This is without doubt one of the worst penalties we have seen for a minor matter. 

Appeared to be a push to the shoulder, which slipped up to the neck. Nothing in it. 

Feel sorry for the bloke.

Much worse of course, an open palm push to the upper body, than a boot to the face which was high, medium impact and reckless but only gets a fine for a 3 time offender? Yes it is all making sense to me.

The outcome in the end was ridiculous I agree but with bad record not giving him the option to reduce to 1 why in the hell would you contest it?

Terrible advice

Terrible advice 

But its a shocking decision.

The AFL is very slowly killing a game that use to be the best in the world. The MRP have literally no integrity and has become a shambles.

If it wasnt for my love for the Dees I think i would stick to only watching local footy.

Not even worth a 3 dollar fine. Should've slapped every one of the tribunal members on the way out.

There is no common sense anymore, how Redpath ends up with 3 and Wines gets zilch is absolutely mind boggling.

So frustrating for supporters,  the games custodians need to take a good hard look at themselves, surely something has to change,next season with the farcical structure of the MRP.

What crap! MRP proving they are from outer space. Bad week for Doggies fans, with Redpath copping far more than what is fair and Greene getting off (not to mention Wines) ...

Posted (edited)

Where can I find a vision of it?

I couldn't find it in the game highlights. I do have access to the replay. Does anyone know when it occurred in the game?

EDIT: Just seen it in the Monday wrap, not to worry.

Feel for the Doggies, but we've had our share of BS MRP results this year too and there was very little media outrage.

2 weeks was overs but he had a loading for a bad record, so it makes sense from that perspective.

We need the Dogs to lose at least 1 more match so I'm not unhappy with this outcome.

Yeah it's a rubbish decision.

The MRP is a joke. The Wines incident was bar far worse, along with several of the gut punches (to the floating ribs or liver region) I've seen this year that have passed.

Is it just me or has everybody that has shown physical aggression towards Phil Davis been suspended this year? 

Have heard the guy is a massive wuck fit of the highest order. Surely that would be the main argument put forward at the tribunal in a players' defence?

The grading system and the MRP should be scratched. It was supposed to make penalties more transparent and yet it's even more laughable than the old tribunal. How Wines walked is a mystery all its own. But Redpath's three weeks, like Hogan's two weeks earlier this year, are hopelessly out of line.

As bad as it is, they should just go back to tribunal hearings and every one of those f---wits on the MRP forced to walk a lap of the G on Grand Final Day while they're pelted with rotten fruit.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
