    AFL tribunal 2019: Toby Greene report, eye contact with Lachie Neale, insult to our intelligence, AFL 360 | Fox Sports

    This footage which I hadn’t seen enlarged etc is completely crystal clear that Toby’s hand “rakes” across the face of Neale

    Goodnight Toby
    It’s a week off

    It's still head-high contact, and it's still against the rules.
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

    2 man pile-ons are very common. Its a tactic to force a ball-up used by all teams. Nothing unusual about being 1.5 seconds late to tackle.

    He has form of pulling hair and rough conduct from the bulldogs game. Anything more is baseless speculation. And his intent is unknown. I think the Giants will argue he was feeling around for the ball. He is unsighted.

    And the extend of the breach of rules is a penalty against (in game).

    Yeah no.
    Are you a swans fan, or just a GW$ troll?

    This discussion and topic has nothing to do with the swans.

    Being a Swans fan does not imply you hate GWS.

    I can understand your view since you are product (and avid consumer) of the por-victorian media.
    But ignoring the media, and just using the data of TV vision, Bontempelli/Neale comments, and AFL tribinal findings, the above is true.

    It should.

    Melbourne based Swans fans should be aware that some of us up here in the centre of the known universe find it difficult to accept that the
    fortunes of our team appear to be heavily influenced by the goings on in this funny little place made up of tiny laneways and a strange looking
    brown "river" to our south. It's quite challenging.

    Well, yeah, but a persecution complex is a bridge too far...

    Making assumptions at Olympic level too. We'll make a decathlete of you yet.

    When one of your primary tourist attractions is "good coffee", you know you're struggling.

    Will be barracking for GWS against Collingwood. Hope Greene plays and there is a trace of a witch hunt here but why on earth would be put himself in this position by putting his hands anywhere near Neale's face? Giants defending him as playing on the edge but he can't seem to help himself. Hawkins in same boat with the swinging arm.
