        Wouldn't he be suspended if he losses the appeal though?

          Why did the Carlton player get completely off, his was head high and dangerous and really hurt the other player.

            Why did Murphy and Burgoyne get suspended...?

              FFS are you serious? We're lucky he escaped a suspension at all.

                ?? This was written in the Fox Sports article....

                "The club has yet to officially decide whether to contest the Goodes' finding at the tribunal, but are almost certain to accept the reprimand."

                  Spida just commented on FSN that he reckons the club should just accept. Sounds like he was a little surprised by the outcome, though he didn't indicate whether that was just his view or was shared by others at the club.

                  Mind you, they did replay the incident a few times and it really was soft as butter. Still think he's on the lucky side but it was nothing like the other recent incidents (soft even as some of them were).

Let's hope Goodesy answers the critics the best way possible next Saturday night.
                    And she never tips us to win..Last week she tipped her beloved toothless ones and this week the evils, no doubt she'll tip the aints next week and the debacles the week after ... she really does detest our team.....and what could be better than that.

                      Is Goodes still eligible for Charlie if he accepts the reprimand?

                      sensible decision by MRP, I thought he was having a week off which would have been a shame, he's up to 203 games on end isn't he?

                        No, no longer eligible if he accepts. Lucky boy tho watching it again Selwood does fumble the ball and the contact is pretty slight.

                          Honestly, this could have been anywhere between 3 weeks and a reprimand, and in all cases could have been justifiable. He doesn't move off his line, and he doesn't brace for contact, which suggests he wasn't going for the man, and yet he doesn't go for the ball either. A very odd situation, and the MRP could have gone either way. As it was, they seem to have decided he was NOT playing the man, which renders the contact negligent. He didn't move off his line, and he didn't brace for a bump, so it was unintentional and negligent. Simple. But at the same time, they could have said that he didn't make any attempt at the ball, so he must have been playing the man, which makes the contact reckless, which would get him a considerably higher penalty. Both make sense. Goodes got lucky in a fifty/fifty decision.

                                And does anyone know if the Selwood reprimand is for the tummy punch or the incident that led to Buchanan leaving the ground with a bloody cheek? I can't remember who it was who tickled Monty's tummy but one would have to assume it was the cheek incident, given the conclusions reached on other charges where the contact was deemed to be too insignificant to be a reportable offence.
