"I actually find it difficult to understand how the tribunal has come to this decision"
"If I'm Zak Butters I'd be taking this all the way."
The panel reacts to the tribunal's decision on the Port Adelaide star.

@shanemcinnes @TonyShaw22 This is less about the afl not having a reason and more about lawyers taking the required time to document the summation whilst ensuring the legal elements are accurately captured and explained...even more so considering the attention this matter has garnered.
English
@TonyShaw22 They never gave their reasons though. Shawry. They said “guilty. $1500. We’ll tell you why tomorrow”.
Farcical.
English
He’s disappointed with the result, and to make it worse, is given no reason as to why the verdict is what it is.
Not good enough.

Butters statement 👇🏻@7AFL @7NewsAdelaide
English
@TonyShaw22 @shanemcinnes If the umpire is adamant and the afl dont back him then what is the knock on effect on all umpires? If Foot quits after 15 years because the afl didnt back him then the afl has a greater umpiring issue.
English
@shanemcinnes Reason is tribunal believed ump and didn’t like little shift in Butters recollections Shane. Can’t see anything changing if Port appeal. Tell Zac you believe him. Zac can always state his innocence and Port save $10k.
English
@FOXFOOTY @LaurenHeraldSun Aflpa off the top ropes is ridiculous and inflammatory.
English
THEY HAVE TO... DON'T THEY ⁉️
Port Adelaide are "angry and bemused". Zak Butters is "completely filthy".
So, surely the Power appeal?
Plus, the "astronomical" cost on the AFL, as revealed by @LaurenHeraldSun on #MidweekTackle 💰

@bradeningram And what about the AFLUA??
How happy are they about how their umpire has been treated??
English
I understand the AFL players association is incensed by the Zak Butters decision. Its chief James Gallagher has already spoken with the Port star who is understandably livid.
A decision on whether the Power appeal will wait until the club receives the tribunal’s findings tomorrow.

"I don't see why a Tribunal could not have determined that 'we don't think anyone's lying, we just think there was a mishearing'."
🗣️ Caroline Wilson on the fallout from Zak Butters' Tribunal hearing

"Port Adelaide are furious. The AFL are contemptuous of both Zak Butters and of the Port Adelaide Football Club. They continue to say Zak Butters has changed his version of events too many times to be a credible witness." 🗣️ Caroline Wilson on the fallout from Zak Butters' Tribunal hearing
English
@RalphyHeraldSun @FOXFOOTY So to be seen as balanced should the AFLUA also weigh in??
English
Time for the AFLPA to go into battle for their players with a very strong public stance, which new AFLPA boss James Gallagher is up for. Port is shattered by the ruling but also bemused by little things like having to wait until tomorrow for the explanation for the ruling which means it has to wait to decide upon an appeal

'INCANDESCENT WITH RAGE' 😡 TOTAL fury has erupted over Zak Butters' $1,500 fine for alleged umpire abuse. In fact, one third-party is tipped to "come off the top rope" in the superstar's defence. MORE FROM #AFL360 + #MidweekTackle >> bit.ly/3O1DY27
English
@DavidZita1 @FOXFOOTY Its a smart move..reduces the possible fallout on relevant parties.
English
@FOXFOOTY If Butters is found guilty, the AFL is seeking a $1500 fine.
English
'100% ADAMANT THOSE WERE THE WORDS'
Umpire Nick Foot received a grilling from Port Adelaide's lawyer who suggested he was "not prepared to admit he might be wrong" and "needed to justify the 50-metre penalty".

@cleary_mitch @7NewsMelbourne @7NewsAdelaide @7AFL This is more about suppressing the potential fallout as most rational people will see it as low enough to stop attacks on the afl and umpire and enough that it still sends a message....
English
Zak Butters is currently before the AFL Tribunal.
Both the AFL and Port Adelaide are comfortable with a $1500 fine should the charge be upheld
@7NewsMelbourne @7NewsAdelaide @7AFL
English
@RalphyHeraldSun Jon, what process does the AFL follow when assessing 3rd party roles?
Considering its link with betting agencies what does the afl do to ensure no inappropriate behaviour takes place.
Has Foot ever been reprimanded in his 15 years of umpiring?
English
How the crazy day played out yesterday 👇 The AFL scoffs at any talk that Foot shouldn’t be allowed to have a second job in racing which includes the Sportsbet link. Butters certainly wasn’t aware of it. But there are some in AFL House who say the optics aren’t great especially because of the reaction we have seen over the past 24 hours. He isn’t a shrinking violet. He would have had plenty of byplay over 270 games with AFL players. So clearly believes he heard it & believes it attacked his integrity. What a challenging tribunal coming up

"Those two versions of the event are so diametrically opposed." 🤔 @RalphyHeraldSun with the latest on Zak Butters' controversial tribunal case with umpire Nick Foot... and the 'elephant in the room' 👇 #AFLTonight.

‘Got to take less to keep a good team together ...’
#OntheCouch, Hall of Fame Legend Leigh Matthews made a big call on the two clubs thought to be leading the race for Zak Butters’ services.

@LaurenHeraldSun The hypocrisy within the media is alarming. The industry is littered with betting agreements, sponsorships and endorsements however an umpire is the only person whose integrity is challenged.
The AFLs only interest in optics is if it involves a specsavers sponsorship.
English
People howled us down for writing this story last year. Whether the AFL has an issue with the optics of an official working at a betting agency is up to them. But at the very least doing so opens it up to alleged comments being taken in a range of ways. heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/gamb…

What is Cooper Trembath's value from a contract perspective? Only eight games into his career, but it's skyrocketing with every passing week. Kangas understandably trying to lock away a deal as quickly as possible. Reaction Time ⏰👇🏼 @AFLcomau

@DavidZita1 @FOXFOOTY If other codes ie NRL and NFL are any indication he will be a lot lighter in the pocket...also fair to say its only surpassed by coming into contact....the nrl are particularly tough on it.
Lets see how the afl handles it.
English
Zak Butters has been referred directly to the AFL Tribunal after being charged with Abusive and Insulting Language Towards an Umpire.
It is alleged Butters said to Umpire Nick Foot, “How much are they paying you?” @FOXFOOTY

@CoreyMcKernan What its done is highlighted a genuine gap in our list.
We need a capable 2nd ruck almost as much as that KPD we have all wanted for years. Goad still has a way to go.
X playing heavy minutes leaves him susceptible to fatigue and injury.
English
💯 he mucked up and he owned it…. He loves playing all four quarters of every game. Maybe we find out more on who steps up?
Nick Brown@NickBrownie_2
Hearing a lot of “X owes us this,” “X owes us that.” What a load of rubbish. He made a stupid mistake that he’s missing three weeks for. The bloke has busted his ass for the past 2 1/2 years, week in/week out, in the grimmest of times, whilst being our best player in that space.

@SENBreakfast What a pity Accor stadium in Sydney is no longer fit for purpose. Assuming the same fans that travelled to Adelaide are willing to travel to Sydney can only imagine what the homebush precinct would be like with games there and at Engie.
