How do they pick out 2 players, 1 from each team to fine? Yet not fine the instigator cripps? Bemusing

Bloody great question Butch.

The melee doesn't even start without Cripps getting into Dion.

Ridiculous that he wasn't fined

Think it might have been a different wrestle.
Poor old Christian is still trying to take his socks off so he can properly count all the shekels he's going to charge for the all in melee at 3 qtr time.
 
Maybe we should start a competition on here. Posters can nominate which Tiger will get fined for each round. Maybe make it a bit juicier and also nominate how much they will get fined..
Maybe people on here who might have contacts in the AFL hierarchy can organise for the winners to be able to sit in on the adjudication process?

Funny thing about it, Lynch went in to break it up. Ends up being mauled by Carlton players and then cops a fine by the AFL.

Congratulations to Tom Lynch MRP has drawn number 19 this week and given big Tom a $1000 fine for wrestling
Rather surprised that Carlton enforcer Jack hit man Silvagni, wasn’t arrested for his hit, jumper punch and language to wards Noah Balta on the wing boundary fence in the 2nd.
Poor Noah was left shaking in his boots.

Cripps cracked under pressure. Fancy going on with it by attacking Prestia after the siren. I love how Dion did not back down one inch.

Likewise Voss cracked the Tom Tits by making a song and dance about the Vlastuin ball touch non-goal.

Clearly Carlton are not used to high pressure games every week. Will be interesting over next few weeks as it builds.

Not a great example to set your team mates.

Cripps aggressive shove on Prestia out of the field of play instigated the entire melee.
Yeh it’s crazy. The only guy that should be fined is the instigator and the first guy to engage and continue it. Come down heavy on the instigator and you will stamp it out. Cripps is definitely treated differently to other players. I’ve never really noticed how many throws he gets away with but if Thursday night is an example he’s a bulldog class chucker .

Agree, and he receives a Judd like amount of time to get rid of the footy on a lot of occasions.

WTF happened to the melee rule?? Couple of years back there'd be 30 to 50 thou worth of fines for all that anti social tupperware tuff pushing n shoving. How the hell is the fan base supposed to get all out raged n upset if there's just a piddly little fine for one player from all that macho testosterone.

Surprised Peter Ladhams only got a fine for his blatant punch on Ollie Wines. I can never work this MRP thing out.
