James Sicily – Shoulder - Test

“Yeah progressing really well. His strength measures have improved each session, each time we’ve tested them. We had him out there today doing all of our drills, so the plan of attack for Thursday is to fully train this Thursday and then we’ll make an assessment off the back of main training for his availability on the weekend”

They're deliberating on Heeney's tribunal now, I reckon he'll get off.

They're deliberating on Heeney's tribunal now, I reckon he'll get off.

From reading the blog on the AFL app I think they’ve made a good case for him to get off. Wait and see I guess.

Oh well that sucks, thought his good record would've saved him. Too harsh.

Appeal still to come I would think.

Well there you go. Not happy to see him suspended necessarily (including as an owner) … but it is good to see that he didn’t get off simply because he’s a Brownlow favourite.

I am a Heeney owner so am conflicted however they also play Nth this week so am also conflicted the other way (but probably less so).

It doesn’t seem right to me that a rule can be written that deems a certain action intentional and the true nature of the action becomes wholly irrelevant. I can understand this from MRO and grading perspective but surely the role of the tribunal is consider each case on its merits and form a judgment on intent. I can’t see how it is any worse than careless.

Oh well that sucks, thought his good record would've saved him. Too harsh.

He got lucky earlier in the season with an incident where he threw his hand back and hit someone’s face (not during a play at the ball). Wasn’t even looked at.

Only silver lining I see is that Warner should get more involved this week. Bad thing is Heeney’s replacement is Jack Macrae.
