Shit rule, but at least they are consistent



55 second mark in "Stevo's Sting"

Consistent. Yes, at being inconsistent.

Stiff to lose a potential Brownlow for that. Given it has only been a rule, and with all the new interpretations and ways the MRP now work, the eligibility for the Brownlow would have to be looked at. That tackle doesnt get cited 5+ years ago, plain and simple. You see incidents of by-gone eras where players get away with assault, not cited at all, yet now a strong tackle results in a weeks suspension.. Makes you wonder how many more ineligible players we would have seen had these rules been around as interpreted this way in the 70s/80s/90s

Good see Franklin get let off again. A fine for pushing Hodge in the head but nothing for a late swinging forearm to the neck.

Can't wait for the 6 part expose into George Dangerfield's sleep patterns during Patty's suspension.

Why do they even bother reporting him anymore?
We all know he could headbutt a umpire and the umpire would get a life ban

For not demonstrating sufficient intent to avoid contact?

Hodgey would be embarrassed if Bud got rubbed out for that!

As I said before if this wasn't Dangerfield this would be a non issue... players have got more for doing less.
