Good to see we are contributing to AFL coffers this week for a stupid but harmless Pickett act and staging by Butler after he started the problem. We should automatically offer up a contribution to the AFL every week to save them the trouble citing one of our team!
Don't want to risk a suspension, but a very silly decision, why Pickett gets a fine for that is a mystery.

Unfortunately, there’s not much else we can do. Appeal, and they’ll suspend him (they’ll never admit they got it wrong). Can’t publicly complain. We’re stuffed. Just have to accept it.
The poor AFL surfaces again begging for cash. Tripping......FMD....how far can these scumbags go.
Richmond players getting pinged by the MRO is as predictable as Richmond players getting ducked over by the umpires.
Cmon guys, I’m as one eyed as the best of them but it was definitely there. Lucky it wasn’t more of a penalty imo
I did enjoy one of the replies
”Haven’t seen a Tank destroy the English like that since France, 1940”
Why is tripping a fine? It's just part of the game when a free kick is given. The GWS player who did that to Balta didn't cop any fine.
Its funny really.
In the NRL tripping is a completely legitimate way of stopping an opponent.
I think it should be allowed.
PS..didn't English punch Nank in the face in a centre bounce? Caused him to go off bleeding.
So is tripping more unacceptable than a punch to the face?
Bizarre really. AFL is farcical.

Love Nanks aggression but throwing your leg should strictly be kept for more intimate moments!
Ryder offered 2 weeks is ridiculous.
First the bump is dead now the brace is dead.
Tackling will be next. Then reckless collision in a marking contest & soon enough we will be left with basketball by foot. Concussion is changing the game so fast.

The Ryder decision highlights how scared the AFL is about concussion. The game is changing fast.
Does my head in. Just make the players sign a waiver that they are aware of the risk if the play and that is conditional if you want to play the game. If you don't want to drown, don't swim.
