Lynch's charge

[Impunity!]

What is silly is that it was obvious that lynch must have known before he left the ground that he was going to be cut off and had no chance of taking a mark (contested or uncontested). The fact he clearly still followed through with the contact (knee or not) was clearly careless, the contact forcefull and dangerous. It deserved a week at least to show that once you are out of a contest there is no room for people to hurt an opposition player out of frustration

By the time he was "out of the contest" he was "already in the air". He would have "needed air brakes" to avoid that collision.

great result. Tribunal functioning perfectly

i thought immediately that lynch would get off- i did think he'd have to do it at the tribunal though. however- good explanation by the mrp, they convinced me there was even less in it that what i initially thought!

wouldn't have been suprised if he'd gotten a week- but congratulations on them deciding that a 50m penalty sufficed.
