Pushed in the side and somehow flew forward. He knew he was out of position and took a huge dive. Should be a fine, but given who he is, wont be.
Explain the ridiculous free kick Dusty got. The umpire clearly just assumed that if he was outmuscled it must have been due to cheating.

Fine him 1500.
Probably the worst dive I have seen. Not only did he fool the umpire, but it cost a shot at goal for the opposition. (His team also took it down and scored from it, so 2 goal turn around).
I believe a fine is not enough.
Should he get suspended? Discuss...

Suspended hopefully. Someone of his skill doing something so disgraceful needs a precedent set.
Doubt the golden boy will get suspended.
I said fine and warn first offenders. Such as Rance's and Sinclair's. But only do it for clear cut ones such as those.
But Jehovah's never lie?

There’s already a thread on this - quit deflecting from the abysmal effort put in by your garbage club
One hand in his right side, the other in his back. He was pushed - how hard is debatable - but not hard enough to produce the result.
Edit: Have had a closer look, agree that the left arm appears to push Rance in the side. In any case, it should've been a free against McKernan for pushing his opponent out of the contest when the ball wasn't within five metres. But that's not what the umpire said.
But the funniest thing is the vitriol. Rance, the perfect specimen of mankind, has you lot properly stirred up!

Added mayo to a push. Not the worst thing a player has done, but still not a good look.
Fine him, but if you don’t push a bloke with an obvious two handed two motion action - he has nothing to accentuate with the mayo.

He’s too popular to be penalised for breaking the rules. Held to different standards than others

I called Daniher out as soon as I noticed his antics 3 seasons ago, and I always called Lloyd out.
Look past your colours and stop being one eyed. Rance is a superstar, but is also a s**t bloke who flops to the ground to get a cheat free.

He'll have to cop a fine after Sinclair got one
Very similar theatrical dives
Both deserving of fines
Probably limited edition sauce, but the unfortunate thing for opposition supporters baying for blood is there was still a “push” action. So it wasn’t a blatant dive, just exaggeration
Again, I reckon it’s a s**t look - but it’s hard to not call it a free in the moment of the game. Unless we do video reviews of free kicks umpire sees that as a free any day of the week.
Doesnt matter, theres been no rules for it prior. Bring out a rule in the off season, keep it open and transparent.
Rance, Sinclair or any other player, you simply cant suspend them for it mid season without any indication that you are going to do that. Rance made the most of very minimal contact. Its a horrible look but he hasnt broken any rules that justify a suspension.
However, what the rule shoul be is from now on AFL will do this. They need to announce a rule before they can enforce it.

Give players a fine first time,one week second time
make it easier for the umps
Comparing the Sinclair to Rance dive...
Rance over cooked his performance
Sinclair went down in a natural looking motion but the ump was close enough to see contact was minimal compared to outcome

Were you equally indignant when the real golden boy Goodesy staged? He was one of the best ever!
Had the MRP cited Adam there would have been calls of racism.
