norwood carnival turmoil!

hmm controversy!!! in the game between u20's woodville div2's and norwood div2's a massive rumble broke out in which two players were kicked out of the match. even more interestingly is that two div1 Norwood players who were watching the game came and threw punches, one being Scott Lampshire! he and the other Norwood player (I'm not sure of his name) are facing huge suspensions, I've heard everything between 8 weeks and a year. I am not too knowledgeble on the subject so hopefully someone in the know will post here soon. Lampshire and the other player were present in the final though, in which Woodville won 61-51

Nah it was Dave Pascoe from Woodville. It went on all game up until the 3rd quarter where I think the Norwood bloke got called for a foul, Pascoe pushed him and it broke out. I reckon there was about 15 people oncourt either puching or pushing, or trying to break it up. Pascoe and the Norwood bloke got disqualifying fouls, and the Norwood div 1 bloke, who was a spectator, got asked to leave too. That's only my recount from another court, so feel free to correct it if needed.
For all it matters, Woodville went on to win in overtime. And I've heard the div 1 bloke could be sustpended for up to 2 years, not just one, as outlined above. But I doubt anything will come of it because Norwood didn't have a tribunal in place for the carni.

i was in the middle of the hole thing.

Wat happen was there had been niggle all game, which erupted when pascoe and the norwood bloke clashed while dave had the ball in the mid court. he then got into the post where the norwood player apparently hit dave in the face. He then turned and with the ball and let it rip at the norwood player. The norwood bloke then took off after pascoe along with the rest of the norwood team, and the woodville players there for came in aswell. No cheezeburger didnt have anything to do with the start of the fight but was there at the end. anyway. from wat i saw, there was really only pushing and shoving, no punches thrown.

Now. Pascoe has been let off with a warning. the norwood div 2 i think has to go to a basa thing or something like that, but should get off, but also could get a couple. Lampshire i beleive is facing closer to a year and the other bloke 6 to 8 months. this is from dave's mouth who was the only one of the 4 apparently who showed up today.

the div 1's in the end just made this worse (i no once i saw them, thats where i was heading ) and they deserve wat they get! it was great to see after it was over the rest of the players that were on the court, all shook hands so there was no hard feelings and so the game could have the exciting conclusion that it had!

If u run onto the court from the crowd and if this not punished then in the heat of the moment you could have some serious situations. Imagine if 6 or 7 had ran onto the court. Then you get people that arent even involved like older brothers or parents. You are asking for trouble if you just let ppl in the crowd run onto the court and get into fights.

He ran on the court and was pushing people, which everyone was doing, a year is a bit rough since no one was hurt or punched. But him being a div1 he was naturally the biggest guy there and was a stand out person in the fight.

A bad move from a good player. Lampshire's on court attitude cannot be doubted...but he over reacted in a big way and should pay the price.

We were playing on the next court and as tempting as it looked to jump in, I quickly realised that the players/umpires needed to sort it out...not spectators.

As a spector at the game, scott lampsire ran onto the court grabbed/restrained 1 woodville player and pulled his best friend away to the bench (a player for norwood div2's)! NO punches or any crap like that. He had a loud verbal squaral with a woodville offical. He has been reported and it has been passed on to basa. He will get 2-3weeks scrub MAX. NO year No 2 years (whoever posted that crap has no idea!)
Hope that clears a bit up.

You really don't know with basa tribunerals, anything could happen from max weeks/months given out to nothing at all. Although running onto the court will mean he'll most probably get a few weeks as for getting done for actually throwing a punch, well there seems to be mixed stories of what happened, so it all depends on exactly what is said in the tribuneral.

Hope he gets the minimum that should be handed down if at all.

you already prempt a tribunal finding on weeks penalty given.

for an infringement that does not happen often and would have to be held in high disregard.

if he had been a player on the bench who came onto the court to break up a fight he would have been automatically disqualified from the game.

that type of penalty even though they are often attempting to stop a fight is to stop players and managers from further inflaming a position.

regardless of his intention IMO his action is incomprehensible and indefensible.

next time 'little johnny' in u10s is bumped mum or dad can run on court and drag the other kid away

next time brett maher is toe to toe nose to nose with someone a spectator or two can come on court and sort the mess out.

or in the AFL spectators could have streamed on to the gabba and stopped brisbane from hitting nick reiwoldt.

regardless of level of game, u10, u18 abl and regardless of whether it be finals or a norwood tournament. it shouldn't happen

The woodville guy that came off the bench #32 got off with nothing as the umpire didnt see him. He ran on first and when scott saw him going in to attack he went to jump in. I still havent had anyone come forward with the bruises that this black belt would have caused if he had punched anyone. This post just shows how most of you have your opinions, make up shit and then everyone else joins in. I also gather that the people who said he punched someone would be woddville players. Without being at the game you have no right to comment as you didnt see what happened. The 2 players will be punished accordingly.

