    The downgrade seems a popular, "guilty... but..." approach, although I can't remember it ever being successful as that basically suggests the grading committee don't know what they're doing (which they might not tbf)

    Wondered if he might but didn't think he'd want to miss game 1 to start next season and these two games obviously mean nothing.

    Hard to see him being successful.

    Would give a bad look even to downgrade it when others have faced suspension. Especially with Waddell's getting hit with a grade 2. Really not sure why he'd even try and fight it.

    Not sure if a Kangeroos game can be counted towards Murray's if he's unsuccessful?

    Exactly. Would suggest they got the grading wrong if they did downgrade. Like I said, not sure what defence he is going to go in with. 3rd man in, Shoulder to the head and knocked Friz out cold.

    No trades and my remaining salary changes every week. Now at $502k, gone up over $100k in the last two weeks. Did I invest in Bitcoin or something?

    Maybe the "I'm Cameron Murray" defence (almost worked on the field)

    If that fails, then the; "look into my eyes" defence

    When you look at the grading process he basically has to argue that both the force and risk of injury were low. Considering Frizell was a Cat 1 HIA I can't see how he can possibly successfully argue that.

    On a related note, i wasn't selected to be on a Jury today for Jury duty. Don't know if I'm happy or sad.

    I did jury duty in 2019 and was on an 8 week murder case. The judge liked to turn up around 10am and fucked off at 2 or 3 with an hour lunch break. I got paid my public servant salary and had SO MUCH time to manage my fantasy football team.

    The absolute dream

    It went 8 weeks hey, big interruption for some. Is Ur employer obligated to pay for the duration or their is a limit ?
    So many people got out of the selection process today, on the spot seemed so easy. Ridiculous really.

    @Revraiser your employer has to pay you for 100% of the time. It's a legal requirement.

    I got veto'd when I was younger and thought that was it, I didn't realise I had to go back the next day.

    Missing the top 4 is a very real possibility for the Panthers, can't see any restings.

    Ive had the jury duty letter twice and cbf'd it both times.

    If i got one now Id definitely do it. Although id probably miss it because i check the letterbox maybe once every three months. Unless text you now..

    Yeh I looked into everything as it came up for me this time, but thought I'd read something about a Max time limit for payment. Today was all clear, won't be asked for atleast another 12 months, and could be years before coming up again.
