It's all who you are lets be serious - Buddy lifts his elbow and hits a guy in the head every other week, and when was the last time he was suspended?
AFL want the best players playing the game each week. Simple. MRP will never be consistent.

3 - 4. Early plea down to 2-3.
Slipping off his shoulder makes me lean towards 2.
Case closed.

To me i didn't think Houli looked at him and deliberately smacked him in the face - looked like he swung his arm around to obviously hit the player across the arm, it slid off the shoulder into the jaw.
Also they said it was an elbow but it looks more like fist/forearm to me.
Maybe if the Carlton player wasn't trying to rape him off the ball he wouldn't have swung back like that.. but if he collects him a couple inches lower then the player has a dead arm and nothing more is said.
Not just you mate, and I'm sure if Houli was a white Christian a lot more people would agree with us.

Not even close.
Houli I believe had zero intent.

Posted: Wed Jun 28, 2017 1:10 pmTHE AFL will appeal what it believes is a “manifestly inadequate” two-game ban handed to Richmond defender Bachar Houli by the tribunal on Tuesday night.
In an unprecedented action, the AFL notified both the appeals board and the Tigers just before midday on Wednesday to confirm it would appeal the decision on Thursday evening.
“The AFL has determined it will appeal the Bachar Houli tribunal case on the grounds that the sanction was manifestly inadequate,” the AFL said in a statement.
It is the first time the AFL has ever appealed a tribunal decision.
Houli was suspended for two games after an incident that saw Carlton’s Jed Lamb knocked out during Sunday’s clash at the MCG.
He had been referred directly to the tribunal by the MRP, where he was found guilty of intentionally striking the Blues forward.
