I’m with WYL. He knew the damage he could inflict and he didn’t care. Rest of the season.

Wow. You really don’t get it do you. 

Delayed problems are common. I know this through personal experience

SWYL, I played and coached senior football for many years, I've had the injuries, I get it. What I don't get and think it's stupid, is you wanting to remember a players career over one incident. He most certainly is a star, that plays aggressively, would've loved to have had him last Friday night

Totally irrelevant on the quality and character of a player or past incidents. This could have serious implications for Andrews. I won’t give a second thought about Cameron when he retires.

I'm not debating he shouldn't get weeks, I hope he gets his fair serve, however remembering a players whole career because of it? Forgive and move on, in time.

Both these guys will be going through pretty traumatic times at the moment, and some people would be able to personally relate and

have unhappy feelings to both situations, just saying..........

I think you stand alone on this one mate. 

As a baby i had a tiny bleed on the brain and have never been able to walk. 

Think yourself lucky. I hope Harris Andrews makes a full recovery, but if he doesn’t i will know exactly why. 

Jeremy Cameron is forever a thug

In time. Through acts of contrition and changed behaviour. He deserves what he is getting right now - that was horrendous and with an intent to hurt Andrews. But instead of a knee in his kidneys he chose an elbow to his head and put his future in danger. 

The last thing I care about is Cameron’s repu-effing-tation.

Poor Cameron he must be completely traumatised by that decision he made to launch a flying elbow in Andrew’s head, has anyone stopped to think about his elbow? I’ll bet he pleads not guilty.

This got Lockett 8 weeks in 1994:

Surely with tougher penalties now, Cameron will be out for similar.

Access all areas on afl website are talking 4-5 which seems way low for my mind.

I will be impressed when he gets 10 weeks and doesn’t fight it at the tribunal.

Indeed way low!

8 weeks given to Plugger for breaking Caven’s nose and these guys are talking 4-5 weeks for Cameron after what he did? 

Please don’t call it a dog act. Dogs don’t do those sorts of things.

It was a thug cheap shot.

Caustic, but there things we do that we regret.......

I think 8 to 10 weeks suspension is a fair penalty given precedents for similar  vicious elbows. Then we can all move on, but........The ongoing concern is will this have future ramifications for Harris Andrews?  Could take years to find out.

i have to say cameron's actions were reckless and dangerous but i don't think he intentionally elbowed andrews

lockett's elbow however was intentional and blatant and he was fully balanced with other options

ergo, cameron to get less than lockett on this basis (not that they will take a precedent from this era anyways)

Karma blessed Peter Caven after this. The following season Lockett was traded to the Swans. Caven was not too happy to be playing with Lockett and asked for a trade. He went to Adelaide and played in two premierships whilst Lockett never got one.

Charge was graded as intentional, with severe impact and high contact.   

Straight to tribunal.

He will be lucky to get only 6-7 weeks, the medical report will be damning..  It should be 10 or more but the sickos at AFL House will cut a few weeks off as he plays for GWS and they have to protect their plastic franchise.

God I hope GWS folds just to stick it to the AFL.

Amazing how much hate there is for the AFL.

It's like Sepp Blatter or that [gnashing teeth] Verbruggen (although plenty were prolly ok with him)

Sorry, I meant Dill. Geez First Dog on the Moon could do a ripper tear down of him, racking my brown for his animal character. What's a super dopey animal.

At the tribunal hearing. Umpire Pannell says he gave a free to Cameron for being pushed in the back by a Brisbane  player Darcy Gardiner before reversing it for the hit on Andrews. Alluding that Cameron was pushed into the collision perhaps? Looks like forces are working to go lightly on Cameron.
