i thought the Rioli bump was worse and more intentional than Cripps' bump.
Didn't think Rioli should have gotten off but if you compare the two cases Cripps should also get off.

Rioli's was in a marking contest and Rowell played out the game.

Knock a bloke out and you're going to miss a few weeks, unless your name is Dangerfield/Cotchin.

Last time I looked RICH punched the ball into the air, Ah Chee put his arms up to take possession, while Cripps jumped into the air, turned side on and cracked his elbow into Ah Chee's head. Do I have to send you a link to the footage?

Maybe. But how about sending a link to the last footage of the Pies grand final win. That would be cool also and maybe throw in a Nathan Buckley highlights video as well from his playing and coaching achievements. At least then I can sleep well seeing such great levels of awesome.

What argument are Carlton going to use in the second appeal that they didn't use in the first appeal? They will need to try something different or it will just be the same result.

Umpires and the AFL are always wrong as you are well familiar with?? 🤣🤣

Rioli lined him up and was extremely lucky Rowell somehow wasn't concussed.

How many times have you seen someone bracing to bump, with their other arm flapping around doing nothing?

When they jump two feet into the air to do it!

His right arm wasn't extended, it was bracing for a bump. Fact.

The left arm was flapping around keeping his balance as he jumped into the air to clean up a shorter opponent.

He isn't getting off because he ran through a bloke and caught him high concussing him. If it was round 2 you wouldn't care so much.
 
I don't think there's any doubt he was contesting the ball, but imo he approached the contest recklessly in order to make a physical statement and fire his team up. The AFL can't afford to have these incidents if they want to exist in the long term and not be brought down by CTE lawsuits.

cripps is captain,a good one , finally getting rid of murphy (little Smurf) was the best thing your team has done in a decade. He does however get dragged into too many onfield scraps, test of strengths, must have the last push in a push & shove. His push and shove with the meatball was embarrassing. He was no chance to win the ball in this latest clash with Archee, he lined him up, left the ground , goodnight Archee, enjoy your fortnight off Crippa.

He gets targeted. Has had half the team hanging off him in past years.

Yes his mark was mis-timed. But that's what he was going for. A mark.

Every other mis-timed mark just results in the opposition winning the ball. The result of this one was a knock to the head and two weeks off.

s**t happens.

A mark? Didn't know you could mark a punched ball

Have any of you Carlton people actually seen the footage?

Shut the game down now then and let’s all sing Kum by yah with the Greenies around a camp fire fired by Tofu and whatever the hell else does not offend them! 🤣

Duty of care. One going for the footy with eyes on it, one late to the footy with options to avoid a bump due to being late to the contest, but opts to bump in the head causing a player to vomit and have concussion.

See if you can find one example where a player is bracing to bump, either on the ground or in the air, where his opposing arm / hand is in that position (palm up with extended fingers).

That is arguing a nothing point. Cripps contests an in dispute free ball wether that comes off a boot or hand is irrelevant. Just more Grey area the AFL has to manipulate an outcome with.

He gets targeted because he enjoys the physicality of football, he goes out of his way to engage in these push and shoves because no one else from your side will do it. It’s embarrassing when silvagni does it but more credible when cripps does it because he is a genuine hard nut. He flew the flag on Sunday and now he has a fortnight off. Yes, s**t happens.

So it's gone from a hospital handball to a mark to a disputed ball, at least we got there in the end

Still doesn't excuse the turning side on and the elbow to the head from a height

Even Richo thinks he's guilty, case closed

Watched it many times. 50/50 contest. Cripps going for the ball.

Your honesty is good to see but a shame many others just want to see blokes rubbed out and take heart in the demise of other teams to suit their own agenda.

Personal shenanigans and one’s own agendas rule the internet world these days.
