Oh no he’s been reported twice in 4 years.. what a thug, let’s get one of the best players in the comp out of the league.

He may have a great record for a long period of time, but threw 3 clear punches.

To get 2 weeks with 1 hanging over from Grand finals is baffling.

Especially since the game wants to get rid of that rubbish and we are now more aware of concussion etc, surely a 2 week punishment sends a wrong message out.

He would have copped 4 weeks for the two he may or may not have connected with and 4 for the one he did in the Ammos, and that would be on a reduced pleaded guilty case. (8 in total)

They (VAFA) are hell bent on blokes being able to front up to work and welfare in general of its players. Clearly the WRFL doesn't hold the welfare of its custodians in the same precious light

No one's calling him a thug but if you do the crime you do the time, no matter how many times you have or haven't been reported. Plenty of players with long careers never been reported.

TT definitely not condoning what he did as I am wrapt he is out for the finals series because I don’t follow deer park but for OTP to sit there and call him a thug and be better for him not to be in the competition is a bit over the top. The WRFL needs star players and he is definitely one of them.

It's a weak as piss suspension for a thug act.

I'm not calling Jase a thug or that he should be banned for life, but anything light of 4 weeks makes a mockery of the WRFL protecting people who put their bodies on the line to represent it. No wonder people drop off the game, say he was a tradie, and copped a broken jaw, needed 6 weeks off work....

The league had an opportunity to send another message, and again they missed the mark.

The quicker Football Victoria come in and overthrow the muppets in HQ, the better.
 
Naaawwww the bleeding hearts here are incredible. He's a good footballer so it gives him a free pass to do what he likes without consequences, does it?

Steal shit and get caught = you're a thief
Tell lies and get caught = you're a liar
Bash someone like Jase did for everyone to see in the video = you're a thug

Come on TT, how can you post "...for a thug act" and in the very next sentence say "I'm not calling Jase a thug"? It's precisely what you did, by definition!

"Hey, I just burgled your house, it was a thief act but don't call me a thief because I only get seen doing it once a year."

Change my mind.

I've watched the bloke for years and even in juniors he fancied himself as a tough guy. He, along with countless others have got away with it for years.

Being a “tough guy” and a thug are completely different things. Port didn’t play against Altona that often either so you couldn’t have watched him to much.

Probably seen him play 15 to 20 times and each and everytime in those 15 to 20 games I've witnessed him committing or attempting to commit acts of thuggery. Every. Single. Game.
 
Perkins guilty & 3 weeks about right, given outcome of GF miss is a huge penalty in itself. His a gun player whom I've seen a lot, plays hard but not traditionally a thug.

The player struck seen it coming, but Van REIT on the other hand is a lot more than a thug, seen him crack two blokes whom didn't see it coming & should have been banned for life........ My opinion is Perkins would be sincere & regretful of his actions.

Hard to argue with that. I suppose I'm merely calling it as an isolated incident as I have no evidence to suggest otherwise.

None the less, the leniency shown by tribunal makes me think that the WRFL have no care for its players

Van Reit is the biggest grub in the comp by a mile, should of been banned for life a long time ago

Looked like the Spotswood player hammed it up a bit and dropped like a sack of s**t to get the free kick.

Would have thought the three punches thrown are more the issue here

Thanks mate for the vision. It difficult to see what lead up to the incident. You can see the Spotty player kind of go back with a knee post the leg grab. Did that agitate Perkins? I’m not sure it’s thuggery as the Spotty guy was having a crack but definitely a reportable incident by the limited vision from my iPhone. I think 2-3 weeks is fair especially if he misses a GF. Was there any damage to the Spotty player? That is usually taken into consideration..

PS: imo thuggery is king hits, hitting from behind, kicking or late hits when in a marking contest or when players have there head over the ball.

Swinging punches is a thug act. It's 2019. Not 1979
