Of course it wasnt reported in Perth. The Perth football media are as biased towards the WA sides as the Adelaide media is to the SA clubs. Ever compared a Perth match's commentary to that of one played anywhere else? Channel 10, ABC both reported the use of the photographic evidence - and its vali...

point out where i said baker was RUNNING in front of farmer..... then i'll apologise purple. Baker claimed he was running from Fremantle's half-back flank on the interchange side in front of Farmer, heading down the wing but slightly towards the Fremantle goal. Baker said he had initially been abou...

Well do you always take the position of your fellow Anchors? For God's sake mate, perhaps YOU are wrong? Ever considered that? Baker ran off on a dummy lead and stopped to steal Farmer's momentum. Farmer was not smart enough to figure it out, ran into the back of Baker and came off worse. His fault...

If farmer cant remember what happened, he shouldnt be testifying at the hearing, should he!? But, instead, he claims for days he cant remember, then as soon as it goes to the Tribunal - all of a sudden he remembers? Not only that, but remembers WRONG! Sorry, am I missing something here? He was call...

Spot on Maxi put it this way in simple legal terms. If the car in front of you suddenly stops and you cannon into it guess what you are guilty of careless driving. Why? Because you should be travelling at such a distance that you should be able to stop if you have to. Except if you're driving in on...

Unfortunately, precedents aren't allowed at the tribunal. One of the more stupid rules they have in place.yipper wrote:Absolutely spot on - great example. So - who changed the interpretations since then?? Awareness and expectation of contact. It is a body contact sport and blocking is allowable as a defender.

So, the complete reverse of the Kosi-Gia situation now applies. Giansiracusa was not cited on the basis that Kosi's lack of awareness of someone coming in from the side was at fault. Now Baker bares responsibility because Farmer lacked awarenes of what was directly in front of him? I'm not arguing ...

Actually, Voss initially said he did see it, then when his co-commentator mentioned that he may be called as a tribunal witness he did his best to backtrack. And I have that on video. Yes, Voss is a goose, but that doesn't change what he saw or what he said. . Actually you area fool as well as a TR...

I'm looking at it like this, at the most basic level. Fact 1: Baker admitted to making contact with Farmer. Fact 2: Said contact broke Farmer's nose and concussed him to the point he couldn't stand up by himself, let alone walk off the ground. Fact 1: Two players made contact with each other. Fact ...

No PurpleJesus, Baker did not admit causing the collision. What Baker admitted was that he got in front of Farmer and STOPEED. Farmer then cannoned into him and apparently did thte damage when his head clashed with the back of Baker's head. THE TRIBUNAL ACCEPTED THIS EVIDENCE Therefore your whole p...

Voss said he didn't see it at first - then said he did, then, again, later said he didn't see it!! Voss made a tool of himself and was trying to be clever me thinks. Actually, Voss initially said he did see it, then when his co-commentator mentioned that he may be called as a tribunal witness he di...

My problem is that there has been NO evidence that Baker behaved badly, as far as we can tell it was just the word of your moron Kirkwood (which was thrown out for the bulltish it was) and Farmer who claims he was standing still and got hit from the side (universally discounted, even by the tribuna...

Freo fan here. Not visiting your site to bait or troll, just to point out something that most of you seem to be missing regarding Steven Baker's suspension. The punishment he received for the Jeff Farmer incident was 4 weeks, not 7. The reason he's been suspended for 7 weeks is because of his prior ...
