Round 27 - Race for the Plate

2 match ban for Novillo

Silly silly boy

And Berisha has had his ban reduced, so is free to play against Brisbane

Dura's not at all happy about the Victory's defence of Berisha

What a bunch of disgraceful lies. Grabbed him by the throat?? Can I please get sent that footage? I won't have my name tarnished by lies.

So apparently there is a photo I hope they release it. Also Berisha apparently didn't kick Dura, he pushed him with his foot...

Wasn't Dura standing up when Berisha kicked him? At no point did I see Dura bend down to grab him by the throat...

Same old aussies, always cheating. Berisha is just a loud mouth thug that spends more time nagging referees and diving than actually playing football.

Cant see Durante kicking Berisha's hip or strangling him there?  Did the MRP look at the video or just take Berisha's word for it?

Yeah, I slowed it down to 0.25 speed and based on that video Dura's forearm would have to be at least twice its length to reach Berisha's neck. 

He could have killed him. Bes was clearly terrified. 

Since when, in any circumstance, is provacation a defence for retaliation on a football field. Apparently since yesterday

The problem with that comment is the Berisha is not a aussie but Dura is.

Since never. But it does get your two weeks dropped to one :) 

The FFA continue to be a joke at every level.

How dare you speak about our benevolent overlords in that fashion! 

Does the A of FFA stand for awful?

If so one of the f's has to stand for fudgeen
