In BC, Canada where our daughter lives it's now 5:50am this morning, (Monday), so if Graeme Mew lives anywhere near her (West coast), we should have a decision by 10:00am his time (3:00am AEST Tuesday)!!
I'm betting he has a Nana-nap before delivering his verdict!!
I'm assuming he's running a video-conference "trial".

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but further illustrates the lunacy of this case.

Excellent write up from a neutral source. This whole process makes a mockery of the system. Essentially: 'There is an independent judicial process there to make unbiased decisions free from outside influence.'*
*except for when we disagree with them

If a decision is clearly biased or perverse, the orb have a duty to act, I just can't believe this guff about double jeopardy. The citing commissioner was either biased or on the grogg I am afraid, guilty as charged I'm afraid. Its like a judge believing he fell on the knife 12 timed backwards. 4 game bam for cowardly assault I think.

This is starting to get stupid late for Horwill, unfair on the fella in such an important week whatever the outcome.

Nah is all good. Robbie has implemented a 4 am policy after last week's burger run

Yeah, I think we got you the first time, Stephen Jones. Try reading a bit further. Most people have a problem with the process, rather than condoning the initial action. How about you move on from some pretty obvious trolling.

Is the Orb Sauron, or some other monocular creature? I have some experience in this area.

I don't think it's that clear cut. That's the whole point. It's not a clear intentional act of foul play. Unlike Farrells jumping on Lucas's head.

It's far more clear cut. You can actually see Horwill 's foot connect with his head for a start.
If Horwill hadn't done the same thing to two other players this year, I would probably be on his side but repeated acts like this simply should not go unpunished.

Neutral source possibly, but not a neutral article. Such disjointed logic and you'd think an organisation with close ties to the IRB would be able to find out why the IRB are actually appealing this decision rather than to put their name to some ridiculous conspiracy.
No wonder no one put their name to that article, iit looks like something straight out of Rassie's book.
Don't get me wrong I love SA referee's website, but they have a few rather strange authors from time to time.

Can u point me to the videos of the first 2 stomps? And no it's not clear cut. The guy can't see what he is "stomping" on.
