A bit stupid by Jack. Got to be bigger than that. Love his passion, but needs to add some smarts, he's going to be targeted every week, has to get used to it. All part of the learning experience. Go Dees. Trengove in.

Yep, just needs to channel it more effectively. Trengove in could be a good call, could play a similar role.

Two weeks down to one with an early plea. 

Dont suppose it'd be worth the challenge.

Zero grounds for a challenge. Pretty obvious that it's low impact, intentional contact to the head. 

Only thing you could argue that it wasn't strong enough contact to warrant a report. Individually 1 punch/strike maybe, but 3-4 kind of bring it up to low impact.

Deemed intentional, low impact so 2 weeks is a bit stiff!

Probably not worth the challenge...he needs a rest anyway - took a heavy knock a few weeks ago (vs brisbane (?) went off and didn't come back on) and has carried a heavy load so far this year. 

I feel sorry for the Pies players in two weeks time.

Could have been worse. i think he's been carrying some niggles

yep agreed. He's not the type to accept he needs time off for  injury I don't thnk , so it may be a blessing in disguise. Gawd help us against the hawks though. 

What a great show of leadership. 

Pity we cant afford to send him to the vfl after his weeks suspension. 

Just game himself a bunch of games where he is targeted. 

Yeah but still a massive loss this weekend especially coming up against the hawks. Dam it. Wonder if other clubs now know how to put him off his game by niggling him and getting his focus off the ball. 

But people over the weekend kept saying he should get off. 

But not a great thing for a leader to do especially with the team we are playing this week. Jordan Lewis got cleared for his headbutt by the way. 

But I think Jack will be disappointed he got sucked in and got a week.

Just totally undisciplined

Give him a week to think about it, every team in the comp knows he has a short fuse and if he doesn't learn to deal with players winding him up he will miss a few weeks to come.

 

Saw this pic on club website of Ollie taunting his off-field best mate.  If I can put words in Jack's mouth he would be saying:  'yep, you'll keep mate!

What was disappointing for me was the lack of support from his team-mates when he was obviously labouring under a heavy tag.  Jones and/or Vince could've done more in my view, along the same lines that Viney himself has flown the flag for team mates several times this year.  I think Clarrie will be superb in this arena in due course and hopefully Gus.  Doesn't seem to be Tyson's thing, not Vandenberg for that matter.

One punch:   free kick 

Two punches:  5,000$ fine 

Three punches:  Jeez Jack ...I'm gonna have to give you a week!

Enjoy the rest young fella

Come back and give it to the Pies.

Bit of a joke of a suspension.

How can they be deemed as punches? Ebert ran out of his way to elbow Viney in the back to start it anyway. MRP are fools. What about the 3 facial contacts with Demon players. They were clumsy & all very deliberate. [censored] Port look forward to the return match.

Saw the Gawn and Garland ones.  Which was the 3rd?

Suspension irrelevant for Viney ... Can confirm has hand injury, needs surgery, out 3-4 weeks .. @7NewsMelbourne

It's going to be very interesting to see if anyone is willing to fly the flag in his absence.

We may very well go 0-4 in our next 4 games. Who in our team is willing to stand up over the next month?

Well doesn't that [censored] throw spanner through the works.

Really [censored] off now. I swear our young talent can never take a trick at this club.

Christian Petracca.

That is just WOW!

Trengove is the obvious replacement.
