Tribunal / suspensions 2024

Re: Tribunal / suspensions 2024

Agree. I?d much rather healthy, informed debate, but in today?s society everything?s black or white (no racial slur intended), and the ideas of nuance and sound logic are thrown out the window. Outrage-o-meter aka what gains clicks is de rigueur.

This offends me.

Obviously. I can't believe they challenged it. But then again they probably thought if Maynard can send their club champion into retirement with a similar action, then why not!

Finlayson three weeks.

Sounds incredibly harsh when you consider Clarko got zero and has a history of verbal abuse.

Good, tough stance as they should as there is no room for that garbage. As for Clarko, the AFL fkd up and should have given him a much tougher penalty.

Re: Tribunal / suspensions 2024

Any ideas what the slur was?

Just wanting to know how much worse than the homophobic/ derogatory term Clarkson used it was.

Or how much worse than what Dane Zorko said to Harrison Petty when the latter was left in tears.........

It supposedly was the f word. Which is definiltey worse than what Clarko said. But still hard to accept that repeat offender Clarko, with a history of anger management issues got zero weeks.

Re: Tribunal / suspensions 2024

I'd be taking it straight to appeal and then to the courts if I was Port and Finlayson. Penalties on the fly aren't OK.

The AFL needs to hand over a fine as they did to Clarkson, and release prescribed penalties this week as a line in the sand.

If three weeks is the number, so be it, but it has to be from this point onwards.

This is puzzling to get 3 weeks.

Re: Tribunal / suspensions 2024

Danny Zorko made someone cry on the field and got nothing! Literally made someone cry because of the horrible things he apparently said.

Now I'm OK with whatever penalty the AFEL thinks is required in the future, but you can't just Todd Curley someone because it suits an agenda.

To be fair to Clarko, his homophobic slur was more inclusive - women can do it as well.
