$13,000 for Butters to pay. WTF???? Rough conduct rubbish again. AFLPA should do something about this.

Umpire farce - Getting worse by the minute!

Well she's female n we all know some of the boys at HQ are up for a bit of office romance with the junior staffers on the side. Perhaps in pursuit of total workplace equality, Laura gets to chase around a junior staffer pr twp as well.
Haaarrrgh. Looks like FerZachary needs to learn to just concentrate on playing footy n keep his hands to himself. Expensive bit of tupperware tuff guy happening.
Fun part is that players get taxed on their gross earning before the fine gets taken out and the fines aren't a tax deductible so he cops around a $3000 tax slug on wages that he doesn't even get. Heh.Heh.Heh.
It's a lot. A bloke like Butters who is probably earning $800k + can afford it but imagine of you are a 19 year old, or a journeyman type player with a family.
Keep playing the VFL side and kids...and hoover up the first round picks!
Honestly I think I'd rather a 1 game suspension unless I was in line for the Brownlow.
Or worse still, imagine if that journeyman was Marlion Pickett.
Yeah, Lohmann i think. He was about 5mtrs over the mark, but clearly we couldnt risk touching him otherwise he would have got a 50, that probably would have been 70 and given him a shot from 30 out.
It's his third offence, therefore as a recidivist, he should get no discounts. He's clearly not learning from past indiscretions. With form like that he should get rubbed out.
Agree. Too high just for 'rough conduct'.
I know it's 3rd offence but what the hell is 'rough conduct' with these pansy flogs?? It's way too high for a 3rd offence.
This is the price that should apply to bumps in the heads.
That, unfortunately, won’t stop the umpires from screwing us over at every opportunity.
I can't define 'rough conduct' under the AFL's interpretation, no-one can.
In this case the charge perhaps should have been gross stupidity, as he has form for it.
If Marlion Pickett had done this, he wouldn't play again in 2024.
I am. Got bored and wanted to how the asylum is behaving with one of the lunatics absent.
All back to normal now.
Hopefully Willos doesn’t mind me saying this, but the old fella is laid up at the moment in hospital, recovering from some significant and delicate surgery. Yes, he has had wang reduction surgery.
Anyway, seriously, hope you recover quick and well Willos.

Struggling to believe it's possible to have too much wang. More than likely Willo's been suffering from lock jaw after an overdose of big noting.
