MRP / Trib. Tom Stewart - Result 4 week match suspension

[Boxhead_31]

Who is to say he didn't do it intentionally? When you go for that type of 1990's hip & Shoulder bump, the scope for exactly where it hits is not the equation for intentional, its intentional the moment he goes for the man and not the ball.

Ummm the MRO and the Tribunal

Do we know what school he went to yet?

Waiting to hear from school principle from 12 years ago to give a reference

Ummm the MRO and the Tribunal

I mean, not the greatest endorsement, is it?

 

[STPer18]

Now what? How anticlimactic.

 

[DT_35]

4 lol should be 5-6. No doubt if it were a lesser known player they get 5-6 weeks.

 

[Tackle Bag]

Right outcome. Heavy enough to ram home the AFLs message re head contact. It was silly. He copped his whack. He gets back with plenty of time before finals.

So Greene gets 6 for umpire contact.
Even though the umpire wasn’t carried off the field, didn’t suffer a concussion, was available for selection the next week.
If what Stewart did was not worthy of an equal suspension then the AFL have truly lost the plot.

Threads about Tom Stewart champ.
Houli has nothing to do with it, was a horrible brain fart as well and he was punished accordingly

Funny reading the Richmond fans take on it though.

MRP / Trib. - Bachar Houli Tribunal Appeal thread (appeal upheld 4 weeks)

This thread will be heavily moderated today and tonight, as always we encourage respectful discussion but any trolling or attempts at trolling will be dealt with harshly, don't say we didn't warn you. Bachar Houli was originally assessed a 2 match suspension which was subsequently appealed by...

They’ve thrown out a lot of the same logic they were using for Houli.

If you can't tell the difference between a football action and touching an umpire I feel sorry for you

Spoke well after. Mentioned the effects on Prestia constantly but still probably not enough for some Richmond posters

If you drill down about the issue we as Richmond fans have with it, it's not what Stewart says or doesn't say. It's not even what Geelong say or doesn't say.

It's the way the media has portayed it. Our gripe is more with the media than anyone else in this specific issue.

4 weeks is fair, now let’s just move on and get on with it.
No more unhinged takes from either side would be nice

 

[Pablito]

When does Albanese’s character reference get read out?

Don't you mean Waleed Aly?

 

[Micksy]

Take it. Move on.

I wonder what Tom Lynch would have got 7-8?

 

[STPer18]

I wonder what Tom Lynch would have got 7-8?

4.

 

[Cdog71]

4.

Rubbish

 

[hawkman]

Given he got 0 for an elbow on Impey maybe none

 

[Wojcinski]

I wonder what Tom Lynch would have got 7-8?

Lynch would have got let off with a nice little kiss on the pecker for good luck

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

4 weeks is a fair outcome for 4 points

 

[STPer18]

Rubbish

Let me guess, Richmond are hard done by at the tribunal/MRO?

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

I guess a week or two too many, oh well. s**t happens.

 

[Pablito]

I wonder what Tom Lynch would have got 7-8?

2 weeks

 

[Acinath]

I wonder what Tom Lynch would have got 7-8?

Is this necessary?
