I can't believe Luke Power got off. He started it.

Even you know its Richmond who always get shafted & other clubs always get let off
Especially if your name is Chris Judd  ::). You cut someone's cheek open swinging an elbow back yet the MRP say the force wasn't large enough to warrant a report  ???. Compare that to Martin being robbed of the Rising Star award for a bump that did no damage ::).

Kingy was blamed by the ump in charge for starting the melee FF.

Yet Jackson's headbutt on Brown was of sufficient force to demand 3 weeks.  Not fair dinkum the MRP.  >:(

Yeah, I heard him blame King. He's wrong. Power grabbed King first for no reason.

Was the right time IMO galvanised the group before half-time.

As far as the AFL goes - good luck getting it taken down and moreso fining someone. Its a very complex legal issue for more than one reason.

The security camera's at the ground are very high tech, that person who took that video would have been enlarged not long after the AFL got wind of it & also the TV stations who own the rights. l bet he / she will be hunted down & prosecuted & its a stupid act which could lead to a ban on simple things like the mobile phone

i stuffen doubt it.....
