Lynch threw half a dozen haymakers and most of them would have struggled to land inside the MCG. A St Kilda bloke called Jim O'Dea in the 70s put a Collingwood bloke in a coma for three weeks. Both got the same whack.

Yes, it's rather ironic that Brown will get 6 weeks in a game he shouldn't have been playing in. Karma and all that.

The Tribunal ends the season as its starts - WITH NO F******* CONSISTENCY AND TOTALLY CRAP DECISIONS.
If they want to send me a fine for bringing the game into disrepute they can find me...... total tossers!

As for brown, well their little trick at the tribunal meant he played against geelong and got injured, had he been suspended for 1 he would have been fit for the grand final, the grub got his just deserts, hope he get at least 8 more.

And if the reporting officers are being hard because it's GF time then why was Wakelin not reported for kneeing Simon Black in the head when he was on the ground! Gives me the S****

As for acker, he's better of playing for the lions and causing all the internal disharmony. Has there been a player so hated by his own?
And if you report wakelin, i counted 10 times those scott bros could have been reported with there forearm pushes to the face, pity they couldnt stop the 7 goals kicked on them bwhahahaha

May or may not have been an accident when you typed it Lucy, but when I next use it it won't be. That was a ripper, the typo of the year.

I hope they appeal.

Here comes the Western Elephant.
What was Burgoyne doing with his hand near Acker's mouth?
Does anyone remember Todd Viney? Thought not.
Chris Lewis got pinged for 5 weeks for biting that low life and the question was asked as to why Viney had his fingers clawing Lewis' face in order for Lewis to bite him. Valid question, I thought.
But the really funny conclusion to this snippet of history is that Viney was picked in Melbourne's Team of the Century and was obviously picked as a result of running up to the umpire with his finger held up and completely distraught. Terrific drama.
For every winner in the race of life, there are hundreds of losers. Obviously Viner was one of them.

Just call me Nostradamus. (Or 'Nostrils' for short.)
Last week we saw a nice juicy 72-font-headline 'get-tough' gesture towards a player that won't play anyway, and is therefore pretty bloody meaningless. Black gets three in the crossfire (hey, gotta be consistent), and this week Brown gets slapped again with a piece of wet spaghetti. By round 6 both will be back. Good to see Al won't be sitting on the couch getting fat in his retirement. He has been set a rigorous program of can-carrying. I'm amazed I'm onto this before chrisso.
