The Thomas kick.

Really bad look. He will get a week or a fine. Won't be nothing.
I have to agree it's the the look that it creates. It further illustrates this bloke's lack of discipline, he was barely on the ground and he gets involved in this crap. If he doesn't get rubbed out then Scott should drop him because he could be a liability next week.

Don't worry about the kick, worry about how Lindsay Thomas smuggled rocket blasters into the MCG through his boots. Grimes reacted like he'd been hit by an RPG.

How many for Rance for forcefully breathing in Lindsays face?
Almost took his head off, turned his legs to jelly and made him see the Mother Mary!

Zero, don't be silly.
 
6 weeks based on potential to cause injury.

Had he kicked him really hard in the face instead of lightly pushing him in the chest he could have shattered his jaw causing shards of bone to sever his carotid artery and lead to certain death.
 
Hopefully nothing, Grimes to get a Razzie nomination.

That said, pretty stupid by Thomas when the umpire was less than 2m away.

I have only seen that phrase used for Hawthorn players.

Actually, if you have a look at the footage, Rance got in a couple of solid jumper punches to the chin. No doubt Thomas overdid the reaction of throwing his head back. But the ump had a clear view, and refused to pay a free to Thomas that would have been paid to most other players in the comp.
 
Purely accidental. How was Lindsay expected to know grimes would put his face right there when he tried to get up?

Will it matter if he's undisciplined in North's last game of the year?
 
Waite was done for staging after being kicked by King last year, and he didn't carry on nearly as much as Grimes. Richmond sooks should be thankful

Too soft. Lifetime ban.

Its interesting that the MRP found sufficient force in Thomas' push but not in Fyfe's knee to Shiels' stomach or bump on Jacobs' head...

Hmmm...
