Peter Burgoyne, Port Adelaide, has been charged with a Level Two kneeing offence against Aaron Davey, Melbourne, during the second quarter of the Round Three match between Port Adelaide and Melbourne, played at AAMI Stadium on Sunday April 12, 2009.
In summary, his carry-over points from within the last 12 months means that his two-game sanction cannot be reduced, even with an early plea.
Won't be playing us.The pieces keep falling into place!
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)
Bloody good news, wrapped for Kosi and Dal. Steven King is very stiff but at least he'll be playing against the Giant.
Apologies for jumping at shadows in previous threads re Kosi but more than happy to jump at shadows especially when the MRP turns the light on and there's nothing there.

in your defense and mine
MRP did not clear the action
but deemed the force below that required to ban............
Stoked with the decisions, all were spot on. About time the MRP stopped dishing out soft decisions.
Not too fussed about Peter Burgoyne, I mean sure he gets a heap of uncontested ball but does nothing with it. In the same league as Priddis and Carrazzo.

He is 5 times the player of those 2 and does very well against us. Glad he is gone.

those two are not even close to burgoyne
the guy is skilled, fast and can break lines, has killed us in the past....
prsonally I feel this will be the best chance we will have to beat the power over there. They are imploding internally, the coach doesn't want the captain, the captain is getting suspended.....
FQF
loyal in the good times and bad
In richo I trust
2013 trade/draft best ever?
Billings - future brownlow medallist Longer - future best ruck
Dunstan - future captain Eli - future cult hero
Acres - future norm smith

"Mummy he pinched me"
If this is the incident they showed on The Fifth Quarter on Saturday night then I'm not sure how you would classify it as a pinch. Johnson had his fingers in O'Brien's mouth, trying to stretch his cheek back.

His good record gets him below 100. So he can't get suspended one week even if he doesn't go for the early guilty plea. The early guilty plea reduces even further to 70.
I'd say contest the King incident regardless. Nothing in it, and he should wlk without ANY extra pts. Kosi was VERY lucky. As were we. YOU BEAUTY!!! McPharlin got off too. Burgoyne not so lucky...yet.
I was surprised that Dal and Kerr's charges got dropped. Can't wreck a Brownlow contender's chances so early in the year - nice call MRP!
Happy that Kerr got fined though - dirty b*stard. He should have been pinged for that charge on Joey, but then Kosi might have too - I'll take the trade.
Don't know if King will win contesting the charge - it certainly was reckless. He only cops another 25 points though, so what the heck...
Steven King, St Kilda, has been charged with a Level Two striking offence against Ashley Hansen, West Coast, during the fourth quarter of the Round Three match between St Kilda and West Coast, played at Docklands on Saturday April 11, 2009.
In summary, his five-year good record means he can accept a reprimand and 70.31 points towards his future record.
The incident was assessed as reckless conduct (two points), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points). This is a total of five activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level Two offence, drawing 125 demerit points and a one-match sanction. He has an existing five-year good record, which reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to a reprimand and 93.75 points towards his future record. An early plea reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to a reprimand and 70.31 points towards his future record.
ALL CLEARED UP
if he wanted to he could take it to the tribunal and it would still only be a reprimand.
