Looking at that replay it was clearly deliberate. Clearly extended his leg to increase the impact. And it sure looked like he was looking at Dahls face. No argument it was highcontact.

And with his record? Has he been suspended twice this year already? What a frickin nimrod. Clearly he's not a bright boy

You can't see properly i think

Should have been Front on contact against dahlhaus. no eyes for the ball was never going get a spoil in. Greene had his eyes on the ball the entire time and dahlhaus is a dumb campaigner with no spatial awareness
it wasnt a mark it was a hand ball receive

looked ugly but was legal
 
It happens almost any time a player is sitting under a ball and an opponent is running back with the flight.
Normally ends up being around thigh height though (unless it's Jarrad Waite doing it).
Never copped a boot doing that. More a knee. This was in a ruck contest and he ran jumped and basicallyfly kicked me in the chest as I tapped the ball. Only had eyes for me (so completely different to this)
 
The people that say it is intentional, what video are you watching?

Clearly has eyes for the ball and extends his leg out and Dahlhaus runs into his foot.

This is nothing more than an accident.

Put your pitchforks away
You never see players raise a foot to the face to receive a handball, even if he didn't have scum actions in mind it's still a dangerous thing to do

Protect himself from what? Being tackled? Feeble rationale.

The fact that Green had to reach that far in the first place to make contact says there was nothing to protect himself from. Dalhous was miles away and Greene was at full stretch to deliberatly maim him with his stops.

BS Dahl was trying to pull up
Of course he was, doesn't mean he can stop momentum on a dime.

His momentum carried him into the boot, Greene didn't karate kick him or aim for his face, just stuck out the boot to protect the area and unfortunately an opponent ran into it.

It's a case of shit happens in footy.
 
It wasn't a kick, but more a fend-off. If a fend-off goes high, it's a free against. Usually, fend-offs are done with a palm, so there is little chance of causing injury and a free kick is sufficient.

That said, if you stick your elbow up to fend off a player and he runs into it, you'll get suspended. Even if you are stationary and the player runs into it, you'll be in trouble. Same with a fist. You stick your fist up - not strike - but put it in a position where a player runs onto it and breaks his nose, it will be a suspension.

I don't see why this should be any different. It might not be intentional, but it is certainly careless.
 
No other player would do it. He's a ridiculously talented thug. What's farked is what this thug does on the field week in week out. I always respected Leon but clearly he's unable to control this piece of human garbage, and unwilling to drop him or pull him off the field.
Lol get over yourself, you are just a sore loser
 
It's more dangerous than a fend off with the elbow of forearm, and it is clearly a fend off with studs up. It looks like he goes for the chest and instead gets the face. Hard to argue there wasn't an intent to fend off as he is facing him and extends the leg at him with Dalhaus having minimal time to react to it as well.

Definite free kick though..you can't take someone high with a fend off in general play, esp not studs up.

Re Mrp, if it's argued as a fend off, even careless, medium impact with high contact is 2 weeks? (Please correct if wrong)
