Not everyone is as hard and tough as you are Curly, just like not everyone can be a 400 game legend of the sport. Cut the kid some slack, you can't expect him to be as good and as tough as you were in your outstanding & celebrated 400 game career.

Nice post Maverick. Does it piss you off I played so long? I’m sorry if it’s a issue should I have stopped at a 100 200 I don’t know give me a number. As for being celebrated let me know when these celebrations take place so I can go.

Go for it lethers. We will start go fund longy fund, if you guys don't have the money.
Do you truly believe that we will appeal?

Maybe I missed it but I can't remember a time the club ever gone the extra step and gone the 2nd appeal

The Baker decision?

Other clubs have but we always seem happy to cop it on the square with high impact on the chin

Fact is ........ we are the MRO's bitches

So many times we have been punished to set a hardline precedent or punished only for the AFL to then turn around and set a precedent to right a wrong.

We are St. Kilda and we are cursed!! :evil:

This was assessed as low impact earlier this year even though it took Heeney a lot longer to get to his feet

AFL cannot have it both ways. You cannot let Pickett off, and then suspend Long. You need consistency.

The outcome should be the same as Pickett.

I'm pretty sure that coward punch could also have the potential to cause injury.

So how many weeks did Hawkins get? 1 or 2 with a coward act like that?

The AFL makes rules and then bends and breaks them to suit their own agenda.
They said if you choose to bump and not tackle, the result, whatever occurs, is on your shoulders. Long’s result was a shake of the head to clear the cobwebs and continued playing.
2 weeks ago Sean Darcy decides to bump Naughton and the result was a fractured eye socket and no further part in the game. Not even referred to the MRP!
I bet Naughton wishes he was hit as hard as Macrae.
