The media is mentioning Caddy high spoil on Mackay (who had to go off with concussion) and Nank landing on/over the back off a Crows player on the ground.
Do either or both have any issue with the MRP?
Carey saying Caddy with cop a fine or at most one week.
Edit:
Here's the vision of Caddy's incident: http://www.richmondfc.com.au/video/2018-03-29/round-2-caddy-whack
-
Caddy missed the ball, Nank fell over and hardly made contact. Both will be fine.
-
No issues with either. The Nank incident even being mentioned is just ridiculous
-
Would not be surprised if they both receive fines. They shouldn't though....
-
Caddy was clearly trying to hit the ball but missed it. Easily a fine at best.
Nankervis couldn’t stop his momentum and fell over the idiot.
-
Caddy whack cops a week
-
what about the prick who tried to break Caddy's Rib
-
Media & AFL will make sure a keast one them goes #Cotchinpayback #wereallyareeveryonesgrandfinalthisyear

-
Caddy whack cops a week
Agree
-
1 week for Caddy
-
what about the prick who tried to break Caddy's Rib
Probably got some kidney damage on that one
-
Disgraceful. Pure accident trying to smother the ball. Mackay should retire
-
Surely this is challenged. Just an accident with an unfortunate outcome.

Reported for Striking. Can you be found guilty of striking if its with an open hand?
-
Too much emphasis on the result and not the intent....
That is what is wrong with our judicial system.

Unfortunately the result is the predeterminant of the impact assessment. It needs to be considered.
-
Are you guys for real?
Cotchin played in a Grandfinal last year because the focus was on the intent, not the impact.
-
Michael Christian is an AFL puppet and known Richmond hater. Don’t expect anything but pain from this turd. He was the only member of the panel that wanted to suspend Cotchin last year

And yet Jack Viney got off after breaking someones jaw because the intent wasn't there......
-
If players are going to be judged on the outcome and not the intent then we may as well make it a non-contact sport. What if someone crashes a pack and accidentally breaks someone's leg? It's not like he chose to bump and collected Mackay in the head. He just went to spoil the ball and swatted Mackay in the face instead. poo happens.

AFL is walking a dangerous line here. If they continue to suspend players based on the opponent becoming concussed then where will they draw the line? Eventually we are going to see an incident where a player goes to take a speccy and gives their opponent a knee to the back of the head which results in concussion. Intent was to mark the ball in a legally allowed football action, player could have alternatively contested the mark by not jumping onto to the opponents back, Will this be a suspendable offence? Intent should be the deciding factor in determining suspension or else we are going to end up losing all of the things that make our game great. Surely a legal football action (tackle, mark, smother, etc.) should not result in a suspension if the intent was fair. How do you accurately judge the intent of the action? Well that’s what your getting paid the big bucks for Mr.Christian.
-
yeah but he went round arm he could have poked or swept up or down not across. he had choices and he chose the wrong one even though intent was clearly the ball. 1 week.
-
Players don't have time to think in that situation, see ball get ball, not sure Caddy had time to think about the best method to spoil.
Christian is another polical appointee by the thought police and their stooges!

JOSH Caddy will miss Richmond's round three clash against Hawthorn after accepting a one-match suspension for striking Adelaide's David Mackay.
Caddy was offered a one-match ban by match review officer Michael Christian after collecting Mackay in the head with an ill-directed round-arm spoil during the fourth quarter of the Tigers' 36-point loss at the Adelaide Oval last Thursday night.
Christian assessed Caddy's action as careless conduct with medium impact to the head.
The AFL announced on Monday that Caddy had accepted his one-man suspension, while his teammate Toby Nankervis and Adelaide youngster Darcy Fogarty had each accepted $1500 fines for misconduct.
Nankervis was charged with misconduct against Crows onballer Matt Crouch during the first quarter of last Thursday night's match, while Fogarty was charged following an incident with Caddy during the second quarter.
