heard some fo the results from the tribunal - very strange indeed

Bloke who gets king hit and kicked in the head - 10 games plus 20 games suspended
Bloke who throws the first punch (king hit) - 6 games

WTF

That is a joke. King hit and had 6-7 blokes kicking the crap out of him.

What was Marty thinking ?

I have been to the tribunal to represent players a few times and have found the process reasonable, fair and generally the right outcome comes out of it.
All parties are given a fair opportunity to state their case and more recently the there has been no pre-determined verdict given.
Firstly, if a player has been reported he is given an option to take a penalty that the PDCA has given if they wish to avoid attending the tribunal. If you feel that you have been "hard done by", you can contest this verdict through the tribunal.
When attending the tribunal you should prepare yourself with copies of statements from at least 3 different witnesses who your club delegate should interview seperately, you should then determine if you think the player was "in the wrong" or not, you should then give an accurate summary of the version of events whether it will work in the player's favour or not.
Generally the truth is weeded out in a PDCA tribunal, the last thing they want to do is hand out suspensions.
We have heard bits and pieces from one side of the story, I'm not questioning EM's integrity or accuracy on the events but he wasn't there and surely there was sufficient support from both clubs to get to the bottom of it.
Yes, it seems bizarre that the "victim" got more games than the "attacker", but how did they prepare themselves for the tribunal and how did the stories match up?

after he got king hit not sure there was much going through his mind except survival

To be honest though not much normal goes through his mind at the best of times

[Lightning McQueen]

obviously I am a tad closer to the situation than most
but no matter what nobody deserves that on a cricket pitch
all i can say to the hero who threw the punch and his mates who sank the boot in, is that they are extremely lucky no serious injury happened

Too right mate, I just can't fathom this happening in a cricket game. I can't work out how the game continued, it would be good to get a Playford version of events, I tried, they declined to comment.

I was being sarcastic...

If that amount of blokes are kicking the crap out of me, I too would swing the bat to try and save myself.....and expect that using my bat for that purpose will not be held against me at a friggin PDCA tribunal.

Funny about that.

I didn't get put in the book. But to be honest, do you think its good practice for an umpire to go to an opponents ground after a game and complain about players? Seriously... get a life Don.

All i am doing is passing information on to the people who were complaining about umpires no less than a couple of weeks ago!

Not all my posts have to be a joke now Catchit.

Umpires are humans mate, they talk about work. Don rocked up and just said to me and Russell that his game finished early and you guys didn't take the loss too well.
He then said "I had to get the warning book out because of the crap going on"
I said "Who was it? OKC"
He said "Yeah, how did you guess?"
He didn't go into any great details, he just said that he threatened to get the book out and you told him he may aswell put your name in it, so he did.

Seems like self defense is not an option.

I am perplexed at the outcome mate. There must've been some other contributing factors.

He was in my vicinity for the majority of the time he was there.
