Hipwood didn't run off his opponent to hit Ridley 50m off the ball.
You're describing it like a bump. If Rioli wanted to bump him, he would have. He ran between 2 players and his trailing arm bounced off of Finlayson and glanced across Ridley's face.

I didn't realise Ridley played on Rioli.Neither did Rioli
I didn't realise Ridley played on Rioli.
No I didn't.
I said hit. Which is what happened. Rioli hit him in the head.
Players hit other players in the head at almost every contest.
This wasn't a contest. It was off the ball.Players hit other players in the head at almost every contest.
This wasn't a contest. It was off the ball.
Players hit other players in the head off the ball every minute of every game?It was at most a block attempt, which is one of the many kinds of contest where there is incidental head contact every minute of every game.

Just so we're clear.Players block each other every minute of every game, there is incidental head contact at many of these blocks.

If the Tribunal was/is serious about rubbing this sort of behavior out of the game 3-4 weeks
But as we know they aren't, it will likely get 1-2 weeks
Nah, it is.
Probably just don't snipe someone behind the play and concuss them. Really good way to try and avoid a suspension in the first place.

Running what our? Blocking in the forward line?
Players running into other players?
It wasn’t 50m off the ball. You’ve been told this, and shown this umpteen times in this thread.
The ball was kicked to the contest.. finlayson is going for the mark and Ridley was going to contest it.
Question … in a marking contest when the defender engages the forward with a shove in the back, or push or grab…. is that off the ball?
Answer that.
Just so we're clear.
You're suggesting players get hit in the head off the ball with an opponents arm every minute of every game?
Coz that's what's happened here. Rioli hit Ridley (accident or not) in the head with his arm.
You're saying that happens every minute of every game?
I would say that even if in a marking contest (which this wasn't), if it's looking like a 1v1 marking contest and a 3rd person comes in with no eyes for the ball, and concusses the opposition player with some sort of action...that's still actually quite bad.
Here’s a great test

As we can see here Ridley has his arm extended.. far further out than rioli.
If theoretically a port defender had been behind Ridley and gets hit by that arm
1. Is it a dog act?
2. How many weeks is Ridley getting?
I love that you keep repeating this without describing the action because you know if you describe what actually happens during the collision you'll have to exit Helen Lovejoy mode.
Yes it was.No, that isn't what I said.
1. Yes if he hit him in the head.Here’s a great test
