Hartigan has been done on a video from the internet.
That mobile phone footage might be the only footage of the incident the media has. But there are cameras stationed above the goals at each end that are reviewed at the end of the game by the MRO, AFL and both teams for a variety of reasons, including capturing off the ball incidents like this. But I do reckon the media coverage forced the MRO to take action.
The MRO raffle continues with Kyle Hartigan three matches for that hit on Sam Walsh. Nick Holman gets two matches for run-down tackle on Mitch Duncan. Lachie Plowman two matches for contest with Jaeger O’Meara. And Taylor Walker & Darcy Fogarty get soft fines.
The Holman suspension will get most of the attention in the media but I reckon that's not the only dodgy call here.
BTW, the AFL has said it will provide an official comment later today on the 2 controversial non decisions late in the Crows - Melbourne game.
