Believe Stewart from the Moggies committed a similar action to Williams effort during the round. Williams get a week as deserved, Stewart n it's crickets.

Finally - it’s get some air time - this Hocking Geelong bias thing…

Don’t want to quote myself but I will.

Another article today highlighting the Geelong bias with the mrp - Carltons Williams gets a week for pushing a face into the turf but the cats Stewart does the same thing and not even mentioned or fined. The article suggested they should be treated identically.

I think the Geelong bias is now being seen for what it is - Ablett, Selwood, Hawkins and Danger etc have spent or their free passes to Go.

Hocking needs a video montage of all the incidents - his own club included - sent to his inbox ...
.... the one he carries around with him ... that's part of his body ..

Yep. Done a Joel Selwood.

I don't think he did "drop" the knees. He could have done more to avoid contact as he stood up, but it wasn't a McKernan knee. Either way we get no help from the TV control room. Any incident, even a mild one, is highlighted while the ones that go the other way never seem to get replayed?

Even considering he's a short bloke.

Why don't Duckwood or Clangerfield get sighted for those?
Because of hocking.
The media slids it under the carpet.
Compare what Dangerfield did on Friday night to what BigV and Grimes got crucified for against Essendon last year?

How many weeks for Shuey? Tho it is prob not an MRP question as it should go straight to tribunal.
The action was worse than Houli's that got him 4 weeks. But the injury obviously wasn't.
