On the way up - Yes
Improved - Yes
Comparable to the top 5-10 clubs in SAAFL - let's have a chat in a few years.
Ingle Farms record in recent years would stack up admirably I would think. A degree of credit and respect needs to go to Wayne Knowles for that as well, incidents the Farm has experienced in recent seasons has been dealt with swiftly and harshly by the club.
I would agree with X, Ingle Farm would in recent times indeed be among the better disciplined clubs. Show me stats that prove otherwise..
Sorry to pinpoint this kid Farmer folk, but WTF did he do to get 8 games?

All the big penalties appear to be coming from kids in the 18s this year - why are kids nowdays so bloody angry (in general)?
Just imagine them once the do-gooders abolish time out and the naughty corner!
Edit - This post not designed for all you others to start having cracks at the Farm.

I'd be thinking high testosterone levels accompanied by the league trying to set precedents to the young lads that it's not the way to conduct themselves on the football field.
In a perfect world we should find alternative measures to curb the enthusiasm of the young lads and find alternative ways to punish them, perhaps whacking an orange shirt on them for some junior games so they can see how difficult it can be for umpires when faced with hostile matches.
Just a thought.

Rather than a suspension, players could reduce their penalty by accepting an umpiring role for a certain number of games.

I don't know the full story exactly what happened, all i've heard is that a bit of a scuffle or "Melee" broke out in the U18's game against Salisbury towards the end of the match, several lads were involved, but from what i'm told the runner from Salisbury went into it, Cooper grabbed the runner by the scruff of the neck and launched him from the pack.
Cooper is a sized lad and very strong so not suprised the runner apparently went flying.
It's a real shame because the kid is a gun full forward.
My guess is the league is cracking down hard on these things especially in the 18's to perhaps stamp out any nonsense at a young age hence the severe penalty? Dont know.

Could be a solution.......but depending on how Junior the Games are I can't recall what you might describe as a hostile Junior match albeit you would only need a rudimentary knowledge of the rules, would you achieve the objective?
Alternatively if rehabilitation means by umpiring Junior Games at the under 16's & under 18's level would the offender do that before after an umpires course?
And as Junior games are played on Sundays would he still be permitted to play on the Saturday's given the punishment is in fact lieu of suspension?
It was a bit open-ended and straight off the cuff, I umpire anywhere from Under 6's to A Grade country footy as well as women's state league, I do notice that the 15 to 16 year old age bracket are the ones that look like they could turn hostile at the drop of the hat, being played on a Friday night or late on a Sunday there's a tendency to attract spectators that will indulge in a beer or two whilst watching which in turn attracts more banter.
I still think that some suspension stand but also they should look at other forms of punishment.

You can't get 3 red cards in one game, you'd be sent off for the rest of the game
Plus, you certainly wouldn't get off. There's an automatic suspension (1 or 2 games??) is that right?

I feel whilst in theory it has merit but believe time and his preference to get back on the paddock asap.....that this would be difficult to implement.
Unfortunately the example set by more senior players does often influence the youngsters on behaviour patterns...good and bad...... Education at the Junior level is where IMO the problem should be tackled.

I guess I was more looking at it from a point of view where the offender would be under the guidance of a mentor.
Maybe the player behaviours haven't changed over time, but our allowance of what is acceptable has. I remember playing Under 17's back in the early 90's and it was hard football and very hostile at times.
