The giants should absolutely appeal this nonsense.
great decision the player is a slime bag
the whole system is a farce, but this decision makes me feel good .
PS: Ozza, I am talking from emotion and not having a go at your logic.

Re: MRO Thread
Giants appealing. Be interested to know what the basis for the appeal is.

Lets hope they fail and he gets two weeks just because I don't like him.

Re: MRO Thread
Assuming the appeal gets squashed ... the only thing better than GWS failing in another prelim is them failing by the approximate margin of a typical Greene contribution.
I want to see Leon, Phil and Co. continue to defend the selfish, recalcitrant prick after his deranged f*ckwittery costs them a berth in a granny.
Let me put my feet up while you tell me all about how you don't want Toby to go changin' the way he goes about it THEN, wankers.

Well they have changed their tune for the AFL's love child.. This is what was reported with one of Big Red's suspensions.
On Monday, the Match Review Panel had found Redpath guilty of striking Davis intentionally to the head with low impact, with a previous bad record stretching his ban to two matches — with an early guilty plea.

That's because they changed the rules a couple of years ago and did away with carryover points.
The Greenes and Cunningtons of the league are now free to commit what are deemed fine worthy offences to their hearts (and wallets) content.

Re: MRO Thread
Just because the AFL made a mistake last week, I don't see why they should be forced to repeat it.
Greene's ban should stand.

Thanks for that Axe. So a sniper now can just now keep on sniping and his bad record is never taken into account. How ridiculous.

Re: MRO Thread
It's almost like they did this with Toby Greene in mind!!??
Gobsmacking!
Still haven't heard back from Gillon, by the way.

Which is so wrong. Previous record should be taken into account, just like any law court.

Of course in court it is only taken into account for the purposes of sentencing. No mention is made of any record prior to establishing whether the accused is guilty or innocent for the charges being heard. .

Appeal quashed!
I'd be furious if I was the Giants.
But I'm not, so ...

We've been waiting four weeks to say that!
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
