[NO-MERCY]

Sorry Chicky must of posted the same time!

I didnt say it was a fair decision.

But there are always 2 sides to every story.

Of course there are 2 sides to the story, what is disappointing is that the Tribunal bend over backwards for one and walk all over the other based on their word against his.

Sorry Felch I didn't mean to imply that you meant that. It's pretty obvious that this Rowlands guy got the runner going for some reason, not many people get physical without cause. So that certainly wouldn't help his defence.

I don't understand how you can say it's a disgrace NS. If you can take a deep breath and think about it logically you'll realise that the tribunal almost have their hands tied by the situation. Don't find anyone guilty and they're setting a precedent for other snipers (I'm not claiming this guy is a sniper by the way ) to go out and hit guys behind the play and get away with it and there'll be broken jaws at ever game; give him 8 games (or otherwise tell Havens to present the player that did do it and give him a suspension instead) and strongly send the message that you'll miss half a season for not controlling yourself. In a system like the Amateur league the deterent factor of suspensions and the precedents they set are essentially the only way the game is kept clean. Even with them there are suspensions every week.

It's just something that we all have to live with. The annoying part is the inconsistency of the penalties...but I guess that's a whole other can of worms

what if it was broken in a marking contest and they are just blaming some other incident

[bucketts]

who's "us" ouzo? Western suburbs teams? Would you say they're consistantly screwing northern suburbs teams too?

correct me if i'm wrong are you not from paoc, who dobbed in players to tynte st for having a p!ss

[Super Coach]

Spoke to Rolla last night at length. He was devastated! He told me both witnesses the pultney player described the alleged incident occurring in 3 different positions of the field. Pultney player could not identify the player who allegedly hit him.

He was told that if he pleaded not guilty there would be a formal inquest at north haven and the club could be fined heftily. Or they wanted a north haven player had to go to the tribunal and own up to the alleged incident.

They did not for 1 second believe that the broken jaw could have happened in any other way!!!

Rolla said that he would not have the club's name be dragged through mud and if a scape goat was required so a decision was made, he would plead Guilty. He told them that he at no point recalled being involved in the incident and that he had never been reported in the decade that he had played in the SAAFL.

Are you trying to say that he pleaded guilty, even though he didnt do it ???

Bullsh!t !!!!

he was given no choice

Where has piccachu gone? I miss his daily updates on the goings on of young boys in the area. Maybe he is trapped in a public toilet somehwere, I think someone should file a missing persons report.
Missing - Man known only as 'Piccachu', last seen in the vicinity of Nazer Reserve wearing long brown trenchcoat, dark glasses, no noticeable pants and long lensed slr camera.

He was given no choice??? What kind of club you got there that doesn't back its own player who is supposedly innocent??? Both he and the club had a choice, IMO they chose the weak way out

Agreed.....................that Portland runner was a bit weird from memory!! [/quote]

The Portland runner was dealt with accordingly. He had 'Runner' written on his shirt, but it should have read 'Brisk Walker'. [/quote]

Felch, are you the 'runner' each week.............or does that depend on whether your coach plays or not?

[bulldogs]

[amber_fluid]

only 2 of us from portland
more north haven blokes on here these days!

[piccachu]

pooraka are a good mob, but on the other hand portland isnt the easiest oval to play on for away sides, also portland have a habbit of beating sides that are much higher than them on the ladder specially at home so it should make for a good game.

I think that mankini has cut off the circulation to your brain fisty, it will be a great game but I reckon Pooraka would have to be hot favourites.

It's hard not to agree with me I make so much f*cking sense.

The budget has tipped the mighty dolphins over haven this week. Interesting 3rd plays 7th at home and is the underdog.
