    Re: MRO Thread

    The thing with Greene, and I'm not comparing it to the Selwood issue (but they're probably both the same in this way anyway), is that he would have known exactly where he was hitting Dangerfield slip or no slip because that is who he is and it's what he does.
    TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

      I agree with you but I don't reckon "being a known arsehole" is one of the criteria the result is judged on.

        Well it should be for Greene. 5 extra weeks because.

            Ha ha I don't disagree.

            Although maybe he knew something we didn't know at the time when he booted Dahlhaus in the face.

                    That’s stiff. He only brought him to ground that way because he’s so much smaller than Bont. If he tackles him any other way then Bont likely breaks the tackle, takes 4 bounces and kicks a goal.

                      There better not be any delayed concussion for Bont. Last thing we need.

                        It should be 2 weeks based on the action, with a 2 week discount based on who he hit.

                          TBH, at the time, I thought both of Bont's free kicks (this one and the holding man from which he kicked a goal) were pretty horrible decisions in our favour.

                            If the roles were reversed you would think Selwood would still get a fine and Toby a suspension.

                              Yeah free kick at best for the Bont tackle
                              If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

                                This is just another example of you holding back your feelings mate, I wish you'd be a bit more open with them.
