Competition Committee is basically the old Laws of the Game Committee and all the other AFL advisory committees rolled into one. Eddie's on the Committee, but i doubt he has the time to do much on it. Basically it's a scapegoat for Gill and the others, they can just say it's the CC's responsibility or decision, even though it's obvious they're the ones who are responsible and making the decisions.

Anyway, it's a week for a b.s. report, and it's only round 3, not the finals or a do-or-die match. I'd still like Cox to get off, but if not... we'll find a way to beat WC.
Richmond couldn't get a free because they wouldn't go and get the ball.

Yep, and not just now. It'd be hanging over their heads. (Think Barnes, Platten, ... and their action against the AFL.)

Has Cox fronted the tribunal before? I wonder what the American is thinking about the whole process. Probably "WTF?!"

Cox is 'testifying':

... "braced for contact with Grimes" ... who was "coming at him with force"...

... rejects the notion that he took steps directly towards Grimes...

Previously,

'Essentially, Cox is pleading not guilty to two of the three gradings from the MRO - the intentional conduct grading and the low impact grading. They will not argue against the grading of high contact.'

Cox represented by Robert O'Neill; AFL by Jeff Gleeson QC.
AFL Tribunal: Ross Howie (chairman), Wayne Henwood, Jason Johnson and Richard Loveridge.
{How many of those four are legal professionals?)
