The fact Cunnington and Goldstein were even looked at is an indictment on the game

It's out of control the amount and type of incidents players are being for suspended/fined for. The fines especially this year are just revenue raising, you can't contest them because you have to risk 10K to fight a $1500 fine and nobody is going to that.

Higgo has copped two this year and i'm still not even sure what they were for.

But I thought Goldstein and Cunnington committed dog acts?!

Boooooooo

I'm sorry, but with the steep increase in umpire contact fines this season, what the umpires are doing during games needs to be looked into.

Because I somehow doubt the players have decided to go out of their ways to collect umpires.

One was for bringing the game into absolute farce due to being knocked out when quite clearly he stepped into a bloke who was quite willing to tackle. The other was for bleeding on the Telstra Dome turf

 

[ferball]

Surprising level of self awareness from a bloke whose nickname was Lethal.

 

[ferball]

ha ha. Who's the Melbourne guy that isn't even looking but points and complains? Its like the whole thing is staged!

I thought he looked up and saw his teammate having an after lunch nap and asked if he could get his blanket and join him. TBF I don't think he started mouthing off and pointing till he saw Oliver on the ground.

Another 3 this week. Seriously.

Also GCS players given fines for belting Higgins off the ball, apparently equal in severity to an umpire getting in your way (Cunnington another umpire contact fine)

 

[Firestarter]

Big shock. Someone gets away with hitting Higgins.

 

[darko]

How May only got a fine is beyond me.

Higgins is a free target thanks to Burton getting away.

When this is the coverage, is it any wonder?

 

[MrBlueandWhite]

Looks like the MRO are setting a precedent. Opposition/taggers can absolutely belt Higgins and get away with a fine. Way to reward the ball player that makes the game appealing to watch...

Intentional, Medium, High is my call.

 

[gokangas]

Tex will get one week.

Careless

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Careless

He ran past the ball without looking at it, it was intentional.

If they grade it careless its to lessen the impact against a "star"
