Dean Solomon how many weeks?

[McAlmanac]

Geez, lucky I played in the 70's....

[Sponge Bob]

Solomon a minimum of 8 and Buchanan got what he deserved for a deliberate charge.

Keep the thugs on the sidelines!

[Bubbula]

The match review panel assessed Solomon's hit as INTENTIONAL, SEVER IMPACT and HIGH CONTACT – resulting in nine activation points – enough for the case to be referred straight to the tribunal on Tuesday night with no offer of an early plea.

The 28-year-old's existing bad record of three matches suspended in the last three years and 32.81 demerit points carried over from within the last 12 months also counted against him.

My guess, considering Lingie will also miss a month of football would be 10-12 match's. Deservedly.

[hearts on fire]

Solomon has got 8 weeks!

[Thiele]

he has got 8 weeks from tribunal

[NO-MERCY]

Not surprised at all with 8 weeks, deserved every week.

[amber_fluid]

yep got what he deserved!!

[Dutchy]

and for the best news -

In the other case for the night Daniel Pratt was cleared of making unnecessary contact to the face of the Power's Brett Ebert in the Roos/Power clash on Saturday night.

On leaving the Tribunal, Pratt said he was relieved the ordeal was over.

"I'm glad I've got past that and I can now look forward to next week," Pratt said.

I love this points system, that's this case and Barry Hall's Ive virtually predicted spot on now, the current system is so simple and the best by far, I can't believe most people have issues with it.

[magpie in the 80's]

most NRL teams do

Freo are now alleged to be seeking legal advice about Solomon's suspension
I wonder if they want to try to get him off or are worried about a civil case for damages.
There should be one - it's about time.

Freo have had second thoughts about appealing and are now going to 'cop it on the chin'.
Poor choice of words come to think of it.

I was surpirsed with 8 weeks. thought he would have got 5 or 6. But hey I guess he got what he deserved.

[Rik E Boy]

I'm just happy that he'll be out for longer than Lingy. I'm not making any more comments on the Freo game.

regards,

REB

Tribunal got it spot on again, I wish the SANFL had this system. Its so easy to understand and consistent.

they adopted the system from the nrl

[JK]

I must admit, I reckon the suspension is spot on.

most NRL teams do

ofcourse NRL teams have problems with it.. You'll notice its only the teams that lose players to it though...

[best on hill]

saw soloman on the footy show last night, he is showing genuine remorse for his action and accepts any actions that come his way.(8.weeks and contract restrictions)

A leading elbow in the NRL would have got 15 weeks.
