MRP / Trib. Tom Stewart bump on Prestia - 4 weeks to freshen up

[Pure_Ownage]

It's about time players realized that tackling a player without the ball is the far preferred option these days. It's 1 free kick in a game with 40 of them, versus 4 weeks or more off. Simple decision, and the same thought process Danger should have had last year as well.

Agreed and if they arent being coached that way they should be.

Tom Browne going with the following to be announced from the MRO

• careless rather than intentional
• severe, meaning straight to the tribunal
• AFL to push for/recommend a suspension of 4 to 5 weeks

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Any red card rule has to have video review, like other sports, and in Aussie rules should be one down on the interchange not 17 on field.

Ask soccer fans what they think of VAR reviews before proposing that

Fair.

 

[Warhorse]

Not even that bad. Can't help that Prestia has a brittle glass jaw. 3 weeks

And it’s hardly ever used too

 

[year of the cat]

Of course, Kane “I’ve got to find someone to demonize this week” Cornes, has suggested that Stewart should have been sent off.

Sorry I don’t think it’s severe
That’s for the blatant trauma acts
Locket caven
Solomon Ling
Etc

Can see them making an example but that’s the incorrect grading

 

[cats_09]

Not really surprising

Guaranteed 3 weeks right?

Feel like 4 is the number.

AFL will push for 4 or 5 - hopefully the those on the tribunal are having a good day and go with 4

Dangers was worse and only got 3...

 

[thecatattack]

Going to miss at least North, Demons and Carlton yikes

Probably Port in Port too

Have thought 4 since it happened, and this seems most likely now, IMO

So intentional not careless?

Not really surprising

Afl website says it was classified as intentional.
I know I have my Geelong googles on but * me this could result in us hurting our top 4 chances.
Henry goes back, Rohan comes in
Thank god we have a bye this week
So really should only miss 3 games

I am a soccer fan.

Better than AFL review system lol

 

[catempire]

Not a fan of the severe grading. That’s the same as broken jaw, cheekbone, etc.

But given the scrutiny it’s not surprising.

I’d say still a 50:50 chance of being three rather than four.

[Tigerandy63]

Is this the first time Stewart been to the tribunal ?.

David King the flog calling for a 6 week suspension.

Tigers supporters seem to have a short memory, Cotchin's bump on Dylan Shiel.

I encourage you to have another look at Cotchins bump on Shiel. Cotchin had eyes on the ball & won the ball. Cotchins shoulder made incidental contact to Shiel. The important element there was where Cotchins eyes were and his intent. Stewart never had eyes for the ball. There is no comparison.

Won the ball??? Shiel literally had it until Cotchin hit him lmfao

Nobody cares about your opinion. Go sulk on the degenerate board.
