Oh and I agree with plugger66 ... no overt bias against St Kilda.

But I don't share his approach that "if he is innocent, the Tribunal will clear him. If he is found guilty, he must have done it".

You gotta be more questioning than that plugger mate.

Bakers charge is a joke I agree there is no video evidence. The AFL cannot based their charge on what a Fremantle Officisal said. They should charge Baker if there was an UNBIAS person who witnessed the incident. But your club will fight the charge. All witnesses are biased. The tribunal has to cal...

They don't put their name forward independently to the tribunal - they are a witness for Fremantle, so Fremantle calls them. I don't know at what stage parties have to notify the tribunal as to the names of witnesses, but I'd suggest that if the tribunal has been given a name, it is not in public do...

What makes you think they haven't put their name forward?

What is Bakes alleged to have done? If the Freo Official claims he saw Bakes strike/punch Farmer then the charge would be 'striking' and not 'rough conduct'. So what is alleged? PRECISELY Mr Magic! I'd say he saw exactly the same thing as M Voss: Baker and Farmer running towards a contest - then lo...

I hope this is the case, but if you can be found guilty of attempting to strike you can be found guilty of have someone run up you ar$e Yes, but attempting to strike is an offence as set out in Law 19.3.3(i) of the Laws of Australian Football. Rough conduct is also an offence, as set out in Law 19....

Exactly what could Baker be cited with?

As far as I know there's nothing in the laws of the game that makes it an offence to be cannoned into by someone else.

So...I take it you all agree with my theory, then? . . . sounds like the most feasable theory that I have heard so far . . . considering all that has been said by GT, RL and V1. Correct me if I'm wrong but did bigcarl and myself not mention this on Saturday night in this thread? : http://www.saints...

First of all, I'm not your "mate". First of all, I was being sarcastic. Secondly, its not my problem if you don't understand a simple (albiet, rather poor taste) play on words, regardless of something as trivial as spelling. Oh I understood it. I was just pointing out that in pointing out...

You don't mean "verruca", by any chance?

Mate, cheap puns only work if you spell 'em right.

Farmer's not a stray.

I spotted him on a lead with Baker quite a few times yesterday.

Yeah it does come back to the dollar. The love of the dollar also drives the somewhat hypocritical approach of condemning rough play or reportable offences, yet allowing broadcasters to repeat footage of it ad infinitum. Outlawing rough play / fights = a more family-friendly image = product viabilit...

Have just had a look at the Dockerland forums at what they have had to say about the incident. The funniest thing is that one of them is under the misapprehension that Baker is facing charges along with Voss over the Prince of Wales brawl. Quote: "the thing that strikes me is that Voss might be...
