What, an open handed tap to the chest that had no reaction!  . 

It wasn't even a push!!  What sort of medical report did they get?

No wonder the MRP didn't describe the 'incident' - there wasn't one!

I call BS!

the norf player who pushed him into the pack was more dangerous

ump wasn't even concerned

needs to appeal fine

He's already accepted the $1500 with an early plea. It would have been $2500.

If that was deemed misconduct then surely Jacobs needs to go for pushing him into the other players.

There was more chance of damage (very, very little) from that incident.

What..?

[sue 9,195]

When I first saw that video I genuinely thought they had put up the wrong video because I didn't see anything worthy of penalty.  On re-playing, I saw Oliver pushed in the back and thought he must have done something wrong after he got his free kick.  MRP on track for another outstanding year.   

Perhaps this will help Oliver control himself from whacking players during the season - because you never know when they will duck as you swing and you get suspended.

[P-man 13,366]

I don’t even know what to say about that.

If he got fined for that then, yeah, I’m speechless.

[Robot Devil 1,895]

I look forward to this interpretation being consistently and impartially applied throughout the year.

afl must have a revenue problem

[Willmoy1947 4,198]

Umpires obviously starting their rubbish decisions quite early this season. Clarry or anyone for that matter gets pushed through marking contests or packs of any kind should be watched by the powers/t/b closely. Most players relax at whistle and idiots pushing players into fences or packs can cause harm. Grow up Umpires and be on to it.........

And North put in a medical report. What bulltish. Comical behaviour by North and the AFL. Bloody hell.

[brendan 3,445]

What the hell was that? Going to be a very long year if the AFL Are pinging that they will end up rich, CONTEST CONTEST CONTEST

Not one for conspiracy theories but I would like to know more about this medical report.

Really is time for independent medico reports perhaps.

[buck_nekkid 6,068]

Perhaps it was a closed fist.  Christian sis say he was going to come down hard on any punching, including to the body.  Open hand, next time.  Weak as pizz, honestly.  Glad they posted it, coz I missed it entirely!

Yeah thats what i was thinking. MRP probably trying to send an early message. IF it was a closed fist, take the fine and learn from it.

If it was an open hand it couldnt have possibly been fine-worthy.

[deespicable me 1,550]

I think that's the softest tribunal decision ever.

Two decisions in and it's already a joke. Geez

[Lord Travis 10,793]

Softest decision I've ever seen. An open palm shove to the chest with low force after being pushed in the back? If that warrants a fine, then surely tackling your opponent now warrants a 3-4 weeks suspension?

[DubDee 26,306]

I expect 200 other fines from the  weekend then. WT actual F!

contact centre!

Surely this is the wrong video. That cannot possibly be the reason he got a fine.
