I agree with Lyon, this absolutely should have been a suspension.

Ridiculous that wouldn't be a suspension.

I haven't fact checked this, but the caption said it is his third fine for tripping this year, and sixth fine in total this year. Outrageous!

AFL are just a pathetic org, run by morons

Reckon there's a bit of mollycoddling going on from the AFL to keep WCE and Reid happy in lieu of the constant complaints about Victorian bias levelled by the successionists.

Steven May 3 weeks. He misses our match.

We don't always seem to be lucky when it comes to suspended players, so I will take it. Critically the other missed games are against the Saints and WC. He comes back in time for the Hawks and the Pies.

Looks like I might have spoken too soon. Melbourne have decided to challenge the ban at the appeals tribunal.

The appeals board should be scrapped. It was brought in to challenge suspensions when there was only 1 tribunal. Now that the AFL has the MRP to assess all cases and then the tribunal to challenge MRP decisions, a second means of appealing a decision should be redundant. Since it still exists any player that chooses to take a case to the appeals tribunal should have to put up a $100,000 bond (with $50,000 non-refundable). Stops wasting everyone's time.

Toby Greene in massive trouble for an elbow to Heeney’s head. Has to be a minimum of a week.

yes!

They'll just give him a fine like they always do so he learns nothing.

I just watched it. Another piss weak gutless act by Toby. Heeney lying on the ground and he comes in and smacks him across the head twice.

Gee Greene can't escape that can he?
Heeney pinned to the ground by another player and Greene cops him on the head with a forearm.
He's escaped a lot of suspensions but if he gets off this one he is Houdini

It's intentional, forceful and high contact. He should get a few weeks for that.
