Horrible action, Reid was already heading over the boundary but Maynard gives him a shove (which had the potential to cause serious injury). I think he gets a week, minimum.

I couldn't believe Maynard was the one who ended up with the free kick.
Yes I know it was for deliberate but his action was after that so should have been reversed.

Those calling for any type of penalty need to realise which club Moore is the captain of

It looked quite vicious actually but it’s a Collingwood player so nothing will happen.

Or Sicily or Greene. Would have been relentless media coverage and the AFL would have given a massive fine.

FMD! And we had people wanting Mansell to be suspended for his innocuous bump on Martin two weeks when he did his knee.
The AFL needs to ask itself, is this a good look for the game? Did this incident have the potential to cause injury? Does it want players being pushed over the boundary line into the fence or interchange? If the answer is no to all then it should have handed a suspension to Maynward. And this player has form, let's not forget he snuffed out Brayshaw's career.
In my opinion, when the MRP and by extension the AFL are selective in who and what gets sent to the MRP or tribunal they are showing the system for what it is, a farkin joke of epic proportions.

Well McGovern copped a week for pushing someone into a chair over the boundary a few years back so there is already a precedent.
And wasn't as bad as this one, as far as I remember.

Coaching my junior team on the weekend and the same thing happened. It is one of my pet hates - pushing/bumping players from behind at the boundary is a weak and dangerous act. We had a kid break his wrist from the same action a few years back. It shouldn't have to result in injury in order for the action to be penalised. The whole point is to prevent injury by sanctioning players so others less likely to do it.

Such a cowardly move too! the ball is no longer in the play, the victim is unbalanced and blindsided. Hardly surprising the biggest dog in the afl is the culprit and even less surprising is he isn't even cited for it
Everything that germ does is minor to you lot, he's a dog and always will be

I was surprised more wasn't made of this incident. Players should not be flying through monitors on the boundary line, in typical fashion we will look back at this incident when a player has a serious injury next time.
Not very proactive by the AFL here.

This exactly. Imagine if someone did this to Naicos? There would be a royal commission into it.

Yep, next time it happens and someone does get injured, not just a monitor, the AFL will mount that high and almighty horse and scream from the rooftops it's not a football action and it's something we don't want to see in our 'great' game.
The pusher will likely cop a few weeks so the AFL can claim they are taking these actions seriously. But honestly, it will be another johnny come lately moment for the AFL because they can't see pass their noses with any of this crap.
I suppose you think Darcy Moore didn't do anything wrong either...

The bloke has a history. Deadset thinks he can get away with it, like his captain. Maybe he'll end another player's career prematurely...and nothing will happen.
