Eddie Everywhere will be busy hanging off the end of fat vlad's knob trying to get Wellingham off with 2 weeks. That useless little scum sucker from the filth will get 4 weeks after taking an early plea if everything is right in the world. But Eddie Everywhere will be working his bollocks off to get him off with 2 weeks. And if that happens, I will be writing letters to the entire board of the AFL complaining about the bullshit decision.
If Taylor Walker's sling tackle is considered worse than a straight up shirtfront that left a man with a broken jaw then the entire AFL commission (bar Fitzy) and the MRP needs to resign because they are ******* the game over big time.
If he gets off with just 2 weeks... if I was Carlton, I would be suing him for simmo's wages for the 4 weeks he is off work because of that little thug and I would be suing Collingwood for not disciplining their players properly.
I don't know exactly how it works but a MRP penalty of 4 weeks is not justified after a callous shirtfront resulting in a broken jaw and 4 weeks on the sidelines to the injured player. It just doesn't seem fair.
In theses circumstances, if the MRP is limited by rules as to the penalty it can hand down, then it should have discretion to refer the matter to the Tribunal to consider the consequences on the injured player and deliver a just penalty.
