I really hope it is the AFLās continued bias against us that eventually brings down the AFL executive.

Itās getting funnier looking at the deep hole the AFL keeps digging itself. It really shows on a micro scale how the saga got so out of control with the geniuses at AFL house running the process.

AFLPA should think carefully which battles they want to fight. Their client got his ā ā ā ā saved for not farking up and costing the match for his side and he mouthed off to an umpire. He/they would want this is go away instead of adding more fuel to what is a massive joke and fark up.

Or they have a bias against EFCā¦which is the most likely answer IMOā¦they hate us !
Thanks Sheeds & Hirdy 
Nah, he can always say āBut Essendonā and he will always get off whatever the Awful farkwits had planned,
Whether the post shook or not wouldnāt make a difference. Myers kick at best would have not carried higher than the padded part which is too low to shake. He was simply trying to climb the post to be capable of touching the ball if it carried through 9 or 10 feet high. That was his intention 100% and it should have been a 50 metre penalty for that reason alone. And that would have allowed Myers to kick it out on the full from 20 metres out.

Rampe ought to have told the aflpa not to comment aboute suspended fine. Itās probably the tempting for the AFL to just come out and release a 5pm Friday press statement saying theyāve reversed the result and hope something else controversial happens in the Friday night game so no one will notice what they did. They could even manufacture something by paying Eddie to say something terribly racist.
Sadly theyāll resist that temptation, because itās Essendon.

Look, Rampe didnāt mean any malice against the post. We know that because he told us so in an exclusive TV tell-all interview with nobody. You need to factor this in when you are writing up your rants.

I agree, it would have been much worse if he had intended to harm the post.

Media are saying itās a free, players are saying itās a free, supporters are saying itās a free - and the AFL donāt know what to do!
They canāt reverse the score of the game as they canāt assume Myers would kick the goal (from the goal line so itās pretty much a given but they still canāt assume that).
The best way to handle it is just to admit the mistake.

I bet Gil is just surprised that anyone cares that Essendon were screwed over. Normally its not an issue.

Just a bribge (or rampe) too far, perhaps.
AFL should take some learnings.

Gil & the AFL continually trying to sweep issues under the rug
Honesty and transparency needed
The umpire farked up. They made a mistake which cost a team a game of football. Criticism was warranted and they shouldnāt be immune.
Instead we get some excuse given contrary to the rules that just makes him & the AFL look pathetic and then a circus around the penalising of Rampe after the fact
