Cotchin did, for a worse hit that put Shiel out of a Preliminary Final.

That’s a great point .... I often wonder if that’s one of our players in the same predicament in the next couple of years whether we would be afforded the same level of leniency.... with a grand final on the line 

barry hall in 2005 , Aaron Hamill 1999 and Cotchin in2017

Take it to the appeals board, get some adjudicators without an agenda to deliberate whether it was suspension worthy.

An unjust outcome IMHO, but nevertheless, May shouldn't have put himself or the club in this position. Hope the club however kicks up a huge stink this year whenever similar incidents are swept under the carpet (and they will be).

If i wasn't a Dees supporter, i'd have no interest in the AFL. Outside of the MFC, i have no interest in it anymore.

Local footy is soooooooooooo much more enjoyable without all the bureaucracy (though that's now starting to seep in at the grassroots level too, thanks to the AFL's incompetence). Local clubs and leagues are struggling more than ever, but let's just paint over the cracks by wasting time and money in AFLX. FMD.

We should be happy as we now know the true definition of medium impact, which is “ it could have been worse”.

The tribunal is a joke. The MRP is a joke. Steven May doing something borderline suspendable in a praccy match is a joke. 

Clowns the lot of them.

Yeah because depending who you are and which club you play for you might get awarded a free kick and score a goal.

Gotta agree Jaded. May shouldn't have put himself in this situation in the first place. All it's done is remind us all how inept the current power-brokers are, which just leads to frustration.

Yeah it's bull[censored] but let's take a positive it puts May on notice now, no doubt this won't have gone down well with the coaches or club leaders. The decision like it or not is the right one in the AFL eyes. Better that May learns he's lesson now then during the year when it could potentially be a worse scenario

Why?

May did nothing wrong. After years of being called soft and bruise free, we now have hard hitters and snipers to enjoy. It's a contact sport. I would rather Melbourne play on or above the line than below it.

He clearly did do something wrong otherwise he wouldn't have been suspended. I don't agree with it but like I orginally said the AFL has in their eyes made the right call, we all can disagree with it but the end of the day May has got a week suspension... I personally would much prefer he doesn't do it & miss weeks than "play on or above the line" I think our contested style of footy speaks for itself, we don't need incidents like the weekend to be branded "tough"

Did you complete year 1? It’s “his” lesson not “he’s”.
