Hawthorn dogged on Kosi

[Quixote]

Did anyone hear this??

Very, very briefly suggested on Footy Classified was that Kosi got a week as a result of Hawthorn releasing that pansy Osborne's medical report (post jumper punch) to the AFL. Hence the upgraded severity of the charge.

Alluded this was the difference between the Didak and Kosi incidents.

Also quietly stated that this is against the 'unwritten law' or 'gentlemanly code' of the game.



Hawthorn DOGGED US!!!



Those sniping pretty-boys!! Led by the number one sniper just about ever - angry midget Clarkson!! The Battle of Britain anyone?? He spent three quarters being chased by the opposition for his dog antics!!



No respect for that mob - couldn't be happier that clubs have cottoned on to their genius coaching tactics and smacked them four out their last eight outings.

Yup, that;s how it looked to me. What a bunch of squealers.

[bigcarl]

they're worried about us. see us as a threat. we'll fix them up again if we get to play them in september.

[Saint Mik]

Kossi should know better than to put himself in that position, a bit like Didak they both got sucked in and Kossi paid the price.

Not good enough really, could end up costing us a decent shot at a top 4 position.

I love Kossi but it hurts when you miss a week over something as stupid as a jumper punch.

He had better perform this week and get us back into contention.

Kosi is not smart enough to be stupid.
Got great football talent when born but unfortunately god was all out of smarts .

[Saint Mik]

You can take the kid out of the country

[bobmurray]

A real piece of work that......
F*** the Hawks...............

Maybe the Saints will get the chance to repay them,some time in the future,when they are expecting support to get one of theirs off at the tribunal.......

[Griggsy]

i still blame the tribunal for inconsistency. didak should either of been penalised or kosi not at all.

[plugger66]

I think you will find the tribunal ask for a medical report. Should they refuse to give it. We blame the tribunal, the umps the commentators what about Kosi it was just plain stupid, what about Rooys kicking and so on. One flag in 111 years suggest that maybe it is more than outsiders fault.

Maybe if we said stuff everyone else and had the arrogance of some other clubs we may have more success. The worst part of what is likely to happen in the next 5 years is Carlton look much more likely to win a flag than we do in that period.

[jk23]

Maybe we should have sent a medical report about Kosi's head injury, but yet again nothing happened, no report , I don't blame Kosi that hawk just ramned him into the fence the same as Lenny a few years ago and broke his wrist when he was ramned by a lion player, again no report! Lenny was out for weeks.

If you thought the competition wasn't a level playing field then it would be just as easy to use the lack of success as evidence of that too.

Anyone that's followed this club for more than 5 minutes knows that we've been right royally screwed with plenty of decisions handed down from AFL House. And for a long period of time. I can't think of too many 'lucky' decisions that have fallen our way over the years.

Having said that though, anyone with even a fleeting interest in St Kilda knows we've made many poor decisions over the years and that the only thing we do consistently is shoot ourselves in the foot.

You can hold both views - they aren't mutually exclusive.

In fact I'd argue they are inextricably linked.

The AFL treats their customers like fools because most are fools. Football supporters for the most part don’t give a continental if the competition has integrity provided the field is tipped in their favour.

Unfortunately for us we are a minor player and even more unfortunate for us supporters is that we have a long history of limp wristed administrators that rarely take on city hall. When we do it usually ill-considered or poorly targeted.

Is it any wonder though when we have so many apologists that are prepared to take it up the arse?

[SainterX]

Didak could murder someone and still get away with it.

Simple as that.

Or at least associate with a murderer

Calling yourself ace is a moronic self appraisal...how would u know

Exactly right, we make ourselves a bit player, it plays right into their hands, the harder you work the luckier you get, we just don't work hard enough
