Identical. Greene gets weeks.

Pretty similar. Level of force probably means a couple less weeks though

Yeah agree. Force is lower, so lower penalty. But that aside, the events are as identical as you will get on a footy field.

Well 1 is about right. Same as the what the penalty should have been for Peter Wright.
What do you think the “impact” component of the charge means?
Of course the outcome of the action carries weight. And given that the AFL rarely uses a “deliberate” for intent it will always appear to carry more weight, even in incidents that are similar.
Greene was never going to get 4. One guy went off on a stretcher… One got up and played on.
It isn’t that controversial.

So all about outcome then.
Of course it is. Has been for years. And the slap shot approach to the “likely to cause injury” clause is laughable.
Just because a drunk doesn’t have an accident whilst driving, doesn’t mean it’s not dangerous.

“yOu HaVe To CoNtEsT tHe BaLL!!!”
“Mark or punch, not brace yourself!”
Aside from the fact it defies basic human instinct which we all possess…
The outcome is as below. Usually with a lot worse outcome. Hands out for the ball just means an elbow or fist to the head for the player going back.

Yep he looks like Donald Trump being s corck smoker
may be one day Sydney will play Essendon in Melbourne. God knows the AFL has gifted you extra attendance cash to prop your club up by playing Sydney in Sydney every year

Love the Essendon chums in here acting like what 2 meter Peter and Greene did are the same thing.
At no stage did 2 meter Peter try to contest the ball.
Toby was fine. Let him play.

Maybe, but it sure as hell wont be in September.

All games going back to when we earned a home final against you guys. So since then 5 games in Melbourne and 5 in Sydney
But wait, we're playing you guys again later this year in Melbourne
So by the seasons end we'll have played more in Melb in the last few seasons than at the g
So shelve the belly aching

you obvously havent seen the stupid faces that clown pulls. well parker is right up there with him
Worse outcome? Proceeds to attach a clip of a very benign outcome
There you go, both players going at the ball with a marking action causes less damage compared to an almost guaranteed concussion due to a shoulder to the head.

Essendon coach takes aim at AFL over lack of clarity regarding contentious bans
“Clearly the AFL determine a penalty based on outcome, not on action – that’s abundantly clear now to everyone.”

Well Brad, this is why Wright shouldn't have plead guilty.
I'm glad he's finally taken his AFL badge off.

He had to go. It was identical to Wright.
He doesn’t deserve it, but that’s where we’re at.
