Is the silence from St Kilda considered bad sportsmanship in light of the evidence?.. I say Yes?

Question

Is the silence from St Kilda considered bad sportsmanship in light of the evidence?.. I say Yes?

Answer 1

No way.

Grant Thomas' reaction immediately after the game, when interviewed for the telly, was one of someone who had got away with something he was not really entitled to have, and he kept his smile concise, and his comments brief.  He knew.

Not convinced that the league handled the fall out correctly, or even appropriately; but that's not the question here.

Go tigers

Answer 2

yes, When the siren goes its ment to be over. GO SAINTS

Answer 3

yeah, that sucks ***! well i think that the coach went in the locker rooms and said if you heard it, shut up.

b******s!

It better be turned around....

GO FREO...

(LATER)

YAY FREO WON... what a jump that was for saints 6th to 9th.

freo just upped from 7th to 6th.

COME ON DOCKERS!!!

Answer 4

St Kilda were ripped off.  The UMPIRE ends the game. Not the siren.  The umpires have been undermined in this instance and it sets a VERY bad precedent.  If my team loses by six goals next week, then following the same logic as this decision, my team could appeal decisions by the umpire that they think led to their losing, and have the game overturned.

Answer 5

Unlike the Dockers, the Saints accepted the umpires decision and they have now accepted the tribunal decision. What more are they supposed to do? Don't believe every rumour you hear about what is said in dressing rooms.

Answer 6

Well, if the same thing happened to Fremantle, their coach might of done the same thing s the St. Kilda coach.

Answer 7

I think so

Answer 8

Yes, Rules are rules . the siren signifies end of game. Go the dockers

Answer 9

No, Im not a saints or docker fan (carn the Eagles!) the result of the inquiry has nothing to do with the saints, of course we now know the decision, but it was up to the AFL to make the decision. The Saints had nothing to answer for
