Not surprised Barmby got reported if it was for the incident in the last quarter that started North's run of goals. Given his record, anything more than a reprimand would be excessive though.

Sutherland, I'm hoping for a reprimand but wouldn't be surprised if he gets a week.

Parry's up again, fresh off his last holiday :shock:

Absolute idiot, hope they throw the book at him

Am thinking the same. Had a shocking record prior to his indiscretion at Noarlunga. If he's guilty then I'd suspect a fair loading based on his priors.

Given his record, anything more than a reprimand would be excessive though.From memory there was an equally late "charge" by a North player just in front of the grandstand - maybe in the second quarter. I know I'm a tad vague here but does anyone recall the incident? - I would have thought it was on par with Barmby's

[Aerie]

Have had a look at these on the replay.

IMO:
Parry not guilty of whatever the charge is
Cicolella should probably get a week.
Grocke not guilty.

Oh, and Fielke, not guilty.

But hey, who knows - the SANFL is becoming AFLish.

The one against South he deserved three games if not more.

However Saturdays as I've said on the Eags V Westies was just a bloke that tackled a player hard, unfortunately he slung him to the side and these days its a game.

Unfortunately for Parry, precedence has been set with the suspension of Walker, and he should get 1 match. I'm not entirely comfortable with either getting games because, although they were sling tackles, they weren't the malicious acts we see at times in the AFL.

Having said that, I welcome the abolition of the sling tackle because, although neither player was hurt but Walker and Parry's tackle, the potential is there for serious damage to occur. It's unnecessary to throw an opponent to the ground, and maybe if the umpires blew the whistle quicker, it wouldn't happen so often.

A player has his opponent wrapped up .. no whistle .. he can't keep holding him so what does he do? He flings him to the ground. Umpires, blow the whistle quicker, don't stand there watching.

Very good point. Spelly also made the point of players putting their head in dangerous positions to gain a free kick. These constant rule changes/interpretations often have consequences that are not so obvious at the time.

Because the player will attempt to break free of the tackle.

[The Sleeping Giant]

And if he does, whats the problem?

This delayed whistle was another change in umpiring directives. So often the whistle is not blown because it was felt that the play becomes more crowded if the ball-up is called quicker. Instead, the ball goes nowhere for longer because the ball is given "every opportunity" to get out of the pack.

this is another thing that confuses players.

so sick of all these changes

good god, I agree with you completely!

[Kahuna]

From memory there was an equally late "charge" by a North player just in front of the grandstand - maybe in the second quarter. I know I'm a tad vague here but does anyone recall the incident? - I would have thought it was on par with Barmby's

George Thring on Kyle Jenner or Josh Walduter? Round arm punch to the stomach after the kick.

Punches to the guts don't seem to raise an eyebrow with umpires these days. I've seen several this season, and not one reported.

Well, they have this time AH with Jason Sutherland suspended for 1 game after 'hitting' Cain Ackland.

[Adelaide Hawk]

Agree with the Grocke decision, not sure about 2 for Perry, thought 1 would have sufficed, and can someone tell me what Cicolella was reported for? I must have missed it.

Off the ball bump. Left Logan Hill dazed for a while. Was about 15-20 metres away from the ball and unnecessary.
