Daunting place to go Lidcombe Oval even as a spectator as the Magpie crowd would be revved up on Tooheys/KB etc even more so than the Magpie Players
Some players nowadays are lucky they were not playing back then one has to say even with the faults with the current system- loading % 's / how offences are graded/no mitigating circumstances and how one has to play 7 years offence free footy before being eligible for a discount instead of say a points accrual system for each game played without an offence that can be used to offset future offences i.e say 10 points a game perpetually accruable.
Carryovers are reduced by 5 points for each game played without an offence so a player without any carryovers or previous offences get nothing for it until they play 7 years of offence free footy to be eligible for a discount other than an early plea discount when charged.
