Herald Sun:
5. DON’T CHANGE THE BROWNLOW

Isaac Heeney’s suspension put everyone in a fizz. AFL coaching great Mick Malthouse was right when he told the ABC on Saturday: “It (the Brownlow eligibility rules) should not be touched under any circumstance and it (should stay) as it is … Don’t dabble with the rules of history.” The issue is how do we deal with careless acts – which once commanded a free kick – which now incur a suspension. My mate Brendon had a worthy idea. It’s a demerit point for acts considered careless and not intentional, or of a low impact, and if a player accumulated three demerit points then the player was suspended for one game. It would mean acts such as Heeney’s accidental swipe would not immediately incur a suspension. It would also mean, for example, that Zak Butters

, who has been fined several times this season for lashing out at opponents, would be ineligible because he would’ve accumulated three demerit points. It’s an idea which keeps the Brownlow Medal integrity intact and gives some leniency to players.
