@AFL@MatthewLloyd18 Lloyd can't imagine a scenario where the AFL bends the rules and ignores precedent to achieve a desired outcome?
He lacks imagination.
@FootyFGPod Is this supposed to be satire?
Literally the second answer he gave was a veiled swipe at the umpires.
I will grant you that asking coaches to front up like this after games can be pretty brutal and he handled himself well - mostly.
@TonyShaw22 Jesus... what a bonehead take.
So you're happy to give a green light to players in every footy comp around the country that punching someone off the ball is fine... as long as no-one can tell what kind of impact there was?
@thethirstyhawk #3... So it's a free kick, but because it could change the outcome of the game it shouldn't be paid.
Asinine.
I am enjoying your tears though.
And I love how you've tried to make your bitching look reasonable with the other points.
@AFL, if you want to protect your umpires from this kind of behaviour, you'd surely want to make the penalty something real rather than a slap on the wrist.
Hopeless.
$10,000 fine for Sicily and $5000 for Barrass. Sicily is probably lucky not to be referred straight to the tribunal. The umpire mikes didn't pick up what was a fairly expletive-laden and offensive exchange
@Andy_YoureAStar@MemesAFL I don't think security could know that Hawks fans could be so ignorant of the rules that they'd throw shit at the umpires.
This is not on the MCG or the staff; this is on the so-called fans.
