Titch cops one week from MRP [updated]

[Gigantor]

Anyone see the  elbow to the head titch dished out early in the game?...Will it come under scrutiny?

[Rampstar]

Not Guilty. besides its just a hit to the head. I was reading the new Jack Dyer book and Jack knocked out some bloke and the stretcher came off and they put the sheet over his head. Jack thought he'd killed the bloke. When Jack came off he saw Ray Dunn and told him that he thought hed killed the bloke. Dunn said dont worry its just Manslaughter, Ill get you off that easy.

Dont know why you worry about Suspensions. Getting blokes off at the tribunal is in our blood except for poor Neville Crow. And we got plenty of good lawyers around the club theses days as well.

Yeah, I reckon it might G, they'll check how much contact was made, was a bit reckless though

[YellowandBlackBlood]

It will be looked at.
Hopefully he wont get rubbed out as the contact made was minimal.
At the most, one week. Probably will get off IMHO.

[Yeahright]

  where the tribunal is a joke. He'll get harder for it being head high than plenty of nobs that intentionally jab people in the guys

A posthumous piece of literature   ?

What a crock.

It should be that the force of impact wasn't sufficient enough to be a reportable offence but with the MRP you can never know  .

"Shane Edwards can accept one match for striking Liam Sumner. Penalty impacted by six-year good record."

[WA Tiger]

Don't think he will be missed at the moment, not having a shot but he has been down, could probably do with the rest again.

Lonergen anyone????

 AFL denying him natural justice + human rights

Shane Edwards, Richmond, has been charged with a level three striking offence (225 demerit points, two-match sanction) for striking Liam Sumner, GWS Giants, during the first quarter of the Round 22 match between Richmond and the GWS Giants, played at Skoda Stadium on Sunday August 25, 2013.
 
In summary, due to a six-year good record, he can accept a one-match sanction with an early plea.
 
Based on the video evidence available and a medical report from the GWS Giants Football Club, the incident was assessed as reckless conduct (two points), medium impact (two points) and high contact (two points). This is a total of six activation points, resulting in a classification of a level three offence, drawing 225 demerit points and a two-match sanction. He has an existing six-year good record, reducing the penalty by 25 per cent to 168.75 points and a one-match sanction. An early plea reduces the sanction by 25 per cent to 126.56 points and a one-match sanction.

Been ripping it up in the two's, probably see Batch get a gig, maybe try him in a different role...

[Yeahright]

Can Lonergan even play? Who was he upgraded for? Either way hope he doesn't get a gig

How can Hockings elbow be classed the same as Titches?
One nearly killed the bloke and the other hardly touched him!!
