    It's in no way 'natural' to stick out your foot when jumping to grab a ball.

    If you go through the normal process the MRP is suppose to follow it was a careless act with a studded boot, with medium impact to the head. That should lead to 3 weeks down to 2 suspension. He hasn't got a clean record to give him more consideration.

    He wasn't protecting himself in a marking contest as it was a handball that he jumped high for and he knew he had to fend off an opponent. He chose to use his studded boot to fend off Dahlhaus and the result lead to a player having to leave the ground with the blood rule. To me it's as clear as a deliberate trip or kicking in danger but made worse because the impact was to a players face.

    He has already had 2 fines this year. Doesn't that mean he'll get a week for a third fine like Hodge?

    Apparantly Brett Delidio told his brother who then told Kelli who then posted on FB that Toby will be going straight to the tribunal.

    If the medium becomes low then it becomes a fine. Will be interesting.

    I'm not sure how a player leaving the ground with the blood rule can be low impact. It took him a while to clear his head.

    You're right though if it's regarded as low impact.

    I'd say that it's leaning more to high impact than medium. Greene used Dalh's face to push off to try shift his momentum moving away.

    Now do it with deliberate not careless. As you said:

    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    Yep needs to be suspended. I feel like many here do that he did not have to lift his foot.

    I'm off the opinion that the kick was deliberate. Not sure he wanted to kick him in the face but he wanted to use his foot to get a springboard type of impact like when people jump off a wall to get extra height
