in that last split second he was where he was purely because of a legitimate attempt to mark to mark the ball. to then claim he was a non contester is really getting over technical. there is also a duty of care on both players. greene himself was in a very vulnerable position being already legitimately air borne. anyway, let's agree to disagree
-
so, ok, no official grade below careless (for a charge to be made) however that is what maynard achieved. it being regarded as a "football action" i guess the real grade below careless then, is a no-charge so to reword my original, greene's defence could argue it wasn't careless and therefore no-charge at all. by deeming it accidental or a football act. wonder if gleeson will allow a bio-mechanics expert to give evidence on greene's mid air split second choices?
-
maynard was completely different. maynard hit well after gus had disposed of the ball. it was not during a football action as well as other considerations
-
by "accidental" i meant the grade below careless ... whatever it is called now yes, i know this case was graded careless ... just posing the question of whether it really was
-
sorry for that ... but when i looked it definitely said in stock just re-checked and it says In Stock For Same Day Despatch but then down below it says Out of stock strange, that

i presume they can't have it later at punt road ground because the lighting is not up to afl lighting standards for games and video streaming.

you keep saying greene wasn't contesting the ball. he certainly was, up and until it was deflected and a collision was immininent. this was in a SPLIT SECOND before contact. it is disingenuous for you to insist he was a non-contestant
-
like i said later. a catch-20 of choices. i'm not convinced in this case that a simple putting out his arms whilst airborne with forward motion and with knees up solves the dilemma. could well be more dangerous for both players. ymmv. but the ball was deflected by boyd at the last split second whilst greene was in a marking action. at this point it couldn't be marked and a collision was inevitable. even if he continued in his marking attempt there would have been a serious collision. look, i'm no fan of greene and his record of rough play, and i'm certainly no fan of tough thuggish play, but in this situation i'm happy to view it as an (unfortunate) football act and therefore not "careless".
-
if he didn't turn and brace but continued the marking attempt the end result could well have been a knee into boyd's face and both players more seriously injured. if they insist he shouldn't have turned at last split second they would have to explain what he should have done and what that likely outcome would have been. it was a catch-20 of choices
-
not quite accurate. the ball that bounced off his shoulder was in fact deflected by boyd so wasn't on its original trajectory. greene was entitled to contest the mark and leave the ground. at the last split second it became obvious a collision was inevitable so the question is was greene allowed to protect himself? he couldn't avoid the collision. additionally was this accidental or careless in grading?
-
if toby hadn't turned his body, what do you think would have happened? there would certainly still have been a collision it might have been worse for boyd 2 players might have been injured as it was, boyd had minimal hurt, so does this mean toby made the right decision? this is a very, very difficult one and finally, was it accidental or careless you be the judge

lotta leaking up at the gabba last night persisting down all night
-
i think greene's defence would be to argue accidental vs careless can see this going mro -> tribunal -> appeals board

so, only 5 rounds in and the new "potential to cause injury" upgrading impact category, now has a novel and neat circumvention thanks to the ever ingenious and malleable mr. gleeson. only the afl could contrive such a great escape. helpful [censored] abound in many spheres.
