I agree with this.

Viney got slammed for the how long his arm was on Collins' throat.

 

Was that how long in slo-mo repeat, or how long in real time? (which I estimate as somewhere between 4 and 5 seconds)

You can clearly see the top of Sparrow's jumper and his throat.  Nothing to get upset about here, folks.

It's not conclusive

I can’t help but think part of the “slamming” was his feeble and frankly dishonest defence. 
 

"It was more a show of defence. I didn't want to get rolled over and him be on top of me. that was the position I was pulled into and that was where my strength was."

I’m a bit perplexed as to how the club green-lit this before he offered it to the tribunal.

Real time.
Too long.

 


I see Anderson is representing Toby Greene in his appeal.

Expect it to be upgraded to a 6 week suspension. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Can't see exactly what happens, but it's at least as long as Viney's.

Staggered this has been swept under the carpet. Is something only a 'bad look' if it's shown on repeat by channel 7?

I'm impressed. Not just that you found the event when most of it is cut off at the bottom of the screen, but also the quality of that still photo which must have been taken from the other side of the ground.


I guess it can't be a bad look if you can't see it properly therefore no case to answer

The photos show us what happened. The video shows for how long.

The AFL should get all the photos from the photographer's camera as surely he snapped a whole series of them. They could be played like a flip book animation as evidence.

Yep, pretty clearly not under his neck as has been suggested.

I also like the mental image of them rolling through the pages of a flick book in the hearing... 😆


He gets away with it simply because there isn't the same consistent footage that Viney had against him, those photo's show that it definitely wasn't below the neck (if that's been the excuse thrown around).

At least the so-called Tribunal has dismissed the Greene bulldust appeal. He should have been rubbed out for 2, as should have Selwood. And how the hell was the West Coast man able to get away with throating Sparrow?

One photo here shows bad optics and gross misconduct, the other shows nothing to see.

This club frustrates me. Just heard Lungmuir sticking up for Brayshaw saying he’s not happy with the consistency and yet there is nothing being done that I’m aware of to bring any exposure this. Nothing.

You want our club to get in the media and pot Yeo?

Have you ever seen a club mount a campaign against a player from another club?

we can't risk getting sidelined........bigger fish at stake.........eye on the balll........and all that other rah-ha

 

Meanwhile Greene getting a week just tops off the shambles that is the MRO/Tribunal system.

  • Dangerfield in the 2020 GF - not suspended
  • Astbury in Round 1 - not suspended
  • Daniher in Round 1 - not suspended
  • Hawkins on May - not suspended
  • Fritsch vs North - not suspended
  • Shuey on Mills - not suspended
  • Buddy Franklin - not suspended
  • Greene - suspended for a week

If your argument against Greene is "if you're going to raise your arm/elbow you suffer the consequences if you hit someone in the head", all of the above players should have received a week.

Don't tell me "oh but some of those guys were fined". If you want evidence that fines don't operate as deterrent, look no further than Selwood, who has been fined three times already this year.

Can be back channeled but ultimately the question on the non call has to be asked. This is more to bring into the spotlight the inconsistency and utter failure of Christiansen and the tribunal process. I know we don’t have the video evidence but from what I have seen the incidents appear to be very similar in nature. Yeo doesn’t get sited whilst people were asking for 6 weeks against Viney. Where are those same people? 
 

I watched  the Gus n Gawn vodcast today and Brayshaw was visibly irritated at this situation. Obviously he is bound by the players code but I believe the players were quite frustrated with it. 
 

Someone like Tom Morris should be all over this.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