So you're saying a parent made the report not the umpires? My understanding is that only officials may make reports, this includes referee's and scorers (as they are part of the officiating 'team').

For those people here that know Terry, you would defiently say that he certainly wouldn't make stuff up for the benefit of the team,club or his son. If he has made a report saying that a norwood player took a swing, then I would have no reason to doubt him.

If it's someone's dad of course people will doubt what is said. How can you say just because it's this one person it's a reliable source but say if a norwood dad also made a report saying there were no swings, is that source also reliable. A spectator is a spectator no matter who they are.

Maybe so, but from running on the court to break it up and running on the court to throw a punch both deserve a few weeks break, but one is much more severe than the other. Seems like the story of what exactly happened has to be sorted out by the officials.

Also, who was reffing it? Victorian refs or SA refs? If victorian refs how will the tribuneral occur? Will the UIC just appear who it sounds like above was Andrew Filmer or will they get the ref's story via phone call? If they were SA refs then it'll be much easier.

I was present at this infamous game and saw the whole thing. Following the melee senior umpire Alan Fisk advised the bench he was submitting reports on Dave and No. 13 from Norwood and 2 spectators being Div 1 Norwood players who had been standing behind the bench. Additional information was supplied by Terry who was standing adjacent to the area of the fight. While the behaviour of the participants of the melee was reprehensible, the addition of spectators was a dangerous escalation. As I understand it, this will be handled in-house as the carnival was not a BASA sanctioned event. As a long standing Woodville supporter I would just like to say that while spectator involvement must be discouraged at all costs, Lampshire's attitude and behaviour on and off court is greatly admired by the Woodville players and we hope that commonsense prevails.

wit the coin toss for the woodville sturt game as it was the start of the tournament the umpires were not aware that overtime was to b played so the game ended a draw.....one of the norwood senior officials did the coin toss and woodville won it. however if sturt kept winning they were able to challenge the decision however they lost every game after that so it wasnt an issue, woodville wud have made the semis regardless so it wasnt an issue in the end

Lommax - directly from Scotty:

"No punches were thrown, I came on the court and grabbed Benny (I'm guessing Matthews?) and took him back to the bench. There was at no stage any altercations with any Woodville players, I was not ejected. I did have a conversation with a Woodville supporter on the way out of the stadium (ie after the game?) - the dad that reported me."

And the other info comes from Chris Donaldson's brother.

I'd suggest whoever posted the crap about throwing punches etc should watch what they say next time, because people have a) lost their basketball jobs, and b) been severely reprimanded before over their comments on the forum. Read the terms and conditions, because one day you'll get sued.

read the rule book, talk to any senior referee, scoretable official, official of any type.

for another player to come on to court during an alteraction they are ejected from the game regardless if they are there to help or not.

for a spectator to come on to court i'm sorry it defies logic

seriously talk to the young man and tell him the error of his judgement.

because when it is all done and dusted whether he/she/they/them are over reacted all telling porkies.

he may be very very lucky that it wasn't a basa sactioned event. despite what ever intention he had simply he shouldn't have been there.

I believe Libertine's story is 'straight from the horse's mouth' as they say. Straight from the person who all this involves.

I don't believe Libertine is just 'a friend' of Scott's more someone who has a connection with Norwood in someway. Not exactly sure who he is but my understanding is the man is quite high up in the Norwood Committee and not just a Norwood Random? Am I correct in saying this?

One person has stated the right thing about this subject. I was at the game and saw what happened. In my view libertine has a point about what happened but the fact of the matter is he as a spectator should not have been on court. If BASA dont take this report seriously than any parent/spectator can run on court at any point in a game. I'm not saying what the suspension should be but it has to make a statement to people watching the games.

