TRIBUNAL
Charges Laid:
Des Headland (FRE), striking Eagle Adam Selwood: intentional conduct (three points), low impact (one point), and high contact (two points), equaling six points, a Level Three Offense, 225 demerits,and a two game suspension. He has a record of four matches suspended within the last three years, increasing the penalty 40% to 315 demerits, plus 31.25 demerits held over from within the past year, further increasing the penalty to 346.25 demerits and a three game suspension. An early plea would reduce this 25% to 259.69 demerits and a two game suspension.
Headland was charged with a second offense of striking Selwood. This was assessed the same as the first striking offense. As such, the two penalties are combined, leaving Headland with a total of 519.38 demerits and a five game suspension.
Headland was also charged with wrestling Selwood, incurring a $1200 fine for a first offense. He accepted, reducing the fine 25% to $900.
Adam Selwood (WCE), was charged following an investigation by AFL Investigations Officer Bill Kneebone with using insulting language towards Docker Des Headland. The case was referred to the Tribunal which does not allow Selwood to enter an early plea for a reduced penalty.
Fremantle lodged a formal complaint claiming that Selwood made lewd comments regarding a tattoo of Headland's six year old daughter. The Dockers challenged some of Headland's charges based on a defense of extreme provocation.
After a marathon two-hour session, both Adam Selwood and Des Headland were cleared of all charges. Selwood flew to Melbourne to defend himself while Headland testified via the telephone link which had been arranged.
The two players gave differing accounts of the verbal exchange. Selwood said the initial stomach-punch, which Headland described as a "rib-tickler" was unprovoked. In his testimony from Perth, Headland also told Selwood that he had gone too far with the verbal sledging, saying "Kids aren't involved. Kids is crossing the line, mate."
Selwood stuck to his defense that he did not know who the tattoo depicted and said he only referred to the tattoo once and never said what Headland claims he did.
Tribunal chairman John Hassett directed the panel to take into account Selwood's character - his charity work in Perth and the fact he had never been reported in either his junior or senior career. That combined with the conflicting testimony was enough to dismiss the charge. In Headland's case, the charges were dropped with the panel stating that Headland's actions were due to "extreme provocation".
Both Selwood and Headland are deeply distressed by the events and hope they can sit down in mediation. Selwood is considering legal action against the media who were premature in reporting the on-field incidents, saying his reputation has been damaged and smeared.
The Eagles believe the case should have been referred to the AFL's mediation process rather than going to the Tribunal and have called on the league to include personal verbal abuse under the anti-vilification rules. Those rules, initiated in 1993, currently cover racial and religious vilification.
Fraser Gehrig (STK), striking Bulldog Brian Harris: intentional conduct (three points), low impact (one point), and body contact (one point), equaling five points, a Level Two Offense, 125 demerits, and a one game suspension. He has an existing record of three matches suspended within the last three years, increasing the penalty 30% to 162.50 demerits. He accepted, reducing the penalty 25% to 121.88 demerits and a one game suspension.
Danny Jacobs (HAW), making negligent contact with umpire Dean Margetts: it is his first offense, incurring a fine of $3200. Had he accepted, the fine would have been reduced 25% to $2400.
However, Jacobs challenged the charge, claiming he had not bumped into Margetts. When told of the report, Margetts said there had been a mistake. Margetts also told the Tribunal the only contact he felt came from Kangaroo Daniel Wells, who later apologized for knocking Margetts down.
Tribunal counsel Andrew Tinney said video footage showed that contact from Jacobs had pushed Margetts into Wells' path. Jacobs denied making contact with Margetts, the Tribunal panel agreed, and dismissed the charge.
Josh Carr (FRE), has been charged following an investigation by AFL Investigations Officer Bill Kneebone with striking Eagle Daniel Chick: intentional contact (three points), medium impact (two points), and body contact (one point), equaling six points, a Level Three Offense, 225 demerits, and a two game suspension. He has an existing poor record of three matches suspended within the last three years, increasing the penalty 30% to 292.50 demerits, plus 25 demerits held over from within the last 12 months, further increasing the penalty to 317.50 demerits and a three game suspension. An early plea would have reduced the penalty by 25% to 238.13 demerits and a two game suspension.
Carr challenged the charge, claiming he was nowhere near Chick at the time of the incident. Chick testified via telephone link to Perth that he had turned to face the ball, then felt a forceful blow to the ribs. He further stated that it had left him sore from hip to ribs. However, the Eagles failed to provide sufficient evidence that Carr was the one who struck Chick
Carr and his player advocate Grant Donaldson also identified discrepancies in Chick’s evidence regarding the injury sustained, his presence on the field in the first quarter and when the incident occurred. According to Tribunal counsel Will Houghton, it was a matter of whom the panel believed. The panel dismissed the charge.
