Jeez, focussing on the statement ''Greene chose to raise his elbow''. You cannot move your entire ******* arm without moving your elbow - it's simple physics. So a choice not to raise an elbow is a choice do nothing at all to defend against the tackle - while half crouched, having just gathered the ball. Sheesh.

Not looking good for Tobes, these tribunal members seem as fixated as the first. Well chosen by AFL presumably!

Can we not show previous cases from this year ?

Yeah, presumably, don't know why we haven't, and pointed to those deliberate elbows and ask why an accident is worth more than a deliberate action.

Pretty torn. If he plays then Richmond probably miss finals. If he misses we are a chance.

Hoping reason prevails though. He should get a medal for elbowing Danger.

Yeah, seems to have been a pretty narrow argument from us - not sure that was the best approach. May have been effective if it really hit the point with a sympathetic jury: don't think either of those attributes was the case.

Not confident with this as it skips the (to me) obvious arguments for appeal

Teams will likely be announced before the verdict

What are the chances Whately will say something like "It was the right call" on AFL360?
He probably picked Dangerfield up from the Hospital

Just when you think it’s not possible, VFL HQ integrity sinks to a new all-time low - from the gutter into the sewer.

I would expect this VFL outrage to strongly galvanise our team for Friday night.
