustrating that for the bruise-free player he is, he gets multiple suspensions (including those he was able to turn into reprimands) for incidents that barely inconvenience the victim. And worse he adds to his poor record which will really hurt if he clumsily does something similar again.
I'd be staggered if we appealed, I can't see on what basis - which of the following would we be disputing: negligent conduct (one point), low impact (one point) and body contact (one point)?Comment

Yeah surely there is enough questions in this to raise a logical argument to get Goodes off. Know one was Hurt, both players slid in, since when do we suspend based on what may have happened etc etc. A reprimand at best really. Challenge !!Comment
