According to AFL regulations, a successful appeal must satisfy one of the following:
1. Error of law that has a material impact on the decision of the Tribunal.
2. That the decision was so unreasonable that no Tribunal acting reasonably could have come to that decision having regard to the evidence before it.
3. Classification of offence manifestly excessive or inadequate.
4. Sanction imposed manifestly excessive or inadequate.
Aren't 3 & 4 considered downgrades?
