    THE AFL Tribunal has overturned Gold Coast midfielder Nick Holman's two-match ban for a chase-down tackle that left Mitch Duncan with concussion, declaring he had not acted carelessly or breached his duty of care to the Geelong midfielder.

    Right decision, otherwise it would be the end of footy as we know it.

    What a waste of everyone's time and energy.
    It shouldn't have been reported in the first place and Christian has lost the plot.
    Surely we have enough umpires on the field to lodge a report if needed and the MRO should only look at things behind the play that the umpires miss.

    I suspect the AFEL will ignore the punching of Cody’s nuts to any real degree, say a $2,000 fine. But this is where I think the system is flawed.

    Cody gets punched in the buts, and the AFEL get $2,000. Why doesn’t the player with the sore nuts get the money? Why does the AFEL deserve to keep the $2,000? It doesn’t mate much sense.

    What about Mundy’s deliberate two fingers in Bont’s eyes?

    It was unbelievably sad and dog from Wilson and it should get a week. It’s the second one in two weeks after Mills hit Stocker, so this is a chance to knock it on the head.

    Thats what Wilson was thinking.

    In what possible circumstance in a ga,e of footy do you have two fingers out near the eye other than to do what he did? Dispicable act. Worse than what happened to Cody.

    Must admit I did want to see it again after it happened, because it did look out of place in context of where the ball was at the time.

    Wilson will get a week if they consider it to have enough impact to warrant a report at all. It's an intentional action and groin is considered the same level of severity as head high so even with low impact it's 1 week.

    The eye poke in real time looks accidental, just hands and fingers flailing as Bont tries to dish it out. On slo-mo though, it looked bad, a real clawing action.

    Look I'm not saying there is anything in this but Razor Ray was the umpire that spotted the goin tap and gave the 50 against Wilson.

    He was also the umpire who didn't give Wilson a holding the ball free when he got Hannan pretty good, and was also the umpire that got Wilson for that holding the man free on the goal line, both of which seemed harsh. Could he have been dealing out a bit of karma to Wilson on purpose?
    I should leave it alone but you're not right

    What I thought was even more Razor Ray was taking the Weightman 50 to one metre out instead of the goal line. He just can't not be involved.
