Reduced to a fine...so there you go.
Free to play.
What! The AFL are not going to reem Carlton and make an example of one of our players.
Gee they are getting soft.  :o

Great result and the right result but surely Christian has to go.  You can’t continually get things wrong and just keep on trucking.

I think that most supporters agree that ‘the head is sacrosanct’ but just want consistency from the MRO.  The same goes for umpire contact; it’s got to be a fine at the very minimum and a suspension if it’s deliberate or malicious. 

It's still the Gulf of Mexico, Don Old!

It's as random as a poorly maintained chook wheel.

I'm glad the club is maintaining some consistency. I hope big H has a blinder.

Soligo grabbed an umpire, how's he get away with that?  Toby Greene says hi.

Answer: he's not Toby Green.

Totally farcical flawed system making a fool of itself.

Well there you go, I thought they wouldn't downgrade it to Low, obviously I was completely wrong. Worth contesting in the end.

Yep, reducing the impact to low was the obvious result.
'Obvious' and 'MRP decisions' do not go hand in hand.

Personally, i can't stand the outcome based 'logic' used in the decision making.

If he hit Justin Koschitske, he would've been given life without parole for the same action.

Its either allowed or its not.

If it came out now that Sheezel had some delayed concussion, or a small fracture in the jaw, do the AFL get to appeal the MRP decision based on the outcome being harsher than first thought?

From a pure action point of view, it was ugly and not something you want to be showing the kiddies out there.

So the two sling tackles have suspensions attached - good.  The knee in the ruck was the same result as TDK - good (at least being consistent)

Jeremy Cameron - nothing for smashing an umpire? Not good (or I just can't find it).

Jeremy's collision with the umpire was 100% accidental, and he borderline gave the bloke a hug afterwards.

I'd say that close to all collisions with an umpire are accidental. Far easier and more excusable to make a mistake while navigating a stoppage and 10+ players than to recklessly strut around the ground grandstanding to the crowd and not having the smarts to see there is an umpire in the way. Based on careless and force I'd say he should have got weeks. What if he had actually injured the umpire...
Sure it looked a bit comical and they were 'mates' afterwards but too bad I say.

Intent is important.

Toby Greene's umpire contact was contemptuous and he wanted to hurt him.

Jezza didn't.

There is the clear distinction. The outcome of an action isn't the defining factor of anything but how it happens is extremely important.

I've seen blokes tunnelling in a marking contest and play waived on.

Zurhaar on the weekend twice did the high fend off which is becoming a theme.  Ed curnow needed a steel plate fitted to his larynx after an incident like that.  This is the crap they need to stamp out.  Not an over zealous celebration or lazy arms causing a collision.

Plowman is an emergency after his excellent game in the twos.  I reckon he’ll be the sub.
