      Has to be a week doesn’t it. Was clearly deliberate, unnecessary contact. AFL can’t condone it (even if Greene “would never touch him”).
      Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

        The best scenario for them is 1 week.

        That was a deliberate, petulant and disrespectful act towards the umpire at best. A deliberate, aggressive attempt to intimidate at worst. If it was the latter, my view is that should be 5+ weeks. You simply cannot do that to the umpires.

          100%. Stevic is standing still. At the last moment Greene turns in towards him.

          He's not going to weasal his way out of this one.

            Referred direct to the Tribunal.

            I hope Andrew Dillon tears him to pieces when he gives his evidence.

              Future umpires will be watching this intently. After declaring him innocent all pre-game today, the new footage clearly shows physical contact was made. Then, um, let’s see what the umpires tells the tribunal...

                Good luck for junior umpires getting enough respect if he gets away with it.

                  Well that's the thing, he gets off, what's not stopping the next charged up boofhead playing country footy taking it one step further. The book should be thrown at this grub! Anything less than 4 - 6 weeks is pathetic.

                    Good luck if it’s only 1-2 weeks. This is going to be the standard of what you can get away. Anything less than a message that serious deters anything like this happening to any other umpire is a whole lot of bad. 3++ is the minimum for mine. But wait for the “do we really want to see players potentially miss a Grand Final because of this”. The answer should be “yes” if GWS keeping winning.

                      And when that happens, the AFEL media machines denying the obvious link. It’s not hard to have high standards about umpire safety I hope.

                          And Zach Merrett, you’re next . Libba extremely fortunate to escape concussion, and for that matter a concussion test.

                            How are there people sticking up for him? He should get weeks. You can’t allow that disrespect.

                              It is astounding isn’t it. I heard boofhead Brereton today on Fox somehow interpret from the footage that Matt Stevic was apologising to Greene for being in his way. Really !!

                              How has this great divide come about between the media’s ( positive ) spin on Greene against that of the wider fan base sentiment? They talk as if they are speaking for us, somehow believing that WE want to see this grub do his thing or WE believe that he’s being vilified.

                              The AFL media spin on Greene is FAKE NEWS.

                              When my kids are so often confused by what they’re hearing from this Mötley Crüe of so called experts, requiring their parents to step in to provide parental guidance, you know something is terribly wrong.

                              Hoepfully these Fox and 7 neanderthals go the same way as the Footy Show, cave men and dodo birds.
