Butters won his appeal.
What a debacle all round

Won it only on a blunder of the Tribunal by letting Johnson hear evidence whilst driving from what i just read

Either way he has $1500.00 he can donate to his better half again

A blunder is a nice way to put it. Like come on the guy was hearing evidence whilst he was driving on his way to a open inspection.

Bloody hell, the AFL is signing off on some strange stuff at the moment.

They didn't need to address the other issues raised, so we don't know whether they would have overturned the findings regarding what Butters said to the ump.

Interesting that they quashed the Tribunal's decision given the other two panel members presumably were not affected by driving.

The AFL argued before the Appeal hearing that Johnson's antics did not have a material impact on the case, so I don't agree that the outcome yesterday can be chalked up to the AFL as you suggest, although I do agree that it was the most convenient outcome for the AFL.

Perfect outcome for the team at HQ.

Of course the AFL would say that, apparently they changed the timing of the hearing twice, and he was trying to reschedule work commitments to suit.

I'm on a local tribunal
You say no if you cant be there
He may have been called late to the job so he should just have recused himself
What a (typical) $hit show

[Brodlach]

What happened was it was scheduled for 1:30, JJ said yes. It then late got changed to 3:30.

He probably then should’ve pulled out but it may have been too late. Then he should have got someone else to show the house (real estate agent)
