...but has no case to answer for Simon Black (maybe his apology was enough), and a wagging finger for going in front on contact on... was it Mitch Clark? I forget.

The angry Tasmanian with a head like a plank of quality Launceston hard oak timber is free to charge at Adam "whinger" Goodes on the weekend.

Great news for the Blues yet again.

Saw footage of the one he got the points for, reckon he should appeal, got him on the shoulder. Don't want to be carrying 93 points.

He should wear a helmet.

If he does can we start a thread titled "Is Mitch Robinson the best player to wear a helmet since Rod Ashman?"

I agree. I reckon he missed. I reckon he got points under the Stevie Baker/Campbell Brown syndrome (not suggesting he's a sniper like those guys are). But once you get a reputation for being reckless, then you're far more likely to get punished. I bet if Dane Swan or Simon Black made that contact, no one would have thought twice.

And if More-frees or Jimmy Hird had made that contact, then the other player would have been suspended.

Robbo gets punished for being tougher, and not lying on the ground afterwards.

Who could ever forget Dunstall's monstrosity of a helmet?

Is Judd the Messiah, or Kreuzer?

The beauty of Robbo is that he's a genuinely tough SOB, and an absolute warrior when it comes to getting the football, but he's not dirty in any way. Sure, he might get overzealous (as he did against Brisbane), but he's a far cry from other so-called 'tough' players (Campbell Brown, Steve Baker, Riemers) who in reality are anything but.

Robbo wants the ball, if an opponent is in the way he's going to run through them to try to get the ball, there's no malice, he just wants the ball.
