Houston with have a trouble.

Not with an Ex Collingwood player on the MRO

 

[SC_Power]

He got off the ground which will go against him.

Actually feet clearly on the ground on contact.
I think this photo is more damning than the one of him in mid-air.

 

[Waspy79]

Haaaa he legit only got 2 weeks. No wonder my hands can’t reach my pockets when it comes to this outrageously contrived, corrupt and biased league.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

Carlton fans showing us up after only five minutes of Voss.

Unless their chairman is Karl Stefanovic then they should get rid of him within good time.

 

[RossFC]

This league is so corrupt, what a joke.

 

[Duck Farmer]

The MRO formula for the maximum penalty awarded to players from Big Vic clubs is Games to Next Blockbuster - 1

 

[Portmagpies36]

Really does show just how patient and soft modern Port fans are. Least demanding fanbase in the AFL... outside of maybe Gold Coast.

and Gold Coast don’t have a fan base!

Actually Dan is stiff to get 2 and I expect Collingwood to challenge. The issue is the force of impact. I would assess it as Low but I would upgrade it to Medium for risk of greater injury.

The MRO went a degree more than I would have and graded it as High Impact. That’s pretty tough.

The Impact categories are

Low
Medium
High
Severe

To have this one degree below Severe is harsh.

They can do that now though, they've been given the freedom to this year as they're punishing the action

The MRO has for years been allowed to factor in ‘potential to cause serious injury’ when assigning gradings.

This act by Houston was intentional (as off the ball incidents must be graded according to the guidelines), high contact and at least medium impact. Over to the number crunches to apply the matrix to see where that one lands, but my suspicion is it’s a minimum 3 weeks and off to the tribunal.

This farce reminds me of the time Hodge got a two week ban for sandwiching Wingard head against a goal post. Funny that there were only two rounds to go before finals.

Anyone that believes the league does not orchestrate favourable outcomes for pet clubs and players is deluded.

I’m shocked, but not surprised.

 

[davesnothere]

Pickett in the mid working in the pack is that goal

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Getting two firsts from Melbourne for Dan would have been so good for us

SIZZLING FRIDAY NIGHT FOODY

Seeing Melb and WB win premierships striking whilst the irons hot. Meanwhile we've bottled our chances and taking the worst approach of expecting consistent finals appearances, we'll get there eventually is why our club is so mediocre.

This sport is shitful

One of my favourite things is a stereophonic test record with panning railway sounds.

Isn’t how many games he would get if he played for port -5 for Collingwood discount

Remember when Bailey Smith was a match winner? Now just racks up junk stats.