JUST what part do you not understand that at no circumstance in ANY sport should it be condoned for a spectator to walk on court to even attempt to help.


on court there are a referee and an umpire. and ten players if a fight breaks out between two players or a scuffle and someone runs from the other end of the court to grab another player it can explode out of all proportion.

if someone is having a push and shove and someone approaches them from behind without warning they can mistakenly think it is someone going to hit them or cause them grief. if that is a coach or manager or someone off the bench it can often inflame an already bad situation.

why do you think that fiba has in place a rule that disqualifies any player / manager etc who comes in off the bench and enters the playing arena.

i remember an aust v russia friendly at cph where catalini got into a fight and vlahov went to his aid. longley came in off the bench and summarily got disqualified.

scorebench personnel are in those circumstances able to be aware of who has entered the playing arena and notify the referee if asked.

in cricket alderman was injured tackling a spectator who ran onto the field.

why do you think that there are hefty fines in cricket / afl / rugby / tennis to stop spectators from coming on to the playing arena.

monica seles was stabbed by a spectator.

the point here is regardless of his intention; regardless whether you think the player was better off the court. this person, this spectator, regardless of whether he is a player of another team, whether he was a parent, or someone of the street. the seriousness of someone entering the playing arena is at issue.

forget the 'was there punches thrown' forget the 'parent/coach/manager reported him' forget all the other maybe could have possibles. Libertine has stated that this player in his own words entered the court - there in lies the whole crux of the matter.

IMO as it was a norwood carnival and the that it was not a basa event like juniors or state champs or abl it doesn't come under the basa auspices.

not all competitons overlap remember robert rose being reported by geoff weeks when he was playing for forestville years ago. he got 2 games suspension from forestville but his suspension did not carry over to the nbl.

it is possible that norwood will have to censure the young man themselves.

perhaps it should serve as a warning to all young players on here the responsiblity of their actions - whether they believe they are helping or not

but saying all of that what has been done has been done.

let us end the discussion let the powers to be handle it and move on.

Spectators/subs who come on the court in a fight would get a longer ban because they had no reason at all to be there.

I wasn't there, didn't see the situation - but Scott - I warned you about this very thing on Friday night at Pasadena after you were watching the Norwood 2 team play.

But always, it takes two to tango. So to whomever else was involved take a chill pill. Let it stop here - don't be childish and take it out on the court the next time you play.

No probs.

I never said what I thought what they did was right. It was stupid, very stupid, they should accept and be gracious in whatever punishment they get. No spectator should ever enter a playing arena - what's the fine for cricket, $5k?

But what I didn't like was alot of things being said by people, with no response. X punching X etc. Probably the same person posting with 4 different names. (Mod: Doesn't appear to be.)

If the woodville guy provoked Scott (i wasnt there) then he should be dealt with exactly the same as Scotty - if..IF they get dealt with....and the coin toss with woddville and Sturt (u18 1's) was exreemly bad - why wasnt overtime played?

Selfe,

"If the woodville guy provoked Scott (i wasnt there) then he should be dealt with exactly the same as Scotty"

Sorry but this is crap. Whoever 'provoked' Scott (if anyone) should not be blamed for Scott's actions. Most sportspeople have an ambition to phsyche out the opposition, so they can gain the upper hand. This (if he was provoked) is just another example of this.

i can understand that to phsyche your opponent is fiar enough - but i was going on the information that Scott was watching...not playing

Yeah ok my bad, player mixups. I don't know the Norwood blokes by their first names. It is a general comment though.

In that case though how could Scott have been provoked if he was a spectator?

the way the bylaws are written state that if you leave the bench (spectator/player/coach)then you are ejected, depending on what you do your reported (yes pushing is reportable max penalty for pushing with 2 hands open palm is 6 months) as for being 'let off' because he is having a crack @ ABL? what then? he will push and start fights there too??? if this is happenning now i doubt they will want that in their ABL team.

triking with a closed fist is 1 year. max, but this can also be server as a suspended sentence.

I think we are all a bit over it. Let things run their course and we will await what happens. He has a clean record and had not ever been reported for fighting. Let BASA do their thing until then stop speculating and making more outta a situation that has smeared what was a good carnival for all. Why dont we all put in our time on a positive topic.
