Live Event Toby Greene fronts the tribunal - Suspension appeal

[Demontim275]

Man calm down. If this isn’t offended I don’t know what is. Your post is a bizarre mass of defensive assumptions.

Thank you for attributing some emotions to a stranger online...

I mean you’ve spent pages jumping to the defence of a footballer you don’t know. If you consider me replying to you “offended” what would that be called?

I’m perfectly calm. Not sure your psychoanalysis is on par.

Defensive? What am I defensive of? We aren’t discussing me or anything to do with me? What a strange thing to say.

 

[Demontim275]

We’ll just have to add you alongside Mofra as people who’s head’s I’m living in rent free.

Might pay to actually read my response before you look even more foolish.

You’re living in my head because I mocked you just after you posted something?

Does that mean bont is the only tenant of yours? You seemed to go out of your way to whinge about him in this thread

My god Sydney people are weird.

Regardless of what he did/didn't do it's a silly thing to do in a semi final. If I were a Giants fan I'd be pretty pissed off

No, because you felt the need to jump in and ask a question posed directly at me. Your first thought was to answer it?

And I wasn’t the one that initiated Da Bont in this thread, that was Mothra.

That’s rent free, baby.

Okay you do you bud. Don’t let strangers online bug you out too much.

I actually think he did learn from the Bont incident and the subsequent tribunal outcome. Just not as much as people expected (or hoped) he would. Because the Bont incident is categorically worse and Greene was charged with “serious misconduct” for a combination of things in that incident. He probably got the message that he’d gone “too far” in that and thought if that’s the “too far” line, then surely softer versions of the things I did there in isolation would not be “too far”.

He isn’t just going to shrink back into a perfect teacher’s pet type just because he was told his Bont roughing up was over the line. He would have known what he did to Neale was no where near as rough as he was with Bont and that he had genuinely made a compromise with the MRO concerning his niggling behaviour to keep it below a certain level of ferocity.

THE AFL dug themselves a whole by giving him a fine at the tribunal, he should have been rubbed out for the season for what he did to Bont and Brisbane would have been in the prelim. The AFL stepped in and gave an appalling outcome, they will learn from their mistake.

I think this just sums up “people from Sydney are weird”

Judging by the lack of intelligent thought, im thinking Toby might have created a few big footy accounts

You’re really, really bad at this.

 

[Demontim275]

You’re really, really bad at this.

It’s okay. You probably missed the point again

You’re new to sport. It’s forgivable.

You do only need one account though mate.

Yeah, no, I got the point - the point is you have no idea.

About anything.

FFS eye gouging is not subtle niggling. We do not palm the face in AFL.

He didn't eye gouge. If he did he would be gone for 12 weeks.
But keep up the hysterics.

 

[Colonial]

You're defending clawing at a bloke's face.

"You're soft in the head" if you think that's acceptable part of AFL football.

Your protected boy was doing it to Lids when Greene came over the top.

 

[Demontim275]

I mean it’s kinda funny watching a guy who missed the point over a whole page say this

Toby. Get help. Your fake tough guy attitude isn’t working online. I think a clinical psych might be useful.

1) What point did I miss?
2) It’s not fake. Nor tough. How do you even jump to the conclusion that it’s either?

Just saw you called me Toby...

Christ almighty you are shocking at this.

So you missed a point and a joke and had it pointed out but still don’t get it? Wow. It’s like inception of missing the point

Mate. It’s okay. Call another few blokes champ. Maybe beat ups senior. Just do what you do. We get it. You’re the big scary alpha

 

[Outstanding]

Why are people interacting with these 2 clowns. The only reason he got a fine last week was Bont got a fine in round 22, both bad decisions. This charge has been very carefully worded to ensure there is no wriggle room, suspension will be upheld, let's focus on the football.

Going the personal route? Tsk tsk.

Ok so say for a minute that he didn't actually touch Neale or Bont's eyes when he went over the top of a pack and toyed with their faces with a clawed hand... Then what exactly was he doing?

That's what it will come down to tonight. This time he has to defend a one week penalty, so he certainly needs a good argument unless the AFL gets him off again by going soft on their recommendation (AFL counsel last week only recommended a fine and no penalty themselves hence agreeing with GWS counsel – big mistake IMO and made them look like idiots since he did something similar days later).

In my mind there's no doubt he should go. Not 12 weeks for actually eye gouging, but a week (or two) for purposely endangering players' faces out of play.

I just don't see why else he would, two weeks in a row:
- Jump over the top of pack
- Target the opposition's best player
- Slam their faces to the ground / pull their hair (just for this he should have got a week last week, eye gouge or no eye gouge)
- Claw his hands and 'play' with their faces, touching or getting dangerously close to their eyes

Just like Hawkins yesterday, I can't see a reasonable explanation for what he did other than something worthy of a suspension for an intentional act.

Please, point to the “point I missed”. Use the quote function; make me look stupid so everyone can pile in on me.

And after you’ve done that can you get your carer to translate this incoherent drivel please?

No, he wasn't, not in the slightest. Watch here from 19 seconds and explain how what he did to Delideo was anywhere close to what Greene did to him?

Mofra quoted and explained it already. I mocked you in a quote over you missing the joke.

Seriously you even miss the point of missing the pount

Nawww how cute big tough guy implies people he disagrees with have mental disabilities.

But yeah. It’s you who is living rent free

Probably one of the best posts I’ve read about this entire saga.

Kudos.

My reply was; “well they don’t all wear gloves, for a start...”

Name one modern day, current player that wears gloves.
