According to the AFL, they have appealed two other Tribunal decisions which involved contact with umpires. One against Toby Greene and one against one of the Curnows.

Amazing how they often seem to want to appeal against Richmond verdicts though isn’t it?

Vile organisation.

Sheerin gave a perfectly reasonable explanation for what happened. It is reasonable for her to expect her opponent is balanced enough to provide enough resistance to not fall into the umpire. It is not her fault the girl collapsed like a deck of cards with minimal force.

It is an incident you don't want to see happen, but the opponent chose to put herself between Sheerin & the umpire in a context where she has to expect Sheerin will try to push her out of the way. It is illegal to hold or grab her. So Sheerin can only push her in one direction from there. Or choose not to contest, which is clearly out of the question.

It is the opponent who made contact with the umpire and the opponent who chose to place herself in a position where this was a likely outcome. If you also look at number 9's positioning against Mckezie it is not right. She is facing away from the ball with the sole itetio of blocking Mckenzie's path to the ball. Sheerin's opponent is positioned with the exact same thing in mind.

I would think the Essendon player is at least equally culpable in the umpire contact here.

I hope Sheerin head butts lozza not-so-keane to sleep, a nice big coma falcon, 12 weeks
