Baker getting one week for hitting Johnson's hand is a joke. Nothing in that.

Matt79 · 28-06-2010, 09:27 AM

So, getting in before the headline writers of tomorrow, that would be a "Baker's Dozen"???

I'll get my coat.

Am guessing you didn't watch Footy Classified then...

benchmark00 · 28-06-2010, 09:32 AM

Or read FOX SPORTS | Sports news Australia | Australian sports by the looks of it itbt.

Typical slow Collingwood supporter itbt.

Matt79 · 28-06-2010, 09:33 AM

Nah, got better things to do with my time.

You have to get up pretty early in the morning to be in on the baker puns...

vic_orthdox · 28-06-2010, 09:37 AM

Matt's were fairly stale, tbf...

Matt79 · 28-06-2010, 09:38 AM

I thought it might get a rise, but it all came unbun...

Johnners · 28-06-2010, 06:00 PM

What's the actual charge they're giving him re: hitting Johnsons hand? Contrary conduct or something of the sort? Just seems a bit stupid imo, if Johnson was still on the field with an injured hand...that's his fault

vic_orthdox · 28-06-2010, 08:58 PM

I think they've called it "misconduct".

I could see a fine as being appropriate, but not games. Especially considering that he's not in the hands of trainers.

Jono · 28-06-2010, 09:01 PM

Did this rule come about after Scott (can't remember which one) bumped Riewoldt after he did his shoulder back in 2005?

vic_orthdox · 28-06-2010, 09:04 PM

Don't think that there's any particular rule, it's just an interpretation of "misconduct".

If it were applied consistently, Jack Riewoldt should have gotten at least something for punching Tayte Pears' arm the week he returned from a broken arm.

Jono · 28-06-2010, 10:55 PM

Yeah exactly what I was thinking.

SirBloody Idiot · 28-06-2010, 11:27 PM

Is there a difference between an injury suffered in the match or beforehand? Reckon you're fair game if you come in under an injury cloud.
