The wrong decision on the Rohan one doesn’t make the decision wrong for the Shiel suspension.
The MRO needs to be binned. Christian Cannot consistently make decisions and is just making s**t up.
Shiel deserves to be suspended based on his actions, but so did Rohan. 1 or 2 or whatever, but you can’t be letting blokes off with a fine, who make the choice to run past the ball to lay a bump that strikes a player in the head.

darcy is a flog. longs was twice as bad as shiels. 2 for shiel and 4 for long is spot on relative to each other.

shiel and long suspensions are right, as long as long gets at least 4.
thought pickett would get a week, and eberts was as bad as shiels. you wont hear any argument from me that the mrp is an inconsisten joke. just gotta look at the fact it took ablett 3 off the ball punches to the head last year to cop anything.

The way Rohan lifted the elbow makes it as bad as any for mine. Should be at least 2.
Pickett. I thought he was easing up, but still if he'd gotten a week I wouldn't have been surprised.
Ebert. Duty of care says if you bump and hit the head, you're gone, do it at full force and 1 week seems minimum..2 wouldn't have surprised.
Shiel. See Ebert. Probably had a better opportunity to judge where he was hitting so going for the harder penalty isn't crazy.
Long. Seemed to pause and line him up. I'd be tempted to call it deliberate. Sending it to the tribunal is the right call...3 or 4.
If it were me, 3,1,2,2,4 but I tend to be on the tough side.
I don't get Christian's reasoning that Taylor needed a concussion test, therefore was deemed worse
Yet, he was both back on the field before the test and returned to the game afterwards.

I think the MRO is fine, but Christian isn't the person to run it.
Ironically, Shiel, Ebert and Long's are all legal bumps from a timing/distance perspective, but it's collecting the player high that has done them in.
Rohan and Pickett's are both late hits and collect the player high, yet are graded less severely. If Christian wants to talk 'visuals' then picking off a player who has already disposed of the ball is a pretty ordinary look.

At least they bumped a player with the ball
No they didn't. And Pickett is the worst. The ball is long gone when he hits Heeney.

So now Christian uses ‘potential to injure’ in his reasonings again but didn’t for Burgoyne.
He is an inconsistent muppet and yes that goes for Rohan incident also, he can word any report he likes to get an outcome. Following guidelines isn’t even a thing as he can twist anything and get inconsistent findings.
Didn’t need to change any laws after the Burgoyne incident, just throw in the word potential.

Yeah, i've long been saying the MRO needs to be chaired by someone competent.

These are not similar incidents. Rohan was bumping a player who (up until the last split second) had the ball.
Shiel and the North player were both going for a ground ball in dispute. Shiel went past the ball to bump.

The inconsistency is frustrating. Tomahawk did the same thing on Thursday that Crozier got rubbed out for a week earlier.
interesting point made here in the medical report on fox feed: Curtis Taylor's medical report: Treated immediately for concussion and required on-field assessment. Left the ground for 20 minutes but returned to play. Had scans for jaw fracture.
He was hit with 5m57s left and back on the field with 4m24s after sitting on the bench

left the ground for 90s, went back on, then came off and was tested.

Four bumps, four very different outcomes: Inside the MRO's thinking
Why was there different gradings? Michael Christian explains...

Shiel only player in the league to be charged with high impact when Taylor played out the rest game and was cleared of injury
