Unfortunately, they have remained consistent with suspensions for head high hits

What's not consistent is the penalties they are dishing out, moreso only a week difference between the Kosi and Acres/McKay hits

I'd fight it, but think it will stand

Harry should have changed his approach before contact

I agree.

They are trying to eliminate head high hits.

Part of their response to the concussion lawsuit.

Harry suspension will stand, even if it's not technically correct

Ok. Fine. So does Lynch get a week? Or two?

Let's do it another way

If Larkey committed the same act on young Hollands, what outcome would you want?

 

[Kernafides]

The real stupid thing is no one gets done for a fend off to the face as it's deemed a footy act. Ask ed if it has the potential to cause harm

 

[RAPPA]

No surprises tbh. Was pretty dumb by H.

 

[Jimmyonesix]

Harry Clumsy stupid thing to do -- arm barred him to the head- slowing down or not no excuse cop the week ..
lynch sure get 2 week never looked like attempting the marking contest on side note he does this crap a lot around marking contests - it a bit like Cameron hit on Andrew's just not as fast ..

The high fend seems to be the last viable option to knock blokes out or do damage and get away with it

A free kick. Why would we want any player we don't hate suspended for an incident where Hollands got straight up with no damage?

Probably 1, wasn't in line for the mark and cannoned into Keath to clear a path. High impact, careless, body contact.

 

[Love the Drake]

How on earth is it medium impact? What is the AFL tribunal definition of medium impact? Sheezel got straight up and played out the game with no injury..

It’s called making it up to suit the weeks outcome they are after

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

Harry had a bit of a brain fade, but medium impact seems a tad harsh given the other bloke wasn't even hurt.

Looks like another tribunal visit thanks to that steaming pile of dogshit. And I don't want that bloke who defended Acres either who was all over the shop with his arguments - give me that QC who got Cripps off.

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

Good man, Korn

Larkey I hate, nasty piece of work

Hope all the twitter peeps are going bezerk at Christian

 

[Blue_Fusion]

High fend off allowed though?

I suppose protect the head.. unless you have the ball in your hand, then you can go nuts...

Bet the minute Dusty retires the AFL will start suspending high fend offs gone wrong.

 

[Gez1969]

Appeal this 100% if this is anything other than minor I’d be surprised and initial contact upper arm not head.
I think H gets off.

 

[F_therest]

GAGF MR NO IDEA MRO

What a joke!

Surely with the already low impact, the fact he hits his shoulder first and slides up to the head will get him off? Can't be intentional.

Ballard got off for his high hit off the ball so who knows

 

[Benaly28]

So a crows player touched an umpire…..let’s see how that plays out.

It was a really weird one, hey. Almost like he had a complete brain-fade and thought it was an oppo player, gave him a little "how do you like that" shove.

That's about the only reason I could think of leading him to make contact the way he did. Looked really bad though, demonstrative/forceful/deliberate. Probably send him straight to the tribunal and he'll get offered 3 weeks. Might be able to argue down to 2 if they can convince the panel he only saw someone out the corner of his eye and thought it was a player, pair it with a really contrite public apology and hope for the best.
