Weitering on Toby Greene, is he in trouble?

[CarterS]

Struggle a bit to see the difference between this and the incident that Zorko got a week for earlier in the year, would love to see the MRO explain how its low and Zorko was medium.

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Why does this flog start with “Hearing”.

Probably because he heard something... just at a guess.

Zorko has prior reputation for being an utter p***k on field, Weiters has always been regarded as a clean and fair player

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Lol that was predictable that he would get a fine.

In essence hes guilty of the charge but plays for a big vic club in a final so he gets a fine.

How would you grade it?

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Geelong and Handb flogs

EFA

Double EFA

 

[CakeEater]

Of course. I mean, Christian hasn't tried to suspend any of our players this year.

Time to put down the pitchfork. Correct decision was made.

What pitchfork ODN?

Im just saying it was oh so predictable that he wouldnt get punished as he plays for a big vic club who is in an elimination final.

 

[Andre the Giant]

So Weitering tries to scoop Greene’s eyes out and gets a fine and Bedford’s tackle causes no injury and he misses a final. These guys are having a laugh.

GWS is the over-punished child of the AFL.

1 week. Same as Greene and Zorko......
But they play for non vic clubs.....

If there is no case to answer why did he get fined.? That doesn't make sense.

 

[Thrawn]

Absolute Horsesh!t, Greene gets eye gouged this game, he's been struck in the head only weeks ago, not even a free kick payed. If the boot was on the other foot Greene would have copped multiple weeks. There's no consistency.

Can you show the footage where Weitering actually gouged his eye?

Swap roles and it still would've been a fine, there was nothing in it.

 

[SBYM]

I'm hearing he actually wrote "Typing" but then his missus told him to stop being a silly flog by commentating his own life.

I have a theory the MRP sit around giggling amongst themselves like school kids when they decide outcomes.

Let's let this one through (giggle giggle) that'll get 'em

..and...and...wait (snicker) we'll suspend that other guy for that accidental bump thingy

brilliant (twitter snicker tweet)

You have a very fantastical definition of "scoop".

Was Weitering holding a waffle cone too?

The bent finger in a scratching position according to the tribunal. It was in the verdict.

You're struggling to see the difference? Seriously?
Zorko had him pinned to the ground, was on top of him and made an unnatural reach to his face from under his armpit and a pinching motion with his fingers around the eyes. If you're struggling with that, you probably shouldn't operate a vehicle on the road (assuming you do - maybe you don't).

Theories are fun.

 

[Jeremias]

Very relieved.

Not sure Weitering should've copped a suspension but I'd rather not give an incompetent MRO the opportunity to give him one.

It was oh so predictable that he wouldn't get suspended (he did get punished), because it wasn't worthy of a suspension. Nothing to do with who he plays for.

same reason why cerra's dangerous tackle suspension was thrown out when none of the other like cases were

follow the money

Enlighten me

Taking it way too seriously dude. “Weiters” got off for eye gouging, you should be happy.

I love it. Gone this far, may as well keep going.

In for a penny, in for a pound.

Not what you want it to get. How would you GRADE it?
