    Provocation has never been accepted as a defence.

    Funny you say that because it was discussed on radio and it was used as a defence and accepted, cant remember the player at the minute but his daughter was mentioned as the provocation reason.

    I think it must be in the rules now that provocation is an allowed defence. I know it's different, but in country football I witnessed a rather low comment that ended up in a player getting knocked out. But he got off because of it. Rather funny story, not sure if I should share it though.

    According to Hutchy on FC Gia is lucky not to get suspended for his bump on Lewis(and this is after they showed the replay about 5 times).

    And no one corrected him either.

    And the bump had been replayed over & over & over again, not just during the game, but the news, all footy shows........

    Besides the Gia thing to be fair to Hutchy he is saying he can't understand the difference. Basically he has the intelligence of a 10y.o. What is hard to understand about the rule?

    The lions accepted the sanctions for McGrath and Clark. Good call by them, and good news for us! Play on.
