Buddy - How many weeks?

The severity of the blow is irrelevant. He elbowed him in the end. That's dirty shit and apparently the 'potential to cause injury' is such a thing, even though it only ever gets trotted out against unsociable clubs apparently.

I'd rather blokes get rubbed out for dirty elbows than bumps that accidentally go too high.

Watch it again. It was no where near as bad as Tippet's who got one week.

Tippett raises the elbow high up in the marking contest. That's intentional and careless.

Gordon went to hip and shoulder which went a little high and Jack spun away from him causing the bad angle for Gordon. Unintentional, a tad a careless. Just grazed him. Someone above saying it deserved 2 weeks is laughable. Then Tippett deserves 4.

The severity of the blow is irrelevant.

Obviously that's not correct. Jarrad Waite kicked Luke McGuane in the balls and it was deemed "insufficient force".

"Dirty" doesn't come into it any more. I've never been comfortable with it.

Have to assume there'd be no case to answer for spitting in an opponent's face.
 
All existing MRP records were wiped clean at the start of the season with the new system.
Except for Hayden Ballantyne who got three weeks down to two for this because of an existing bad record:



I'm amazed the MRP didn't try to get Franklin off.

Hawthorn made a thread on their board. LOL!
Too right because for years we got screwed over for the slightest of bumps where Buddy copped 1 to 2 weeks. Now that he plays for the AFL love child, this bump, which is far worse than any bump while at Hawthorn, he walks away with only a week. And the bump against the GWS player Buddy was even cleared. So how would you explain it otherwise. Corruption at its best.

Hawthorn should forfeit the year in protest
