Robinson one week, Murphy and White no charge.

Hey looks like the "all ages" policy is finally starting to attract the kids.

Or maybe im a troll, citywest or haven't been a member of ss as long as you.

Or maybe i just don't think Roo is the most courageous St.kilda player in it's history.

If Murphy was a St Kilda player and was suspended, I'd be pissed off. But Robinson deserved time. Agree with MRP (this time).

I would like to see video of roo's 2011 suspension...my memory has it the player ran into him and was taken from ground

The traffic is building with each thrashing. Standard thing. We all have a lot to say when getting done and little when we are winning.

Did our club doctor escape sanction for allowing Roo back on?

If the AFL are OK with the decision then they need to review the concussion ruling.

Any player who looses consciousness, even for second MUST be subbed out/not return to the field of play. Any further hits to the head God only knows what would happen.
Sorry I'm passionate about this issue as I have a health work background, plus my brother had a significant head injury that took over a year to recover from. Also Kosi. Need I say anymore.

Saintspremiers - agree that the club should be fined. Sad to say. Was watching Nick when he came back on and he was lost.

That's a few of us on here that agree. it's hard for Roo. He's the ultimate warrior, but the medicos must have the final say, and must not be pressured from player nor coach or administration.

As I said at the time ... He would have both arms and both legs cut off and tell them all it was "only a flesh wound" and demand to be put back on the ground.

Reminds me a bit of Life Of Brian......"Always look on the bright side of life! ".

Murphy and White both lucky.

They say that Riewoldt was pushed into Murphy, but I don't think it changed his momentum at all. But if you do accept that Roo was pushed forward, does that mean if he wasn't pushed Murphy was just going to run past the contest without making any contact or any attempt to go for the ball.

White's contact on Dunstan didn't look "accidental". There may have been some bad luck involved in Dunstan being turned around at the last moment but if you go to bump, especially 50m off the ball, and make contact with the head then you should be held accountable.
