We should have been ready for a hard, fair, even brutal physical contest.

We should not have been prepared and expecting assaults that had nothing to do with any fierce contest for the ball. The ball was not in dispute in these incidents including Himmelburgs. I feel genuinely sickened at the footage.

Perfectly summed up.

That was a different era and has no relevance to today.

Greene plays right on the edge and often over the edge. The Dogs players I mentioned did exactly the same - the era is irrelevant, they pushed the envelope and often crossed the line to unacceptable, much like Greene.

I'm no Greene fan but I'm more annoyed at our lack of response yesterday. He'll cop his right whack but his team gets to keep playing finals because they were so much harder at the contest thsn we were (sometimes illegally).

Greene needs to be KO'ed as far as I am concerned. He has punched caleb in the face and got suspended, Kicked Dahl in the face and all that was done was a free kick, but this latest act, is clearly not pushing the envelope, this is a dirty filthy, scum bag act.

I didn't like the way our players played in the era you're referring to. It was the only thing I didn't like about being a Bulldogs supporter at the time, because without it we could have been just as good as we were and with it we were made to look stupid when we couldn't get it done on the big stage over and again.

It was a different era, and the behaviours exhibited by these players should remain in the past.

Toby Greene is a serial offender, but what's worse, he seems to actually either choose instances where players are their most vulnerable or smaller than he is. His most recent efforts against Daniel, Dahlhaus (you can see a players face in your field of vision when looking at a football) and now Bontempelli prove this.

He is a little thug and the football world, particularly the Giants, would be a lot better if this was just openly admitted. I mean, even Greene himself might have a chance at redemption if it was admitted publicly and the issue was addressed publicly. Can you imagine the impact on his behaviour if the Giants did what they could within the confines of the players association agreement to discipline him - or better yet - work with he and his management to discipline him?

This is a person who is a known violent offender. He commits acts of violence on the footy field often. I am sick of the lenience he is afforded, he should be publicly shamed as the arsehole he is.

Isn't KO'ing someone on the footy field something from a long, long time ago? It's up to the umpires and the AFL to stamp it out and yes it's an apalling rap sheet over a period of time against just one club

He is currently being sued by the bouncer than he smashed up one night at a bar.

This is where vigilante justice comes into it. When the system isn't effective in influencing the poor behaviour of individuals positively sometimes an alternative type of justice can be.

Call Raylan Givens to deal with it

I am not condoning it, but that is how I feel - very angry at watching the footage.

The AFL and the umpires need to step in and make a stand. The AFL just seems to be more than a little selective in how they apply it.

I'm a bit surprised that Himmelberg got away with a fine, Eye gouging is a whole other story

[Doc26]

I would like to hear our Club come out tomorrow and make a stand to condemn this sniper.
We know already that the AFL will be in damage control to protect its asset. We know the fawning and defence that the likes of Whateley has had for this pig. We all know what the Giants football boss, Wayne Campbell, would be mouthing if the tables were turned. They were doing their utmost to have Bont rubbed out a few weeks back. Come on PG, announce a presser to out this sniper once and for all.

Btw Himmelberg also happens to be the other player driving Bont’s head into the ground with Greene. Himmelberg was targeting Bont on multiple occasions.

At least he got kicked in the nuts, and it was because of his push on Dunks that it occurred, so he effectively kicked himself in the nuts.

I would have thought we woud have to wait for the tribunal? They are sitting tomorrow night.
