What a ■■■■■■■ joke!
And I cracked the sads hearing about it, turned the TV off and consequently only heard about 9/11 the next morning.
Fyfe cops 1 game.
Rance fined $1k for diving

about time fyfe got suspended, been getting away with fines for years
Both the correct outcomes.
You really think a Grand fine is going to be a Diving deterrent?
Until it starts costing Weeks, … it will not change at all.

If this means Martin wins the Brownlow i’m going to throw up.
I doubt it, his numbers and influence is down on last year.*
*unless his output goes up dramatically which it can do
But do the umpires realise that?
I think it was like that the year Judd won his 2nd Brownlow…
Judd was the one shinning light in a crap team and so all the votes went his way. That can happen. But he was still a pretty decent player that year so it was hardly not justified.
Others have been standing out more this year at Richmond and i think that will move votes away from Martin.
Irish copped a week earlier in the year.
That’s the Essendon rule though.

Rance deserves all the scorn and humiliation he is getting for being a diver.
But, I think there is a difference between being a diver to exaggerate a free kick and exaggerating (faking) a hit, punch or an elbow.

Aren’t these decisions/offers meant to be made within 24 hours? Or have they given up on that?
I loved hearing media this morning label him a flopper and serial offender. I wish our club would call him out on it aswell

Lol. We’re more likely to apologise for McKernan’s little finger making contact with him.

Yes he does, but I truly hope the umpire who paid it is hanging his head in shame for allowing himself to be sucked in that easily. Dumbass.
