Tribunal/MRP - from 2021 - head-butting of fists is allowed

Nice description that just lacks the key words “punch” and “head”.

He’ll write a blank cheque first and fill the amount later.

was it really 16 steps. I don’t remember it being that ridiculous, or are you adding a bid of mayo there for fun?

Nope, that is direct from the article.

Pushed, not punched.

surely it wasn’t 16 steps. man this sport is just flat out corrupt.

Just for you @Diggers to clarify the difference between punch & push

& chest and head.

Just rewatched the video of the Hickey decision. He took four complete steps after taking hold of the ball and before an effective tackle was laid and about 10 steps after the tackle was laid. If that merde had happened anywhere else on the ground the player gets done for holding the ball/incorrect disposal 100% of the time. Sydney being kissed on the dix by umpires shouldn’t be a surprise anymore, but they and the AFL continue to find new and interesting ways that have nothing to do with the rules of the competition to advantage the CyouintheNTs.

We always sook about how hard Essendon is done by . I hope Z

Apologised for having a hard head . Poor Heeney .

It was a decent push.

No doubt he braced for impact with BZT, planted his foot then instinctively let fly with the push.

Happens dozens of times a game.

But there’s not dozens of broken hands a game…with dozens of BZT type exonerations

Not that I’m aware of although I don’t keep a keen eye on the ‘broken hand during push n shove’ stats.

That’s right, hardly any unless you’re a BZT

Again, I haven’t been studying that particular statistic.

Now you’re educated
