Man Handle? That's the first I've heard of that. Ugly and should have been serious suspension if that's the case.

Magic doesn't condone the behaviour of those involved and their reprimands internally highlight's this. They acted swiftly and publicly. Well done to them for publicly condoning verbal abuse of officials. Which is more than what any other club has done, many clubs have been involved in incidents this season yet none have publicly condoned any of the behaviour of their members or supporters which were sanctioned for bringing the game into disrepute.

That being said, NNSWF are still looking for the NewFM supporter who threw the chair at the NNSWF delegations table. If you have any information could you please forward your statement to Crime-stoppers.

I am confused. You say Magic do not condone the behaviour...then go on to say in the next sentence they publicly condone verbal abuse...

Presumably meant condemn

I'm confused at the double standards northern operate under, a coach get 4 weeks for a little abuse at an official then hand out poultry fines to an offence that was in my opinion much much worse, I suppos I shouldn't expect to much more from northern

Whats the confusion, generally the punishment fits the crime. If a 4 week ban is imposed after all parties have represented themselves, then that's what it is, if a fine is imposed after all parties are heard then again, that's what it is, case closed. Can we now start discussing football, just heard Lambton will be announcing a big name signing in the next couple of days.

Hi Forever, I forgot to ask, did you witness what happened when the coach got 4 weeks and then what happened in the Magic clubhouse or is your opinion based on what he said she said.

Can't believe a man as smart as you thinks Northern are a competent organisation to have faith that they would get things right

The chickens from the coup were good layers back then, they would have had most of it covered.

I suppose the idea to give them suspended fines so the punishment from Northern will be less worked in their favour then.

You need a new obsession, I'm happy to sign an autograph for you but you'll need to move on then

Magic U18 and 20s playing trial tonight against Newcastle All stars indigenous select team who are heading to Nowra again in November.

Magic 18s 3 Indigenous 2
Magic 20s 3 Indigenous 1

Will be all the better for it, with a couple of players to come in as well.

Thanks again Magic
