I'm fine with him missing our next game, would be silly to risk him not being available for the filth game. Doesn't mean i'm ok with the 2 weeks grading but the risk of appealing it is just too great IMO.

It was a silly challenge, but how has that been rated as Medium when the bump against Chapman in the Anzac Day match (can't remember who it was) was rated as Low Impact? Chapman stayed on the ground for 1 minute before getting up, then had to come off the ground... Thats a joke

Accept the week and move on,a stupid,selfish act!

Dawes wants to be a leader?

Dawes is a leader. Do you follow the football?

It was a very stupid thing for Dawes to do and a week is better than getting 2 that's for sure.

I am sure Dawes will be filthy on himself and that will work to our advantage in that (hopefully) he will come out fired up big time against the pies to make up for the mistake he made.

It will work in our favour and against the pies

Talking footy just said he is elite in score assists this year and well above average in all other areas, especially compared to cloke

Wayne Carey just saidbhe would take Dawes over Cloke in a heartbeat.

while Dawes did a silly thing done in the heat of the moment seconds after the ball left the players boot. The severity of the penalty (2 weeks) is rubbish. just the tribunal trying to get back at MFC for Jack Viney getting off and making them look like the bunch of dills that they are. I have great difficulty understand some of their charges, decisions and punishments look at murphy and other bumps/head high hits that have followed. These guys on the tribunal are lost at sea and dont know what to punish or not punish anymore.

Dawes did a bad bad thing

Rance got up!!

They all just ripped it to shreds on AFL360. Saying it was a ridiculous decision to get a ban at all. Roosy gave nothing away RE: an appeal. We shall see at 11am tomorrow.

it really is a nothingness. I used to get that kind of hello from many a FB in my younger days. Was all part of the fun and games. This game is getting Nannylike. Any little thing gets a MRP gig...ffs. The players of yore must get a giggle

Agree, and the door was definitely left open regards appealing.

All questioned the medium impact, arguing it was low at most.

Robbo felt it was a free kick and that was all which they all agreed on.

Id kinda like us to appeal...All part of the new MFC...

How is it part if a football game to smash a person in the face with your fist? Only thugs like Brereton think that was ok.

It was just a silly thing to do.. plain and simple. Whether the intentions were there or not, it was reckless.

Cop the week and unleash him against the Pies

You do realise he was actually going the BALL.?? He mistimed it as often happens. Its part of the game...like the rounder arm block etc.

grow some eh

Garbage

Grow some manners

I wouldn't say that. Over enthusiastic and clumsy perhaps yes. But not selfish. Just trying to do the hard man stuff and working over their big man defenders.

No Bomba Thomson, Paul Roos, Gerard Whateley and Mark Robinson all thought this was a ridiculous penalty, medium impact is a crazy rating especially when compared to numerous other incidents all rated low impact. Only a moron would think he smashed someone in the face with his fists. If he did smash him in the face with his fists that the player would have continued unencumbered?
