yeah, well Robbo is a clown and an AFL stooge.

Well named me calling him Costello., Fat unfunny f***.

And a drunk to boot.🤨🤨🤨🤨
Outrageous comment. Lou Costello was a brilliant comedian. “Who’s On First “ is the greatest comedy routine ever, not just because of the brilliant simplicity of the script but his fantastic delivery .

Pick another name for Robbo. Try to be really insulting , please !

Its a shame the direction our game is heading now players will think twice about laying a bump or may possibly face suspension unless off course your a Dangerfield Lynch and co protected species.
Absolutely ruining our game

I'm not surprised. Tipped it.
It is easy to use Stkilda as a warning
There is a difference between being a power club like Collingwood or Geelong and us...It isn't even a conscious bias, it just happens...they flex on us.

Savage, Roberton and Battle should all be raring to go.


Nee!

I will give it a try.

Never found that crap about who's on first, funny. Heard it hundreds of times over the decades.

Purile juvenile rubbish imhfo.

If it was Dusty or Lynch they would have been cleared!
It pays to be a big name in a big club.

Nothing is funny after you have heard it hundreds of times .

I am seriously pissed too. Don’t worry about my comment - if you are happy with “Costello“, then go for it !

consideration given to the potential to cause injury

What the f***?

When Heath Shaw nearly broke Butler’s leg or Butts copped a potential ACL rupture where was the MRO. Furrgging useless carnts.

All year and for the last 3-4 years, common sense has gone out the door except for now!!

So from now on if you throw a punch and miss, you should be suspended.

If that is not speculation then I don't f****** know what is.

Just as f****** well our courts don't operates on that basis as we would all get locked up as potential rapists or murderers.

Would it be ungenerous to replace Long with Parker and ask him to cause serious havoc?

I get the tribunal is looking to stamp out coming off the line picking off blokes. But. If the contact was head high and they needed to scrape the bloke off the turf then sure. Weeks. But this was chest contact with low impact. No front end loader required. The appeal will get him off.
