Where is Greene's left arm? For the whole time?

Doing that, then pretending he was then innocent party.

Greene's a clever psycho. Not much he won't do chasing an advantage.

It is truly panic stations at the blues if we are focusing on Greene's high contact which happens 500 times a game and blaming Greene for being eye gouged! Chief do you know a good KC?

 

[Chief]

Unreasonable contact to the eye region. 1 week.

What a grub of a player.

Troll!

Friend, it was momentary and incidental to dragging Greene away to stop him from trying to choke his team mate.

 

[Chief]

Greene was choking hI'm

Doing his best impression of choking another man.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Correct. It was an eye rake which usually gets a week. Glad thats sorted.

Nope. Accidental face rake while pulling him off Gov.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Raking and gouging at the eyes, not good. You hate to see weitering lower his colours like this.

Wait, you just said he is a grub of a player, so wouldn't that be exactly what you'd expect?

That sleeper hold has the Blues player out cold right?

I assume if youre getting choked you probably do something about it? Like... move their arm out of the way?

Unless youve been totally immobilised by that brute.

I thought Wietering was a kind and respected, albeit naive, member of the community. But after tonight, I have real concerns about his moral character.

 

[Rob R]

Definitely a week but after the Cripps farce, Carlton should be confident he will escape a suspension.

If they charge him thats what it'll be, no troll required. Pretty sure the charge is unreasonable contact to the eye region.

 

[PP34]

Not sure there's enough force to warrant suspension.

Interesting comments by Greene after the match. He's clearly annoyed with a couple of recent suspensions.

Then proceeds to sack tap a Blues player with seconds left and finals imminent.

Bloke truly has shit for brains

This is just silly.

Greene had his arm locked around Gov's neck. You can see it as well as anyone else.

A dozen times a week players drag oppo players off their teammates after a tackle. Greene is there trying to bait a free by locking his arm around Gov's neck and pretending he's not doing anything. Then pretending a momentary grab in the middle of that is worth time off!

He's got a bit of a psycho streak.

 

[schmuttt]

No chance the league suspend a Carlton player during a finals series

 

[bluebaggerjuls]

would expect Greene to get atleast a week for a right hook to mcgoverns nuts. Then again I would have expected him to have got more than a $2500 fine for knocking out a bouncer at zagames.

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

There is no reason for his hand to be anywhere near his eyes like that.

Should get suspended but won't be.

You could've just written 'I agree' or not posted at all and just liked the post you quoted.

 

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

Unfortunately, I struggle to see how he doesn't get a week, but those calling it a dog act are either blind or stupid.
Weitering is one of the fairest players in the league. Was a stupid move, but hardly deliberate.
Tried to drag an opponent off his teammate, after a dangerous tackle, while Toby still had said teammate in a choke hold.

Maybe the AFL wants Toby and Weitering in finals and lets Toby off for his dangerous tackle/choke hold/punch in Gov's nuts later on, and finds a way to give them both fines?

Unfortunately, I see Toby getting a nothing to see here, and Jacob getting a week.

He's just lucky that Gov's chin was in the way and the forearm wasn't directly around the neck.
As Weitering dragged him off, Toby kept such a firm lock around Gov's head, to the point where Gov actually got dragged WITH Toby, while Toby has his other arm out trying to plead his innocence.
Meanwhile, Jacob's being called the grub...

 

[Sharaz Jek]

LOL.

Look at Greene's quote covering up his chokehold.

Fantastic metaphor.

 

[cherrypie]

However if Green had done that to Weitering he would get 3 weeks.

Greene literally eye gouged in a final and got 0 weeks. He then did it again the next week and finally got 1. Acting like he is harshly punished is far from reality, he’s had fines for deliberate punches that would be suspensions for most

 

[Corkintheocean]

Should be 2 weeks. Will be offered 1, go to the tribunal and get off. Pathetic from the AFL if he suits up next week.

 

[JasRulz63]

I don't think there's much in that, clumsy but not intentional. Zorko copped a week earlier this year, but he looked like he was going for the face.

 

[Erakor]

Green is a genuine little psychopath.

 

[perplexed]

That isn't a choke hold. Toby hasn't got his arm around the neck, it is on, not under, the chin. Harmless stuff. Looks to me like he is either protecting the guys head from hitting the ground or testing that it is properly connected to the rest of the body.

 

[Orange crush]

Green is a genuine little psychopath.

But what about Greene?

 

[Chief]

testing that it is properly connected to the rest of the body

He is such a thoughtful guy!

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Should let him off. Could be the only final of his career.
Someone think of poor Jacob in all this.
