Not a bad haul from the Tigers this week by the AFL $3000 and a ban. All for something either apparently accidental or not malicious. At leats they obviously took pity on Marlion this week and left him alone

With Richmond, any contact by us above the toe is deemed high contact
Just going back on the Jonas one. When Pickett went to the tribunal, we were told that he didn't get off because the minimum grading for head high contact from a bump is medium and you cannot argue this down. This weekend proved that was *smile*. Jonas got Aish with a bump, head high and was graded low impact hence whgy he only got a fine.
What a complete crock of *smile*.
That is stunning even by the woeful standards of the AFL. Vlastuin gets a week for high contact with a gut punch. They're just taking the p!ss now, really couldn't care less if they contradict themselves.

Madness. The only thing consistent about the AFL is their desire to punish the tigers.
Did Dimma come out with a glowing character report on 360? Tell everyone what a terrific guy nick is and he definitely didn’t mean to hit the wet coke player?

Richmond- Keeping the AFL afloat since 2017
I‘m submitting that to the AFL as their new marketing slogan
Think about it. crowd numbers, tv ratings, membership numbers, media coverage ( eg Dusty out of contract 2017- is he staying or going?. Dusty still in contract 2022- is he staying or going?). Financially ( has any other club been fined so heavily in that period? ( take out individual player fines, spa-gate, kebab-gate). But if anyone has the time, knowledge and inclination,I would love to know what each team has been fined in that period. I would bet my house we would top the ladder on that count
Poor Marlion Pickett fined again.
Cotch too.
They don't miss.

Pickett, Cotchin charged by MRO
The Match Review Officer has completed their review of Sunday's game against Brisbane, with Marlion Pickett and Trent Cotchin both cited.

This is becoming a farce. Especially for Marlion.
Excessive fines administered arbitrarily and subjectively by a single person working for the AFL could severely undermine the salary cap as an equalisation tool.
Do all clubs receive weekly fines like we do? Who makes the decision?
Is there transparency over this process? Can the public view data to keep the AFL accountable? I'd like to see data for incidents cited, which teams are involved, by TV time slot / day, etc. but I think I already know the answer.
