Agree. Figjam was the reason I was barracking for Richmond. Hate the way he throws himself forward to get frees. Bad habit. Got worse over time.

Don't rope me into this.
* Western Bulldogs defender Taylor Duryea has been charged by the AFL Match Review Officer for striking Collingwood’s Josh Thomas on Friday night.
Duryea has been fined $3000, but he can accept a $2000 sanction with an early guilty plea.
* Danger straight to tribunal
Anyone care to predict how many weeks for Danger? Intentional contact, high contact and severe impact should equal 3 weeks but is there a Dangerfield clause that gets it down to two weeks?
This has all the hallmarks of a high powered team of lawyers doing their thing.
I think they will play a video of Danger surfing in a suit with Happyland’s “Don’t you know who I am” playing in the background. Tribunal members will all get three weeks for daring to challenge him.
1 for Danger.
Danger will either get 3 weeks or nothing.
I think Dangerfield will get off.
The bump was not to the head as it was a clash of heads.
I know he chose to bump so the result is his responsibility, but it is Dangerfield.
The tribunal option is simply to allow the MRO to bypass a decision.
I think this is in the same realms as when you tackle someone and they hit their head. Nobody intends to make their opponent hit their head, but if you do and they are knocked out you have a holiday coming your way. It should come down to poor technique rather than intentional, but surely he couldn’t get off.
Spot on, I think most of us understand (but not agree with) that there are rules some players can break and get away with. Danger is one of those players but as a competition if you implement a rule at late notice given it's being regarded as a serious one then he should receive 3 weeks given the impact to the player.
