Seriously the AFL and it’s rules are a week to week business - no other sport in the world make changes literally on the fly and on gut feel!

Laughable!

Wow

 

[swoop42]

What a disgrace and yet I bet none of us are surprised.

The AFL is corrupt.

 

[ipswichpies]

It is no wonder they think they can smack Ginnivan around the head with impunity this beggars belief,I thought they were bad under fat Andy but they have become worse,no longer just incompetent but bent with it.

 

[nahnah]

That is a crazy precedent being set by the AFL (not that they have any consistency)

 

[hellfire]

Staggering, really.

 

[Jen2310]

wow

 

[Exambolor]

Bruzzy got two weeks for a similar act yet Cripps gets away with it… unbelievable

 

[MagpieJoel]

What a ******* joke. Kangaroo court bullshit.

Is it too late to appeal the Jason Cloke and Anthony Rocca decisions?

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Rioli and Cripps intentionally clean blokes up. All clear.

Maynard attempts a legitimate spoil and comes in a bit late.

2 weeks

Joke of an organisation.

Have fun being bankrupted by concussion lawsuits in the future idiots.

 

[Jafo]

What a Rort!

 

[anshell]

Unbelievable.Could you see a Collingwood player getting away with that if he did exactly the same thing?No way.

 

[Jafo]

Too bad Lions can’t appeal the appeal.

 

[MyManLynch]

Embarrassing for the AFL.

It's unbelievable how corrupt they are

No but at the tribunal you can cite precedent these days. Now anyone who says they were contesting the ball, even if the video evidence does nothing to support the claim, can bump a bloke in the head with their hip/elbow and knock them out. Cripps did.

 

[No SPIN]

Bring on a suit - can’t wait for player to sue the AFL, using this incident as proof of negligence, in providing a “ safe work environment”.

The AFL is playing with fire.

 

[BigVic]

What a disgrace

Appalling decision by the AFL. So any player that claims to be contesting the ball and injures an opponent it’s play on. The consequences of this decision are horrific. Thuggish behaviour is being rewarded. Every team now will appeal these decisions. Lots of long Thursday nights ahead of us folks.

Scum supporters crowing how they will now beat us and Melbourne because of this decision.

My hatred for this pathetic club has risen to new levels.

It really is remarkable, disgraceful. Will make it all the more exceptional when we knock them out of finals contention round 23

 

[60 Yards Out]

Christian and the Tribunal members should quit. Position untenable.

This one was worse than the Maynard incident.
Maynard was clearly going for the ball — in fact, made contact with the ball before anything else. It was a glancing blow to the head and I think the concussion came from the landing.
Cripps’ action was a bump, despite the lies at the Appeal, and directly caused the concussion. It’s utterly obvious.
People scoff at claims of corruption in the AFL. What, then, do they put this decision down to?

Carlton board celebrating like they have won a final. Probably as close as they will get.
