I don't think players testimony should be considered in that situation. Otherwise it's too easy to write a scathing email and send it off to sink a player that you've got beef with.
And that was a huge reason behind why we didn't take it further. One look at him and you'd think he was a bikie or something. There is no way a tribunal would've ruled in his favour vs a sweet innocent 21 year old Adelaide Lutheran boy.Zartan wrote:morell wrote:Oh its tough.

Without getting myself in trouble or causing an uproar here. The only advice that i can give any person or any club is get someone to record/video tape your games. Its the same with Dash Cams. If you have physical and hard evidence/proof of innocence or guilt. There's no point. The league do the best with the information and evidence at hand. However, unless you are there to admit guilt it's by far a very much a one sided affair. No disrespect to the league and the panel on the tribunal at all. That's just the hard truth of it. I also believe, that if a report is not made by any officials officiating the game, a testimony form a player r someone form the opposing club is adequate. Unless your an old collegian and or QC.

Unfortunately for Hulky he is such a strong dude that he gets caught in these situations where with anyone else it would be a nothing incident, but with him its magnified. He coat-hangered a West Croyden dude, completely accidentally, just got side stepped but because of the size differential it was an instant yellow card. He got another yellow for what was just a great bump, but it looked awful because of his size. We even saw it a lot in terms of free kicks where a ruckman would be all over him, he pushes back a little and they end up in the trees. Whistle and free kick against.
He's like a real life version of the Big Friendly Giant.
Having said all that, just don't call him a steroid user. He nearly popped a Fitzroy guys head like the Mountain vs Oberyn Martell for saying that.
