Adelaide Footy League Division 4 - 2018

[bloods08]

We have a few out unfortunately. Not that we will be using that as an excuse if we go down. Should be a beauty.

[The Big Shrek]

the player from Eastern Park has been playing on the edge with things like this for the last 2-3 years this is just the first time he has been caught....E.P are not on the front foot because I see 2-3 other players on the list who at anytime could get reported and get games as they have short tempers

Everyone has a short temper when it comes to you because you are a twit.

[Brodlach]

Should be a great challenge for our boys brod. The gepps cross team looks extremely strong tomorrow

Tough tight contest.


Good to go out to Gepps Cross too, good club

Solid work from EPFC jumping on the front foot.

Eastern Park Football Club kicks out Michael Friel after alleged headbutt and will lose premiership points if league bans him

A NORTHERN suburbs football club has booted out a player who has been reported for headbutting.

Eastern Park deregistered Michael Friel on Tuesday night – three days after he received a red card for allegedly headbutting a Kilburn opponent during their division four match at Blair Athol Reserve.

Friel was set to front the Adelaide Footy League’s tribunal two nights ago but the hearing was postponed until Wednesday, pending an investigation into a second incident involving him from the same match.

Eastern Park is on notice with the league for previous incidents of bad behaviour and faces the loss of one premiership point for every week any of its players are suspended.

Demons football director Craig Wilson said Friel was told to leave because he broke rules the club imposed in 2014.

“We made it very clear since we signed the agreement with the league that there would be zero tolerance towards this kind of behaviour,” Wilson said.
“Because he received a red card, he has been deregistered from playing and asked to leave the football club, regardless of what the tribunal decides.”
Friel has been contacted for comment through the club.

League chief executive John Kernahan declined to comment before the tribunal hearing. Kilburn also would not comment.

If Friel is suspended, the Demons will be the second club this month to lose premiership points.

Last week the league stripped division six team West Croydon of three points after Hawks player Joseph Bull received a three-week ban for umpire abuse

Parks must have a hard nose.

Absolutely clueless comment to be honest.. he hasn’t played for the last 2 seasons, this was his first one back so who knows where you get your shocking information from.. Enlighten me on who the other players are that could get reported at any time? The club has done an awesome job cleaning that stuff up, was unfortunate what happened Saturday and as you can see the footy club has taken full responsibility for it, now they are trying to clean it all up!

Played 5 games in 2016 by the looks, so only 1 season off.

[#bleedredandblue]

If you call that a season of football well then yeah only one off.. but he only filled in at times back then, may have done the same in 2015

i played at pooraka i know the guy when he played for us and i played against him when he went to E.P i know first hand how he plays and how he pushes the limits with knees into the back on the ground with late tackles etc. Even few years back was doing head butts call me clueless that is fine but i expect to see at least 1 or 2 more get reported before season end past history short tempters.....

[The Bedge]

Dude you cant just go around kicking blokes out because historically back in the day they've had a short temper or what not..

[Robb_Stark]

If you on sanctions you leave out the question mark players E.P have 2 more hot heads near life bans why risk playing them and risk going down to doc 5

[#bleedredandblue]

Once again, I’d love to know who these 2 more hot heads are seeing as you know the footy club and all the players in it so well?

[Brodlach]

CLG over Gepps by about 5 goals in a tough bruising game of footy. Well done to both teams

[The Big Shrek]

Big Shred is sad missed a shot to win the game I retire Shrek out

CLG were far too good today. Scoreboard probably flattered us. CLG should’ve probably won by 10-15 goals in the end. Hopefully we can get a few back for our trip to Edwardstown next week.

I’d suggest it’s blokes he’d never say it to there face.

If they’re as hot headed as he implies, definitely wouldn’t say it to their face

[Danky$$]

was left dumb founded that an umpire in the smosh v kilburn game said there was no such rule in the saafl as taking the ball out of the ruck and getting tackled is holding the ball.

[Minion Master]

Sounds like the club is hanging the bloke out to dry before the tribunal hearing.

It seems unlikely, but what if the tribunal wanted to find him not guilty? Bit hard to do so now after the club has basically publicly stated he did the wrong thing.
No chance for him to get a fair hearing now.

In this case the club is bigger than the individual, they have obviously said stuff him, the future of the club is in jeopardy.

I don't blame them

Didn't they have a player red carded late last year & points deducted and have the rule in place red card/suspension player will be delisted, what happened in this instance, is this player still there?
