So you are now not allowed to leave the ground to attempt to smother a handball or kick ? Wtf  this getting ridiculous 

Depends on the club and what the media decides

Played golf with Adrian Anderson a few years back just after the tanking debacle,

He hates Melbourne.

Why TF we use him is beyond me.

Kysaiah Pickett's ban has been upheld. He'll miss this week's game against Brisbane.

Rivers tackles Butters at full pace. Butters falls and shoulder hits the ground first. Dangerous tackle. MRO. Rivers fined $3759

 

Greene sling tackles Andrew. Andrew falls and his head hits the ground. MRO. Nothing to see here. 🤢🤢🤢🤢

Wasn't it Adrian Anderson who was arguing against us all those years ago for the Trengove sling on Dangerfield?

He gets us both ways  😭

I can’t believe Greene was found innocent 

Mac Andrews was slung to the ground and his head bounced off the turf….

WTF

I look forward to all the reasonings next time around when it’s one of the afl’s favourites they need to get out of a minor bump.. 

Sounds like a pretty average performance from Anderson but the lawyering up front is only part of the process, other key pieces include “how will this make the AFL look in the media?” and “how will this affect the class action lawsuits down the track?” 

This HAS to be the standard now.
I always thought it unlikely he'd get off but was bemused as anyone about Fogerty's collision with Fyfe being graded the same as Kozzie's.
If your feet leave the ground and you hit someone in the head then you'll be suspended. Clearly Maynard would have got multiple weeks under the new rules. 

 

The way Kozzie was portrayed in the media compared to Maynard last year is what has made me furious about this. 
All we could hear was how courageous Maynard is and how his impact was a footy incident… Kozzie cops sniper comments, and destined for weeks comments.
 

If this is the decision made by the AFL then get rid of the low grading on impact regarding head high contact. It’s not going to get any lower than Kozzie’s 

The AFL make it up as they go! Totally laughable!, That piece of excrement from Filth makes my blood boil, AGAIN,  cheeezus Im am totally and thoroughly Peeeeezzed! OF 

Time for RAGS to debut!! 

Gee this MRP and tribunal is the thing of Fantasy! Land. Just watch interpretation and reinterpretation get a fair airing,particulalrly if you are Ferals, Carltank, or Jeelong! STINKS!

Never.  If you don’t argue you get walked over all the time, not a waste if it helps next time
