Jack Riewoldt fined for wrestling / Sylvia gets 2 weeks and Davey 1 week

[one-eyed]

Melbourne could be without both Aaron Davey and Colin Sylvia for its clash with Gold Coast on Sunday after both were offered sanctions.

Davey has received a two-match suspension, which can be reduced to one match with a guilty plea, for elbowing Richmond's Mitch Morton on Sunday, while Sylvia could have his year finish prematurely after receiving a two-week ban for striking Tiger Jayden Post.

Due to his poor record, Sylvia's penalty cannot be reduced with a guilty plea.

And Tigers full-forward Jack Riewoldt and Demon Jordie McKenzie were each fined $1200 ($900 with a guilty plea) for wrestling,

Davey should have got more than Sylvia.

I'd like to see Gold Coast get a win at the MCG against the dee's. It's something to finish the season off with a high for the young guys up there.

Davey should have got more than Sylvia.

medium impact?

these clowns are off their trees.

If Morton was a boxer he would have been counted out.

How many weeks did the imbecile ump get?

[Go Richo 12]

Early plea on wrestling? Whats this game getting to?

[Owl]

JR got boned hard with wrestling, he got mugged, dragged to the ground and was merely trying to get the angry, ugly little prick off of him.  I say this with no bias, I watched the replay.  What do they do in the MRP, just make poo up?

That's crediting them with too much inteligence Owl.

I think they just have a couple of options and they randomly choose 1
