Grover, Ling offered reprimands



22nd June 2009, 14:00 WST
Fremantle defender Antoni Grover and Geelong tagger Cameron Ling and have both been charged with striking following yesterday's clash at Subiaco.

However, the lower grading of their charges means they can both accept reprimands.

Ling has been charged with striking Dockers’ youngster Nick Suban and Grover with hitting the Cats’ Steve Johnson.

Grover will risk a one-match suspension if he fights his charge, but Ling cannot be handed more than a reprimand because of a penalty reduction for a five-year clean record.

The only other charge from the game was against Fremantle’s Matthew De Boer, who faces a $1950 fine for negligently making contact with an umpire.
However, Essendon star Mark McVeigh could miss Friday night’s crucial AFL clash with Carlton after being handed a one-match suspension for striking.

That'd be the lads whole match day payment yeah?

Glad that Grover got off, but what about the hit on him that caused him to retaliate?

What happened with Dodd as a rookie?
Did he have to pass the collection plate around?

Poor bloke will end up on Centrelink this week.

can the club foot the bill? or does that come under the salary cap?

I think they check for that sort of thing, but I'm sure there is someone we know at Carlton that can help us out.

he was reported for wrestling and fined, i cant remember what happened exactly, he either had his mates help him pay, or he took a week suspension, but i know that the fine was worth more than the match payment

lol, training bag in one hand, centrelink cheque in the other

i dont think they can, not because of salary cap issue, i think there is a rule that a personal fine has to be paid by the individual. a bit like if you are on a minesite and the mines inspector catches you not wearing a seatbelt and fines you $5000, work cant pay that for you (not that they probably would).... but that is the best way i can explain it

Man, he's becoming a lawyer. If he's worth his salt, he'd be doing that shit anyway.
