Jeremy Cameron elbow on Harris Andrews

[HTPunter]

Don't think it will be graded intentional. Think it's reckless, high contact, severe impact

What does that equate to?

Tribunal

 

[Donakebab]

Cameron is an utter piece of filth. Straight to the tribunal, should be looking at 6+ weeks.

 

[Smartest Brain]

Just can’t allow that in AFL.
4 weeks sends a shithouse message. 6 minimum and no one will be doing it again.

If that’s not 6 weeks anymore, then nothing outside of a Barry Hall king hit is.

Accidental contact, no alternative, no suspension.

 

[Wosh]

Fox footy predicting 4 - 6 and the end of the Giants season, without Cameron wont have enough goal kickers.

 

[Belnakor]

6-8 weeks. Thug act.

 

[pulpdriver]

Don't think it will be graded intentional. Think it's reckless, high contact, severe impact

What does that equate to?

Anything deemed severe impact, regardless of being graded careless, is minimum 3 weeks. He raised that forearm though and they've shown zero tolerance for that s**t in the past. It'll be 4-6.

 

[gullie man]

Bit of over reacting here, no where near as bad as Bugg. 4 weeks max, it was un intentional, was bracing for contact but very careless

 

[schmuttt]

5 weeks I think. Geez Cameron is stupid, would have thought he learnt from last time. I'd be furious if a Melbourne player was as stupid as Cameron (Or Bugg) was here, you cost your team so much by getting rubbed out.

 

[bigfarter]

Accidental contact, no alternative, no suspension.

Haha, if you go into Tribunal night expecting that, I fear you're going to be very disappointed.

 

[Dangerousfield]

Not looking at the ball, could have been brave and taken it on the body but CHOOSES to raise his elbow which becomes a weapon at the speed of the collision. Andrews knocked out cold mid air and falls to ground hitting head again.

Cameron has priors, deliberate dog act with the most dangerous body part at huge impact to the sacrosanct head, can't be less than 6 weeks or the AFL aren't serious about protecting the head.

It is their own team though so may go soft. Anything less than 6 weeks will prove it.

 

[Buzzasto DaSilva]

Four weeks minimum. Even if he's charged with 2, I'd hope the club sit him out for a month. Enough is enough.

 

[Donakebab]

Grow a brain mate, you're showing yourself to be a d i c k head!

Just ignore Dumbest Rock, there's not much rattling around in there.

 

[flamethrower]

throw the book at him.

Reminds me of this:

First thing I thought of too - Plugger got 8 weeks for his hit on Caven.

Cameron should get the same. And should have been sent off!!!!!

To intentionally elbow the oppo's best defender to the head, an action that is always going to force that player out of the game, should result in the offender being disqualified from participating for the rest of the game as well.

 

[Ron The Bear]

Didn't see much difference to this one that only earned Membrey two weeks.



If anything, Cameron was less culpable as he was looking away and it was sheer bad luck that he caught Andrews on the point of the chin and KO'd him. Reckless rather than intentional.

Andrews being something of a media favourite seems to have bestowed the Cameron incident with a touch of hysteria.

 

[telsor]

4+ for sure.

I wondered why Giants fans weren’t in this thread defending it, but then I remembered the obvious.

Maybe they're both still watching the game?

 

[Strange Cat]

Lol GWS board thinking it’ll be just two weeks

Delusional

It’ll be anywhere between 4-6 weeks easily

MRO is heavily (overly IMHO) focused on results though, and Grimes got up and took his kick (even if he looked wonky).

 

[romeohwho]

3-4 weeks.

 

[radiojake]

Dwayne Russell immediately after the impact "HARRIS ANDREWS HAS .... NOT .... MOVED!!!!"

Even if he wasn't knocked out and got back on his feet he would have already said it too early

what a *stick

 

[Ron]

This is why we need a red card system. The Lions lose their best defender for the match, and Cameron can now run around and continue to play.

Should have been a red card, sent off and a six week suspension.

Good comparison, will cop another week as Andrews was carried off, maybe two for priors.

It was just as brutal. Extremely lucky for Membrey that he hit a bloke with Grimes' constitution.

 

[Tiger Toffee]

I have an idea on how suspensions should be dealt out, why should the upcoming teams be rewarded for a players indiscretion and not the team the player committed the act against......so here goes.

Suspension as normal and then +1 which is for when said player comes up against said club again.

ie: Cameron misses the next 6 games and then also misses the next time GWS play Brisbane.

Bit awkward. Knock a bloke out in Round 1, serve your handful of weeks, play the rest of the season and possibly miss a GF when perfectly fit.

Someone is salty that Rance will only win AA by default and reputation this year.
