No wonder he took it as licence to continue to indulge in such tactics.

Shades of the Ablett fiasco with repeated head high contact charges.
I don't think that is on the tribunal, who can only adjudicate on the case put before them.

The first week was contrived with the AFL Counsel only seeking a fine. The Tribunal had nowhere else to go.

Michael Christian has circumvented the AFL contrivance by imposing the suspension forcing Greene to actual be tried on the evidence.

The fallout from this will probably mean a new MRO next year with Christian stepping aside citing personal reasons.

Those personal reasons will actual be "Personally Pushed Out by AFL Hierarchy for challenging the Status Quo"
