Re: MRO Thread
Gill has said a red card system won't happen while he is in charge. Hopefully his replacement feels the same.

Imagine Razor Ray with a red card, the whole team would be sent off.

Re: MRO Thread
So according to the AFL, shoving a player into an umpire is fair game and not only is it just a 1000 dollar fine but you also get to just stroll into an open goal.

It's a strange decision and one that sends mixed messages.

Ridiclous - another reason to hate the Admin of the AFL. They have no idea at all.

Re: MRO Thread
Didn't Greene get 6 weeks for bumping an umpire? This appeared far worse with umpire being bowled over. It also was deliberate.

Re: MRO Thread
Hipwood should get a week for that. It was a really shitty cheap thing to do and can’t be tacitly encouraged by a slap on the wrist.

Agree. The potential for injury was pretty high.
If proven he deliberately intended to push him into the umpire I think 2 weeks is reasonable.

Re: MRO Thread
He should get at least the same amount that Greene got. Absolute minimum.
Intentionally pushed a player into an umpire and caused a heavy collision. It's a complete wanker act and if the AFL is serious about protecting umpires then they should act strongly here.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Agree with this. If it is deemed deliberate (and it certainly appeared to be) it deserves a minimum 6 weeks.
This was much more dangerous to the umpire than anything I have previously seen at this level.

Agree too and the fact his team gained out of it on the scoreboard was manifestly wrong too.

While it was wrong, it was pretty hard for the umpires to actually know what happened.
