Agreed.
The only mistake Newy made was once he decided to have a crack he shouldve made sure the umpires pet didn't or couldn't get back up. Otherwise what's the point.

Agree he will go but something must have set him off. It is very uncharacteristic and I do not blame him at all. Good on him for showing abit of passion.

1. Hunt smashes Newman late (and earns them a free)
2. Selwood picks up Newman and puts him on the ground (and gets a 50)

If Newman gets done for the grapple on Selwood then I'm officially done with this.

[Simonator]

I dont really get it, surely Selwood should miss matches for PICKING HIM UP AND SLAMMING HIM TO THE GROUND OFF THE PLAY.

Good on Newman, loved watching it. Best bit of action he has given us all year. Umpires were disgusting all game and thats a clear example of it . . .

[Dubstep Dookie]

Duckwood no case to answer

[Tigeritis™©®]

I'm still clueless on why they got a free kick.
Probably that no.  15 umpire too that bald bastard absolutely no idea.

 Does anyone no what it was for or what the umpires thought it was for?

Former Tigers skipper Chris Newman ‘disappointed' with undisciplined act

RICHMOND veteran Chris Newman admits he let himself and his team down with one undisciplined act against the Cats at the MCG on Saturday night.

Newman was partly responsible for allowing the Cats to skip away in the third quarter when the Tigers could, in fact, have closed the gap.

With Geelong leading by 10 points, the former skipper dumped Geelong run-with player Taylor Hunt behind play - just as Dustin Martin had marked inside 50.

The ball was brought back to the wing where the Cats received the free kick. When Geelong captain Joel Selwood ran in to remonstrate with Newman, the two engaged in some good old-fashioned wrestling, with the Cats benefiting from a 50m penalty which would result in a goal.

Instead of the margin being cut to four points, Geelong had skipped clear to lead by 16. The Cats were never headed.

"I'm pretty disappointed in myself there," Newman told Channel Seven's Game Day program on Sunday morning.

"I obviously gave away the 50m penalty. We had the ball in the goal square, I think, down our end and then it went down their end and they kicked a goal so it could have been a 12-point turnaround.

"So yeah, the diciplined acts I've got to get better."

Attention now will likely turn to whether Newman or Selwood incur any punishment from the AFL's Match Review Panel (MRP).
