News from the tribunal:

Dew - successful in his challenge. Deemed that the incident was 'in play' as he could have been used as the next option. Ended up getting 1 week (down from 4??). This is crap - seriously, with the pace that the game is played at the moment, nearly everyone on the field could be claimed to be the next option.

Wilson - also successful in getting around a reprimand. While I agree with this to an extent for the sake of the game, it is the inconsistency that I struggle to grasp (eg the Guerra incident).

How anyone could say that was "in play" is beyond me.

Agree. The ball and the play was nowhere near the non-play actions that he was committing.
