But they did, they gave him a 50m penalty. It wasn't high, Robinson wasn't injured etc etc. It really just seems another way of making money to me.

Agreed. It was really just a late bump, albeit a hard one. The deterrent should be on-field as a free and/or 50m penalty.
It wasn't high contact and didn't cause injury (Robbo originally held his shin, where no contact was made, was able to get up and take his 50m penalty and played the rest of the game out as one of their best).

Another fine for Levi.
If he is found guilty of another low-level offence, automatic one match suspension.
So tunneling is acceptable now!

They didn't actually say FOOT ball.'Had his eyes on the ball at all times'!

Will have to have another look, but at the time though Websters actions were disgusting and cowardly which caused the Carlton players to remonstrate. Could have easily caused some damage

Webster did as we'd want Levi or anyone else to do and crashed the pack.
A free kick is about right.

Levi needs to be careful for the rest of the season.
Like his attack on the footy, but that is where it needs to end. Two fines in two weeks is not good for anyone.

In the process of marking not after the mark is taken, Levi copped a fine for doing this last week but this week it is okay?

I don't have a problem with either incident, free kick or down field are probably fair enough.

The one against Robinson was a brain fade. Got frustrated that he didn't get a free kick when Robbo crashed into his back. He needs to turn this aggression from the man to the ball.

Wow, didn't even jump off the ground and make it look like he was going for the ball

From my point of view... that it clearly tunnelling... he never left the ground and never even looked up at the ball. He was always going to hit the guy(s) going for the mark low on their bodies.
Should be worthy of at least a week. As I commented to the AFL twitter account, what would have happened if Cripps or Lamb had suffered serious injury. Would it still be ok?
Never got a response.

But but but the MRP said that 'he had his eyes on the ball at all times'
They must have been viewing 'blurred' vision of the incident!

This is what annoys me, it is a dangerous act, penalise it before someone gets hurt.

My biggest concern is that no one was protecting the space behind Lamb.

Was he in a position to mark the ball at any stage? If the answer is no, then he gets a suspension because what he did is dangerous.
IMHO there is no chance he marks the ball even if both Carlton players missed it completely. Therefore his attack on the contest was purely to cause damage, not an attempt to get the ball.

I don't like violence on the footy field, and I certainly don't condone it. But if that happened at local level, I can assure you they would come from everywhere and it would get ugly, very quickly...
It's about intent for me. What was he trying to do? Certainly not compete for the footy.
Bad act, deserved a week minimum...
