Re: Welcome to the Bulldogs: Jordon Sweet
We can't even get a 30 second highlights clip of the game, yet there is behind the play footage of Sweet striking a guy. Ok.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Yep, in the best tradition of wrestling Jordan must have gone out on the field with a foreign object hidden in his shorts.

Not good to concuss a player.

Re: Welcome to the Bulldogs: Jordon Sweet
The bye makes the suspension even worse. A month out of footy is quite a whack.
We haven’t seen anything this harsh since that animal Redpath killed someone onfield (which to the naked eye looked more like brushing someone heavily but he must have died based on the suspension).

It's bloody dangerous. Then again it cant be any more dangerous than elbowing a player and then punching him in the head as he falls to the ground like Dangerfield did.
If Sweet's surname was Dangerfield or Rievoldt or any of the other charmed circle of players that the AFL have deemed can do no wrong he wouldn't have got 3 weeks.

Did that Redpath hit on Phil Davis happen the same night as that little grub Greene kicked Dahlhaus in the face and got off. Great effort MRP.

Steady on. They came down hard and whacked the karate kid with a whopping $1500 fine to deter him ever doing it again.

Damned good point, AC.
With our evolving rucking situation, we need Sweet to be getting as much experience under his belt as possible, knocking on the door for a go at the top level. There's no place in any team for behaviour as bad as this has been judged to be. Hopefully Jordon learns to toe the line following this.
Following this episode, if he hasn't already a nickname, maybe it could be Jordon "Notso" Sweet?

Sorry but that hardly compares to the vicious intent that the criminal Easton Wood death slapped cows McGovern in the heart for a rightful suspension.

Re: Welcome to the Bulldogs: Jordon Sweet
Let’s hope a similarly callous display isn’t seen this week.

You're right. I constantly assume the worst of the AFL's intentions.
They really did come done on Greene hard didn't they? I'd forgotten how terrifying the prospect of a $1500 fine would be to a kid earning 6-700k a year. I'm surprised that he has the strength of character and the intestinal fortitude to be back playing only a couple years after such an ordeal Personally I'd still be coiled up in the foetal position rocking back and forth and repeating "1500!" over and over again.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
