    Greene found guilty. Now deciding on the penalty. AFL counsel is pushing for 6 weeks.

      Just so you know here is the definition of rationale to be fair you nailed the reasons but missed the logical basis component
      “a set of reasons or a logical basis for a course of action or belief.”
      I think it’s the same sort of rationale that leads Americans to believe that Trump is still president.
      Also not sure where “ the vibe “ comes into it and I will agree for possibly the twenty second time since 2016 I believe there was an unconscious bias against us by all of the umpires not just one but was it cheating ? I don’t believe so

        No one could keep up with your 99.9% probabilities +-20% bull shirt you are not even clutching at straws you are tilting at windmills.
        While I am in lock down I would like to make a tinfoil hat to take away the boredom. Does anyone have a link to how to make one. Who in the hell invented that bull dust term any way?

          Get a hat, cover it in tin foil. = safe from government brain wave machines. (those green boxes you see on the road market "substation"... Pffstt, as if)

            Toby Greene suspended for three matches. Fair enough, in my opinion.

            And yes, Stevic doesn't like the Swans. The 2016 GF is all the evidence you need. Was it him or another umpire that didn't pay the Swans a free kick in three out of four quarters of that game?

              Lol some quality mathematics on show here Barry - if you are going to talk in probabilities, please at least learn how they work :P

              You can't have a +/- 10% margin if your original assertion is 99.99%. Because it is simply not possible that something can be 109.99% likely to have happened

                3 weeks. I think my initial prediction was spot on. Well, maybe a week off with the final line:


                My predictions:
                If it was selwood who did same thing: a fine.
                If it was a normal player: 1 week (because its missing a final).
                If the AFL want to 'set an example': 2 weeks (give him a chance at a grand final).
                Toby tax: 4 weeks.


                Interesting that Stevic said it wasnt deliberate, Toby said it wasnt deliberate, yet tribunal deemed it deliberate. Maybe grounds for appeal.
                The AFL asking for 6 weeks is a bit putrid. Are they anti-player?

                  All three. We didn't recieve a free kick for just under 3 quarters worth of play.

                  Greene got what he deserved for idiotic behaviour. I read somewhere he has been charged something like 22 times over his career now..... fool.

                    Didnt do maths at school?. Margins of error can go over absolute limts. The limts block them. 99.99% +/-10% = is between 100% and 89.99%. the +/- is the certainty.

                        Simple advise, freely offered, if you dont understand something, keeping quiet is a good tactic to hide your ignorance.
                        Changed subject?... yeah, nah.

                        I know in society at the moment, ignorance is celebrated. Everyones opinion is equal, blah, blah. But science and mathematics dont care for that rubish.

                          Lol its 'advice', not 'advise'. Did you not do English at school hey?

                          I'd love to see a link from a reliable website that explains margins of errors in a way that encapsulates your nonsensical ramblings. It is not possible that something can simultaneously 'go over absolute limits' while at the same time 'the limit blocks them'. You can't have it both ways...... although you do try pretty with your predictable quick turns to GWS superfan whenever the Swans are knocked out or you've got free tickets to the showground.....

                            No....just rightfully anti-thug. Great decision by the tribunal....at last. Hands up those who think Toby will learn from this and change his ways?

                              Sometimes sycophantic bias is celebrated too. I don't think science and maths (even your strange brand of) doesn't care for that either Barry.....move on now.

                                @@@@ we've seen some weird stuff on RWO in 2021 Stevo I did hope we had seen the end of it at least for a little while, but this thread has turned really strange even by 2021 standards!
