Would be good if Geelong/Collingwood was on television. Shame we'll get nothing but scraps here - probably North Melbourne vs. Melbourne.

Bailey says Demons tackles within rules - SPORTS NEWS - One
OH MY GOD IT IS SIMPLE YOU CAN'T SLAM PLAYERS' HEAD INTO THE GROUND ANYMORE. jesus ****ing christ.
What I don't understand is how the tribunal said there was 'high contact'. There clearly wasn't.
when they changed the rules in 05 or whatever to get rid of that stuff one of the changes was that contact can be with the ground eg slamming a player's head into the ground is high iirc.
i heard some guy say 'high' meant the level of force too but i think that was wrong
Rules changes made to protect players | Adelaide Now
"THERE will also be stricter interpretations to dangerous tackles where a player unnecessarily and dangerously drives an opponent into the ground when their arms are pinned." i assume the high contact thing is a follow on from that
But that's merely high impact, not contact.
Surely.
The rule is broken. Universally noone thinks that should be a three week penalty, so it must be broken.
For those not following, the tribunal found that there was:
Negligent conduct
High impact
High contact X
Pretty stupid from Bailey.
The laws of the game are vague in the sense that they only refer to 'rough conduct' and nothing specific to this situation, but the video on the laws of the game released this year which pertains to rough conduct is clear. You can't do what Trengove did.
You can argue about whether or not it should be considered rough conduct, and I don't think it should, but the rule is there and it's clear.
If I were Galbally I wouldn't have even wasted my time.
'Copperfield,' said Mr. Micawber, 'farewell! Every happiness and prosperity! If, in the progress of revolving years, I could persuade myself that my blighted destiny had been a warning to you, I should feel that I had not occupied another man's place in existence altogether in vain.
- Wilkins Micawber
That can't be right. If the tribunal found that it was body contact as opposed to high contact, it would only be a level two offence, the penalty of which for rough conduct is 225 points (i.e. a two match suspension).For those not following, the tribunal found that there was:
Negligent conduct
High impact
High contact X
The MRP assessed it as high contact originally which is where the three game suspension came from, but if the tribunal has found otherwise shouldn't he only receive two matches?
