Pity the poor bastards playing them this week

I would be of the assumption that they'd only be retarded for the current season, you want your 10 strongest clubs playing in the strongest division and so forth.

I meant 10 points for the 10 weeks worth of suspensions

objection...speculation.

So what exactly is their punishment? They stay in Div 1 and not play finals, which was looking likely anyway.

Yeah, I hadn't delved into it that much.

Having read the attachment does anyone know what the girl from Port Adelaide did who wasn't reported but copped two weeks suspension for misconduct at the tribunal That tickled my funny bone and sent my imagination on a little journey

Generally it's when a witness and/or advocate misleads the Tribunal or is otherwise abusive to the Tribunal.

I pictured a full blown tanti because her partner got suspended...

Al Pacino style "You're out of order, Kernahan you're out of order, this whole tribunal is out of order"

It's official.

8 points deducted from each team, 2 suspended...

Throws the relegation race wide open.

Surely their points count against relegation, just punish them to not make the finals, putting them to div 2 achieves nothing.

In the danger zone....., % should help

They were not going to make finals, so from that perspective they are not being penalised at all. Might be hard for Salisbury North to avoid relegation because they have to play the 3 top teams. The other game is against SHOC which could decide who goes down and who stays up.

This also effectively comes close to locking in the top 5. Unusual for it to be more or less set with four rounds to play!

Just when rocs beat em and end their season with an unlikelyness of making finals, they're now rising from the grave as angry as ever with everyone in sight to avoid relegation. Look out pnu!

Did something happen at Salisbury North?

Just a quote from the story on Adelaide Now:

Have played against this bloke twice this year and he's an absolute thug! Couldn't have happened to a better bloke! I don't think there will be too many shedding a tear for the bloke. I do feel for his team mates. Most of them were good blokes and just wanted to play good, hard footy. Only takes one nuffy to ruin it for everyone!

And this one:

To get 8 matches, he must have almost killed the other player, or has the league got something against the club? Plus it also looks like they are having two bites of the cherry with the misconduct charge as well as the striking charge. From the outside one would think Salisbury North has been singled out and made an example of them by the league, I just hope this is not the case, but it does appear that way. Plus it virtually ends the players career with the 10 games suspension, with the life ban for suspensions now in place.

Ugh, never much fun.

Could get ugly given their payment system

What's their payment system ? I can't see the hawks being relegated I think they will do enough to stay up. It would t be fair on the div 2 clubs if the hawks were relegated would it.
