The Tribunal found the incident was still medium impact, but downgraded the sanction to a fine based on "exceptional and compelling circumstances".

    Any clues on the "exceptional and compelling circumstances"???
    Did the Brisbane defence team play Country Road in a karaoke session with a few beers and the tribunal all song along with Charlie?

    It really didn’t take long for Gleeson and Christiansen to reveal themselves as a corrupt joke.
    Greene, Butters, Cameron, under the standard applied to Kozzie should ALL have gotten at least a week. There was potential for serious injury in all three, all three involved head high contact, should be at least one week each, probably more, but they don’t play for Melbourne, case closed.

    He literally was cleared because of his ‘good character’. He was allowed to bring Eddie Bettes and Indigenous elder to vouch for him. This is extraordinary. The rule of law is dead.

    Sorry, should’ve linked: https://www.afl.com.au/news/1110271

    “Cameron's exemplary record was taken into account in the verdict, with the 29-year-old playing for 10 years, or 207 games, without being suspended.”

    I once knocked a bloke out cold on the footy field.

    Luckily, he regained consciousness after I gently whispered my community work into his ear, along with my achievements and good character.

    Probably saved his life come to think of it.

    1 hour ago, whatwhat say what said:

    Cameron cleared

    Anderson finally had a win at the tribunal despite getting references to players suspended previously incorrect 

    An absolute farce. I'll always love the sport of Australian Football but I've fallen out of love with the league, just a corrupt organisation.

    Was found guilty of medium impact, that is a suspension, unless you are a good bloke, who in Cameron’s case work's with Indigenous youth.

    Robbo, Whately on 360 stunned, journos Jay Clark, Glen McFarlane and Ralphy on Midweek Tackle, also stunned and appeared actually angry.

    We have one rule for some and another for others.

    Can’t wait to hear Kingy.

    Laura Kanes’ words of “all players are treated equally” are now quite hollow.

    IMO the sooner the Tribunal Chairman and Christian are gone and the whole system is overhauled, the better.

    Consistency simply does not exist in the AFL judiciary.

    That clown is unbelievable, how can someone like that keep his job and have this much power?

    I don’t know why anyone is surprised at this. The AFL is only in the business of making money. They spend their time and effort creating a facade of equity and fairness - but neither of those things are actually in their best interest.

    Cameron doesn’t play = less money. Therefore Cameron plays. Ditto Maynard. Ditto Cripps.

    Not sure if mentioned here yet but Gary Lyon on SEN this morning brought up the little known fact that Cameron has been FINED 5 times in his career for dangerous tackles.🤦‍♂️

    He doesn’t have a spotless record like Pendlebury for example, and obviously hasn’t learnt from his soft feather warnings

    So many people also blaming Lever for it, wow. He was picked up and thrown backwards and a tackle like that would be a sin bin in the NRL. I do think he put a bit of mayo at the end, but doesn't change the fact the tackle was dangerous.

    Also, trying to use the weight difference as an excuse, Jack Viney has been on record saying his brother can easily take him down and he has him covered by a good 10-20kgs but it doesn't matter if you use your weight correctly.

    What a joke. Obviously not a clear record then. Unbelievable that they would come to that conclusion. Was the AFL lawyer deliberately putting up a limp case again (eg Maynard)?

    Kanes had the perfect opportunity to sack Christian when he threatened to resign over the Maynard debacle last year.

    I can only assume the boys club stepped in.

    Any boss in any organisation would normally take that tantrum and show him the door.

    Disgraceful

    So what's different for Kozzy? Surely he is as popular as Cameron. 

    There's something beyond money, the AFL has their favourite children (Sydney, Geelong et al.)

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
