Its taken 3 and a half hours for anyone to respond to this thread and one month ago it would have been flooded by people responding they hoped he would be let off, how important Cogs is, he needs luck etc.
I think, unfortunately, that shows us where his career is heading!

It is Saturday though GR12 and people have been doing other things.......

Nevertheless I can honestly say I have no real opinion on this other than hope he gets off but won't lose any sleep if he is not.

Watched the same game and haven't seen a worse display of umpiring in a long time.  Eagles deserved to win by 10 goals.

Title: Coughlan cleared of headbutting charge (Age)

Coughlan cleared of headbutting charge
June 30, 2009 - 8:39PM

Richmond midfielder Mark Coughlan is free to try to revive his AFL career after being cleared of headbutting by the VFL tribunal on Tuesday night.

Coughlan was reported on a misconduct charge after he became involved in a scuffle with St Kilda-listed player Colm Begley during a VFL game last Saturday.

But the VFL tribunal found Coughlan not guilty of the charge, which gives him the chance to earn back his place in the Tigers' side.

Coughlan has endured a wretched three years since he suffered a serious knee injury halfway through the 2006 season, as his recovery and subsequent chronic hamstring problems prevented him playing in 2007-08.

He played six AFL games this season and averaged 19 disposals, but was dropped after the defeat to the Western Bulldogs in round 11.

Coughlan won Richmond's 2003 best and fairest award, but the 27-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and faces an uncertain future given the Tigers will be making a fresh start under Terry Wallace's successor as fulltime coach.
