Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless. -

So what about Hodges strike to the Geelong players kidneys on Friday night? Did that even get a mention or did Hodgey get off on the Top Bloke rule?
I found it amazing that the ch 7 commentators didnt say a peep about their good mate and fellow top bloke employer after they showed it once. Nor did ch 7 replay it like they do nothing incidents to try and make a scandal out of it.
I was waiting for "Lingy" to defend his mate and call him a courages top bloke, but alas they left me hanging.Comment

I skipped a heap of others, forgot to listen to Hartigan, wasn't bothered with the Hawks ones, but no Hawk got suspended.Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.Comment

What a crock.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.Comment

Hartigan got a fine.Comment

A fair few fines handed out.
Come finals, they should reduce the number of fines and convert them to suspensions as a deterrent to stupid infield actions (I'm looking squarely at the Hawks & GWS!)Comment

This from the MRP re; Mummy tackle on Tippett: "Tippett's right shoulder and right side of his body make contact with the turf, while his head does not hit the ground at any stage during the tackle," the MRP said in its findings. Are they serious? They can say this with a straight face? This statement has about as much credibility as some of Trump's crap, but I suppose they reckon their demographic is about as stupid (and biased!) as Trump's supporters........and they're probably right.

MRP
I am not usually a critic of the MRP - but their rationale for no action on the Mumford tackle on Tippett has me baffled. I've extracted some of it below.
A key point according to the MRP is that Tippett's head made no contact with the ground during the tackle. I can see Tippett's head bouncing off the ground in the video (makes me wince every time I look at it). Are they saying this happened after the tackle was completed so doesn't count?
His head only hit the ground because of the tackle - he was banged into the ground so hard that, without any opportunity to protect himself (because Mumford had his arm pinned) the momentum then caused his head to bounce off the ground.
Am I imagining Tippett's head hitting the ground when I watch the video??
"Mumford has hold of Tippett's right arm while Whitfield's tackle falls to the thing/knee area, off-balancing the Sydney player. Tippett's right shoulder and right side of his body make contact with the turf, while his head does not hit the ground at any stage during the tackle. Tippett remains on the ground after the play is completed. After discussion with the club and the receipt of a medical report, the MRP was able to determine that player Tippett had been injured in an earlier ruck contest but sustained no injury specific to this tackle. It was the view of the panel that the absence of any head contact to the ground and insufficient forceful body contact meant that no charge would be laid. No further action was taken."Comment
