AFL Player 27: Mason Redman 🐕 - Goes whack

[Lore]

Contract Status: Free Agent 2028
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 24, ghostdog

 

[YoboD]

Jesus, you would hope the club challenge this. How is this worse than Franklin and Selwood elbowing and bumping guys in the head?

 

[Seb78]

Surely we contest that. It was a ****** tackle. I mean FFS!

 

[fanuch]

Missed all but the last 10 minutes. Surely it’s not the late tackle on Bont? Wasn’t even a free

 

[JT_the_Man]

Appeal. The call on the day should’ve been holding the ball, it wasn’t even dangerous.

 

[Foreverdon]

I knew it can’t have people thinking the umpires were wrong hopefully we fight it

 

[BomberTime]

He tackled the golden boy and nearly hurt him. AFL can’t have that.

 

[pepsi]

Michael Christian ****ing hates us and there is no point us fighting this at the tribunal.

boncer34 opinion please

 

[fairbump_playon]

OMG I hate this. No sling, no injury. Suspension.

Bont is 6 foot 5 and probably weights 92 kgs.

Is Redman meant to just gently encourage him to ground?

After all that elbow bullshit.

 

[bennyg12]

And Selwood get's off go get f**ked

It’s not careless and there was no impact. His head wasn’t even the first part of his body to hit the ground… It wasn’t a sling.

What exactly have they pinned him on here? All I see is holding the ball…

I’m guessing arm pinned and head hit the ground/ pinned arm means he’s taken responsibility for the players welfare since the player can’t use his arm to protect his own head, then the head hit the ground anyway?

Idk how that exactly is interpreted in the grading though. Bad enough for a suspension?

[brendan84]

Should have elbowed the campaigner in the head. The AFL is a pathetic joke

 

[Duckworth]

Only 1 arm pinned and far from what I thought was a slinging action.

 

[The Donners]

I thought it was holding the ball at the time and my opinion hasn’t changed. If Redman gets off then it was an umpiring error. It’s one or the other.

 

[the PILL]

Wow, there's no sling, spearing or double action. Because the Bont is fighting the tackle Redman had to drop his weight to break the Bonts balance... i can cop a bad umpire decision on the spot etc etc but how have the MRO even concluded this?

 

[andleanback]

How is it medium impact? Absolute joke, how Redman gets a week yet again Bolton got for a couple of weeks back for a genuine sling tackle that actually hurt mccluggage. Challenge

 

[Mercurial89]

It wasn't a sling so it shouldn't be an automatic week. I actually thought Bont jumped a little which made it look worse.

The impact is where you challenge. Lore your a bit more knowledgeable than me, if it was low that downgrades it to a fine correct?

I'd be challenging straight away. We will need him in form and playing the next two weeks to do what we need to do.

 

[Doss]

Bullshit decision. We need to appeal that.

Any footage of that one? That's the game I was thinking of.
There was like 6 dangerous tackle free kicks that game and I don't think a single suspension.

boncer34 opinion please

Argue low impact and get it reduced. Cut and dry.

The Selwood comparison is completely irrelevant.

 

[WindyHillWarrior]

lololol the afl arent even trying anymore

 

[citizen-erased]

Someone should get him to give Christian a counter offer
A more inept operator there is not
Even ScoMo is discharging his office better
