What a load of crap!
If anyone had a case to answer, it was monty when he ran into an umpire.
Liz is correct when she recalls the goodes incident.
I remember being livid at the time, as I was watching goodes closely.
He was behind the umpire, but not in his ?back out? path. As goodes ran in to the contest, his opponent purposely pushed him into the umpires path, which resulted in a St.Kilda free kick.
Just ridiculous that after reviewing the footage they think he has a case to answer.

There was a separate incident during a ball-up near the camera-side wing where the umpire recalled the bounce. My attention had wandered a bit by that stage of the game but the commentators said something about the recall being due to someone standing in the umpire's space and suggested it might have been Goodes.
Contact looked trivial compared to Buchanan blindly cannoning into Chamberlain but I guess they have become very specific about giving the umpires room to back out at stoppages. Surprised that nothing has come of the Buchanan one, though - even just a comment that the MRP considered it accidental.Leave a comment:

Pay the fine Goodesy.
Geez, he really had a shocker didn't he?
I'm surprised Blind Barry wasn't up ... didn't he nearly rip someone's head off?Leave a comment:
