It was a silly thing to do, despite Fev's four goals, Glass was in his mind all day. Fev surcomed to the mind games and had a brain laps, probably will cost him a week.

worth a free kick, not really much in it just undisicplined, wasnt apunch more of like sticking his arm in the way. if the tribunals want to be pricks maybe a week, but the umps have been looking after fev lately so id say theyd want him to play in the all star game next week?
even if rubbed out, suspended players are capable of playing in the tribute match... Kerr is in.

I can't see how Fev's love tap will get more than a reprimand. Low contact, low impact, negligent, in play. Lowest end of the scale. Given a 25% reduction for an early guilty plea and another 25% for a good recent record (not suspended since Rd 4 2005) would make him a monte for a reprimand. Actually never swung his fist at all, just a block on a tagger with clenched fist protect Judd. Just got it wrong. Be considered no more than negligent.

I have to stand corrected on his good record. His one game suspensions in both 2005 & 2006 will actually add 20% to his activation points.I would have to got the opposite. Some are saying open hand, i'm not so sure. If it was a fist, it was clearly intentional (3 points), medium impact as selwood appeared to be winded for a long time (2 points), and body contact (1 point), in play (0 points). 6 points is 225 demirits and 1 week for an early plea assuming no carry overs.
Even if they class it reckless instead of intentional (2 points), and maybe even low impact if selwood was a faking wussbag (1 point), it would still be 4 points and possibly a week even with carry overs / early plea.
Either way, if it gets picked up by the MRP, it will be a week, and only a week.

Should surely not be classed as any more than negligent. The way I read it in the link below is it is a level 1 offence, worth 80 points (Negligent, in play, low contact, and with either low or medium impact is a Level 1 offence). Add 20% for the 2 games he's been suspended for in the last 3 AFL seasons that gives him 96. Take away 25% for an early guilty plea gives him 72 points. As every 100 points gives you a week, he should get a reprimand. Given that, he may as well fight the charge if I read it correctly.
It's all described in the link below.

Nice link. Thanks for that, I tried to find it earlier but couldnt.
I don't see how you can class it as neglegent. He ran past the contest, directly to selwood and made contact. His intention all along was to make contact, there was clearly no other thought in his mind. As to what the contact he made in the end was, is irrelevant to his intention.
Consider the Maxwell on Murphy bump a couple weeks back. Classed as high, and intentional. This is a borderline call, because whilst I think Maxwell did intentionally mean to hit Murphy, I don't think he intentionally meant to hit him high, it was just that Marc moved a certain way that meant he got hit high instead of body.
My point is, fev may have only "intended" to bump selwood or push him out of the contest, but due to selwood moving, he ended up "striking" him. Still intentional any way you look at it.
Intentional, low impact, body contact, 5 activiation points, level 2 striking offence, 125 demerit points multiplied by 20% is 150.
Not that often is anything considered "intentional" at the tribunal. Their meaning of "intentional" is interesting. It really has to be on purpose (just short of pre-mediated) before they go with that. Remember Barry Hall played in a GF in 2005 getting a reprimand with the exact same offence.Nice link.

I found it earlier. Other than wrestling, which doesn't count, Fev has 2 matches that will add 20% to his record, 2005 against Freo and 2006 and the Swans (one match each). it's 10% for each match and caps at 50%. He been to the tribunal a bit but alot for silly wrestling type charges.In your example, 150pts + carryover pts? -25% (if pleads guilty). So even if the carryover pts are at the high end (90) - he would remain under 200pts - so 1 week with high amount of carryover pts. If he has no carryover pts = 120pts = 1 week + 20 carryover pts.
Does anyone know where to find any players record, carrover pts, etc.?

This cracked me up... you mean it has to be on purpose for the tribunal to class it as intentional? That's crazy talk.
My point was, I don't think they will class the actual strike as intentional, but the contact definitely was. Use the term pre-meditated if you want, because it looked to me like the big fev had definitely pre-meditated some form of contact on selwood. He may have only intended to block him or something, but that is irrelevant. Intentional in my book.
People refer to barry hall playing in the granny... did he actually get off, or did he get the hearing delayed? Maybe I am thinking of andrew dunkley way way back. Was barry's under the points system? If not then it doesn't count.
Read the intepretation of "intentional" and "reckless" in the link before anything cracks you up. It's not as back and white as you might think. You might be laughing the other side of your face. You find not that much is actually considered "intentional". You might find it might be classed as "reckless" (just short of the interpretation of "intentional". Not negligent as I first thought after reading the explanations of each category). With low impact and and body contact it's still 4 activation points, which is a reprimand even with Fev's extra 20% loading (as long as they don't make it "medium" impact).This cracked me up... you mean it has to be on purpose for the tribunal to class it as intentional?

Seems the actual carryover points expired 2 games ago.I think it will be at the lower end - reprimand or 1 week. Probably depend on how many carryover pts involved. If it is 1 week, it won't be the end of the world.
