Chook lotto this week
As there is no precedence taken in to account SJ in trouble ( his name is not Judd and the AFL know Geelong will make finals)
SJ 4 down to 3
SB 1 for strike to head, charged with stomach punch will get off on lack of force
Mooney - Will getoff lack of force.
Fisher - 2 weeks as every week Fraser makes a ridiculous decision and this will be it.

I didn't say Fisher deserves a week I said any contact deserves a week. If Fisher made ANY contact then he deserves to go.

Around a minute into the video he mentions some sort of introduced rule about hitting an injured player.... Have not heard of this, can anyone shed some light?

Don't believe the descriptions in various press reports Vince (ranging from a push to a punch!), if you didn't take into account Bartel's response (go forth & multiply), the contact was more fitting someone saying "you ok mate?". While this was clearly not the case, the contact was so minimal that if Chips has to face any ramifications it will be farce.Milan Faletic wrote:Probably better to comment on an incident if you actually saw it, Vincesaint vince wrote:If you go back to my original statement and not distort it I said any contact in that situation deserves a week.saint vince wrote: Fisher is a bit different as Bartel was coming off and in the hands of the trainers.

The Geelong mafia in the Melbourne media are up & about this week, don't worry about that.
Depends on the angle, the first view looks almost like he didn't make contact at all, the other angle from side on shows him punching the top of his arm and Bartel having a go at him.rodgerfox wrote:Yeah, although it was so minimal that I'd be surprised and really disappointed if anything was to come from Fisher's.Thinline wrote:Agree RF, but I think the first bit refers to Fisher's bump on Bartel as he was being helped from the field.
Didn't like it....

Once someone is in the hands of the trainers they should be left alone. Verbal spray I could cope with, but not touching them or even attempting to touch them. I didn't notice it at the game and only noticed it watching the replay after getting home. I was disappointed to see Fisher doing such a thing. Not sure if he actually did make contact but he certainly attempted to. Not a good look. We would certainly expect our players to be left alone if any of them were in the hands of the trainers. There was actually a trainer on each side of him. Clearly not participating in the game....unlike the Riewoldt example in Brisbane years ago where he had waved the trainers away.
Hopefully nothting will come of it. I will be really disappointed if he facing official sanctions for it, but I don't like to see anyone from my club acting that way.

I can't believe what I read on here sometimes.
I don't want the players to be well liked by opposition supporters or players, I want them to be thought of the same way Scarlett is thought of, respectively a good player but a so and so of a bloke on the ground...
I want a premiership nothing else, how do you know what Fish copped earlier from Bartel, who is no angel by the way, I would back Fish's character any day...

I hope you are mistaken, that would seem slightly excessive.JacksonsGirl wrote:Im hearing 8-9 for Baker.
Watch this space
That said nothing the AFL does should suprise.
This is the same organisation that changed the result of the game 3 days after the event even though the laws of the game dictate that they couldn't.
Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends.

You were wrong, 9 with an early guilty plea, 14 with an unsuccesful challenge.
This is quite possibly one of the most ludicrous findings I've ever seen.

There is a STICKY where you can send a message to Bakes and the club.
Please make use of it and keep it clean.
