I thought that the longer it went on, the more likely it would go in our favour.

Wonderful news!! On one hand, I feel that justice has been served and I want to stick it up the haters, on the other hand he will be seen as a protected species by the haters now, probably for the rest of his career.

Can't wait to see him lead the team onto the field these last two weeks.

Appeals Board reason summation:

Failure to afford procedural fairness amounts to error of law. Because we're unable to identify the evidentiary basis of the finding, 'the actions of Cripps were in the bumping of an opponent', we conclude findings of the jury were unreasonable.

AFL have now reviewed their umpiring appointments this weekend and Nathan Williamson is now doing our game.

Richard Loveridge on the panel. Fair football player and now prominent lawyer who evidently knows and applies his stuff.

I truly hope that this is somehow the catalyst that turns it all around. The pessimist in me says don't be ridiculous. The optimist in me says this is the seed of hope the whole club needed. Anything is possible, isn't it? Come on blue boys

By the way, Jeff Gleeson, chairman of the tribunal who applied the law wrongly, allowing the argument which got Cripps off, is a Queens Counsel.

Wouldn't be paying the $5000 plus a day or what ever it is for his advice. :smile:
