Greene's One Week - Mabo, the Vibe, Justice

Fantastic news. Other than the fact he's a dirty scumbag of a player, he's got such a punchable head I was worried Maynard would be reported for doing just that.

Win - win!!!

 

[Prestigerrycomo]

Watch the footage again, he turns his head like a little snot nose school kid looking out for the teacher while he gets stuck into a defenceless player

 

[Gone Critical]

They would have nothing new to argue.

As I understand they cant present any new evidence anyway. Only arguments are a mistake in law was made or no reasonable tribunal could have ever made this decision. No grounds here you would think for those

 

[Markfs]

There's still an appeal process later in the week. I feel that we will see the smirk during the press conference

 

[PepperFace]

Can Maynard appeal this suspension?

Mistake in law? They wernt arguing for or against any laws tonight.

Hard to see how they can argue that.

Imagine thinking that everyone who disagrees with you is a troll. Greene was charged with touching Neale's eye. Neale said that Greene did not touch his eye.

He should not be suspended.

Touching Neale’s eye “region”.

Read again... he was charged with “unreasonable or unnecessary contact to the eye region' of Neale”.

You’re normally a good poster but check the facts and vision before coming in here without doing either.

From a contest point of view I don't care a toss if he plays or not, sure it probably makes the task a little easier for us but its a game of inches, still nothing in it.

I am however, delighted he got rubbed out because he is a disgraceful footballer, abominable for the way he behaves on the field, regularly, (almost weekly) commiting dog acts, cheap shots and gutless snipes on players either off the ball when they are not expecting it or when they are unable to defend themsleves in the contest. He should be forced to reform or just get run out of the game. We have already seen a 'Toby Greene' rule brought into the game just to stop him from seriously injuring players by kicking them, yet another one of his long list of dog acts. He is just a filthy head case that does not deserve the privilege of playing our great game.

Here we go... come and tell us how awful we are as supporters

I wouldn’t want to stop the circle jerk you are involved in atm mate.......enjoy.

We’re in a Prelim and this is the number one thread.......that’s f kn sad IMO.

I'm pretty sure the 'nose bone is connected to the eye bone...' That's the song anyway.

Exactly
And other ground is manifestly excessive. Little chance of getting that up for a one weeker and eye damage risk

Rubbish - he was charged with raking his fingers across Neale's eye area and clearly did that. If he makes contact with the actual eye then he's out for a month minimum as he would have done some real damage.

It's a dirty act, he knew exactly what he was doing in a situation he didn't even need to jump into, just as he knew exactly what he was doing with Bontempelli last week, and now he has gotten a week off for it.

Herald Sun headline, 'Greene ban most unjust suspension in AFL history'.

 

[Black_White]

Riewoldt supporting the suspension an 360.

In the history of our competition tell me one player who dobbed another? You are being ridiculous.

If he wanted to play he should've not tried the same thing that he was cited for just the previous week. It shows how disdainful he is and you want to just give him another fine? He needs to stop doing it, simple.

 

[ClaytonM]

What a joke...hardly touched him.

Maybe. But when it comes to eyes a hardly touch can do permanent damage. If it was any other region he would have got off. But you don’t f*** with eyes.

He should not be suspended.

The new convention is that the "victim" doesn't give testimony, because it can't be taken at face value. Neale only spoke at the request of the Giants, it was never going to be given much weight.

What player is going to stand up and force another out of a Prelim with his testimony? Ironically, the answer is probably Toby Greene

Can we also suspend Neale for lying at the tribunal?

 

[shizzle]

Apparently the GWS members are revolting if they don't appeal, all 20 of them...

 

[BringouttheGimp]

Feel sorry for the f tribunal re.. brilliant minds wasting their time on the f riff raff.. when they should have joined me at the f Vue re.

 

[Good_Old]

Im surprised the Chewbacca defence didnt work

The gloves don't even fit.

The vafa used to happily hand out suspensions for “insufficient evidence”. Hilarious when it happened.

Just out of interest how does the AFL get to David Jones the Tribunal chairman. He is no lightweight. He has a reputation to protect. What's the method Gil uses to bend him?

Even if not got to, he didn’t enhance his reputation last week.
