I'm not getting into this... anyone that cares, watch the footage, yes there is a "clenched fist in the face", but there is no punch or force to it.

"I'm not getting into this" - proceeds to get into this.
I've never suggested there was a punch, or force to it. You shouldn't have a clenched fist in somebody's face, it's fairly simple.

0. Cripps got off so what’s the difference here?
Sorry, the 'I'm not getting into this' comment was meant to be reflect that I didn't want to engage in discussion/debate on the incident in question - wooosh
Edit - but obviously was to let other readers understand the intent of my original comment (i.e. your misinformation)

So then why did/are you?
I feel silly for replying to this... but I'm not. I have not addressed the incident at all (nor have you). I've merely been replying to your obvious trolling. You will not hear anymore from me. have a good night

Your definition of trolling is odd. All I did was post a photo of someone with a clenched fist in somebody’s face.I feel silly for replying to this... but I'm not.

Careless, high impact and high contact. 2 weeks

Dogs were shit scared of him after it, fumbly and jittery. Libby wanted none of him either

Probably not the first person to get Bailey high this year...
Agreed.
Hunter Clark got his face caved in and there was no case to answer.
Smith was completely unharmed and got straight back up so I reckon Kosi gets off.

He's lucky Smith didn't get concussed otherwise he'd be looking at 10 games. I think he should get 3 or 4
Really enjoyed the standing ovation he got from the Dees fans when he ran to the bench for nearly taking someone's head off. Great sniping worthy of an applause.

The AFL really love penalising the outcome rather than the action. It still has to be 3 weeks minimum.
The action itself is absolutely horrible. That has potential to cause major damage but somehow Smith escaped any injury at all. Pure luck in the end.

What on earth are you talking about?!

We've got to start taking the outcome of the equation. Pickett's intent was to smash a bloke. He was off the ground , no eye for the ball at all and got him high. With the AFL facing a massive lawsuit on concussion, any action like this has to penalised. I agree - 3-4 weeks.

The f*** we're you watching? His forearm?
He'll get a week for leaving the ground but as Cameron Mooney pointed out to the frothing Brad Johnson, Pickett's shoulder hit Smith in the chest. As he turned his body his back collected him high but the initial contact was below the head.
The weird thing is that whilst they officially don't do this - they sometimes randomly do.
