Toby Greene boot to Luke Dahlhaus face.

[Hawk_francais]

Why he brings his foot up so high, I don't know. It clearly wasn't part of the catching motion. Just WTF is he doing with his leg like that? It's quite reckless, there's no way that Dalhaus can protect himself in that situation. Greene probably needs a few weeks.

Similar foot/leg motions when a player is in the air legitimately happen every game.

At full extension with an opponent running at them? Care to give us a single example?

The person I quoted asked why his foot was in the air which is what I was replying to.
The fact contact was made with a player above the shoulders is what makes this case unique

Yep. People have been posting them on twitter since it happened.

If it wasnt Tobey there wouldnt be a discussion.

Care to show us then? Still struggling to think of an equivalent incident.

 

[hoianbulldog]

LOL.
If he actually looked at him and did it, I would say he'd be looking at 3-4 weeks. Intentional.

What he did was careless, high contact and moderate impact. Usually would get 1 or 2 weeks which would then be dicounted down to a week or fine. Bad record means no fine.

Does his charge sheet mean he doesnt get the week discount for pleading guilty?

 

[Clems Knee]

No it doesnt. He was going for the ball. No different.

The rules of our game say there is a difference. There is a list of prohibited contact, and many of these specifically do not apply to a marking contest. (which is why umpires have to adjudicate if a player has made an unrealistic attempt to mark and then contacted a player illegally).

Can you repost them here? Genuinely interested.
I don't remember any incident like this before. I agree that Greene is disliked, but don't think that is the reason there is a discussion. The blood streaming from Dahlhaus' face probably has something to do with it.

If convicted, this is a 'new' offence. As such there should be room to make it a suspended offence

Ie no punishment unless it happens again

Is that Kouta?

I think he still gets a discount but it's +1 for bad record. Careless, medium impact, high contact becomes 3 down to 2.

yep and both marks.

Do you have footage? I'd like to see if the players used the opposition's face (or body) as a means to twist in the air.

They seem like marking contests to me.

All of those examples are in marking contests. Not applicable

No he doesn't get a discount.

No footage just picks.

Johnston and Sloane said "If your eyes are on the ball you can do anything you want to protect the space" on Game-day.

Lol..don't you mean "anything it takes"

Go read the f'ing rules!!!!!

The rules delineate between marking and other types of contests....


Wow. So much ignorance here.

Contested ball. He didnt leap at the player.
He lept straight up eyes on the ball.

Last line is just the usual garbage in here.

Parker from the swans did a similar thing to Birchall a few years back.Only got him in the chest.
Got nothing but a free kick against.

 

[Adz]

2 weeks. As we saw with Grundy you have a duty of care. Possibly 3 with his record.

Yet its the same rule with bumping etc .

If you choose to use whatever means to protect your space and you then hit the opposition in the head, you must accept the consequences.

Would you say the same if he held a clenched fist out at a player running towards him? A studded boot if anything is worse.
