Would expect at least 6 months for assault....

Norwood's Nathan Bassett and Jace Bode found guilty of assaulting West coach Andy Collins. Collins pleaded guilty to abusive language

Can you be found guilty of assault by the sanfl tribunal?

Obviously, yes, otherwise the charge wouldn't have been laid...

Never heard of anyone being found guilty of assault before.

Yeah, good point, but I don't think there has been an 'incident' such as this before? !!!

[teaoby]

I seem to remember a Norwood player and a scuffle in an opposition bench? Haha

[Johno6]

Would've been a pillow fight if anything.

Can you be found guilty of assault by the sanfl tribunal?

Yes they can. Assault is intentionally punching someone which carries big suspensions. And also assault is a send off offence.

Words are words. Assault is unacceptable.

[kickinit]

$5,000 fine for assault yeh seems reasonable.

[teaoby]

Do we all not tell our kids, if some little turd is mouthing off or being rude to you. IGNORE THEM! BE THE BIGGER MAN! Violence is never the answer!

Another interesting tweet from James. Seems like Bassett was pretty close to being suspended...

@JCoventry
Panel reluctantly agreed to fine Bassett instead of suspending him after submissions from the #SANFL and Collins

[Big Phil]

From the SANFL, including a brief comment from Chris Davies...

Looks like Collins had the best defence tonight...reminds me of the way his team plays!

I am sure many Redleg supporters are looking forward to our next game against West at Richmond on Saturday 8 June...
