Whelan gets off. How is this fair considering Stokes got 4 weeks?

The Whelan and Stokes incidents were totally different.It's Whelan and Kelly that were similar.

BTW,don't blame the tribunal.It's the Match Review Panel that hand out the suspensions.
 
No real similarities between the three incidents in my opinion, Whelans was merely a block and an accidental clash of heads that caused the injury whereas Stokes was a head on bump [ stiff to get the penalty he did though ] and Kelly's was a late hit that could have been avoided.

Do agree that the whole tribunal system is a farce but I think they got this one [ Whelan ] correct.

I think the tribunal got it right on this one - there was nothing in Wheelan's bump IMO. Though I don't think Stokes should have got the extra week after appealing.
 
Whelan hit Ball high with his own head obviously accidental while Stokes and Kelly hit their opponent with their body.

I was puzzled that Stokes got more weeks than Kelly
