Bravo Mark Williams

Yates ..... intentional charge, off the ball, sole intent to injure his opponent .... if it happened today maybe 6 weeks?

Another discussion question - if it happened today and he got 6 weeks would we be up in arms ... or think it's fair enough? Sounds like that Saints player off the ball on Jeff Farmer last season = 7 weeks. I can't remember much "the game's gone soft" comments when that happened in 2007?

I'm all for tough footy but I don't think I need to see broken ribs or punctured lungs to feel its a "tough" game.

I think time makes us glamorise or glorify past incidents that actually were fairly ugly and ordinary if you take a cold, hard look back at them.

Burgoyne was guilty.........no question.....

and even as a Port Supporter my feeling is deal with it..........and Choco needs to get over it and keep his mouth shut..................

he doesnt do himself of the club any favours.......

well said

Speech writer Wedgie ? Port Adelaide people speak from the heart mate, not from the A4

Obviously coach the same way, ie no thought or preparation looking at last year's grand final result too!

How do you think they got their then genius, 22 home & away games a couple of finals I'd say a hell of alot of thought and preperation. Im guessing your one of those types who think you need a degree to do anything.
Why dont you open a basketball thread it seems to be right up your alley

Obviously not enough looking at this scoreline:

Geelong 24.19 163
Port 6.8 44

How did this thread go from being about Shaun Burgoyne's suspension and Mark Williams' comments to an 'all hail Geelong' thread?

BTW - anyone see last night's scores?

Quite simple, if it wasn't for Shaun Burgoyne and Mark Williams noone would be hailing Geelong as they still wouldn't have won a premierhip in our liftimes.

Crikey, its not like we're on the Power Board!

Bollocks - the Cats would've beaten anyone. Maybe not by as much, but anyone. Damn good side and a delight to watch.

And you don't have to be on the Power board to be off topic.

I think its very on topic, I myself was quoting exactly what this topic's title is last September.
