Was a joke he even got a reprimand, I guess you can't sheppard people, in play, connecting with a guys shoulder any more, thank God Grimes (the man made out of glass) didn't shatter on the spot or Bo Bo would be facing time

+1 - It's sad.

stupid question but what's a reprimand?

A warning, basically.

Translation: they get off scott-free.
thanks.

As an Eagles supporter, I hope he does too. We play GWS this week so we hardly need Waters, and if he challenges and loses he has less points on his record for the next time he fronts (and you know there will be a next time...).

Physicality always look less harsh coming from a purple jumper...

Can accept a reprimand, woooooo

dmagnus

MRP probably let Pav's slide to make up for the old eye gouge that Juddy pulled on Pav. Now its even they'll say.

unceramonius

How was Pavs even reportable?  If thats a report, then teams wouldnt be able to field 22 players a game with the outs.

We all know Beau would get off, he plays for the Eagles.

LOL ;D ;D ;D Very Funny Stuff

I think he should challenge it too. It's bad enough the afl have taken the shirtfront out of our great game, do they have to take the bump too. A very sad day. When will the afl start to listen to the supporters and even the commentators.

unceramonius

The commentators are just as corrupt though.  If the rules are there, which are crap, then they need to apply for everyone and not just the afl favourites.

So Beau gets a reprimand....cool.....same thing happens when another player does it then. 

auscoyote

Tony shaw thinks it's a good part of our game. Might here a bit about it on league teams, not that the AFL will take any notice.

Keep trying, unceramonius. In the meantime, the crowd has spoken - as has the MRP for that matter. Waters not a week for a good solid hit, but Ballantyne 2 weeks for a behind the play cheap shot. Maybe this MRP isn't so bad after all...
