Kysaiah Pickett on report

[McQueen 17,864]

Not the best of looks but I’d be [censored] if he gets time. 
A rough conduct fine?

 

[hardtack 10,480]

He’ll get a week or two and rightly so. He launched himself like an Exocet missile and is extremely lucky that he didn’t do some major damage to Smith. Intent should be punished and the intent there was pretty clear.

(I won’t be complaining however, if he gets off with a fine)

Cripps got off and won the Charlie last year. 
 

Oh how the MRO interpretations turn so quickly.

intent is never punished; effect is

no concussion for smith, play on

8 weeks!!

Is he potentially in double trouble?

Errant but well timed. 😎

wow, franklin's hit way nastier than pickett's

 

[Beetle 4,577]

Hoping for a fine.

Incident occurred when we needed a lift so I’ve go no issue with his intention.

Thought he was immense tonight.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,072]

Didn't see Franklin's but I can see Pickett getting anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks especially with the current climate of concussion legal actions against the AFL. If he gets off it would be a miracle. Smith playing on helps the cause but the AFL won't like seeing hits like that replayed through the week and will want to send a message that we are serious on potential head injuries.

I think that was just captured at the right (wrong?) moment - seems it was just part of the push and shove but the pic makes it look like he flushed him on the jaw.

Similar to Rioli on Rowell last year and he got off 

[Froggy 0]

Smother attempt gone wrong.

Yep

Watched the reply, was just grappling,  no punch thrown, not even a little jumpery one

At least 1, maybe 2

There's no way it's just a fine

Not really. Rioli argued he was contesting the ball. Pickett can’t argue that. 

In the matrix it should be careless, low, high contact, which is a fine, but the Guidelines allow the MRO to lift the impact rating up where there is potential for harm and I expect that to occur here to raise it to medium, meaning a 1 week suspension.

But in the current climate I won’t be surprised if he gets high impact and/or intentional, to jack the suspension up further.

He’s a Melbourne player. Will get 25 to life. Buddy will get a bravery medal. 

[Demon Disciple 11,957]

3 down to 2 with early plea, throw in another 1 for the hook shot on McCrae.

3 total, which he should accept imo. Reckless, but he was trying to change the momentum of the game, go hard or go home.

If he gets more than a week after what Cripps copped last year I'd be disgusted. Franklin threw an elbow. What will he cop. Cripps' opponent got wiped out, Smith got up like nothing happened. Smith has my respect. Tough guy not just a pretty face. Pickett deserves a week. Cripps should a got 3+. At least he got to enjoy the 2 worst feelings at the end of games i reckon he's ever felt playing Footy.

Laugh react because otherwise I'd cry!

[layzie 33,662]

I think he gets 2 weeks. Leave the ground, pay the penalty.

And the photo of the Cripps incident was so very like Kozzies bump. Feet well off the ground.  PLUS the other player was concussed. Interesting this one..
