What does this do to his rising star prospects ?

Rubbish.
Kid is a gun. Was better yesterday.

Gun? no. But can play. However, the most overrated player in the history of anything, ever. :shh

Not his fault, though. It's those who proclaim him to be the 2nd coming.  :shh

Just enjoy a fine young man's footy without the pressure  :shh

Apparently the one match suspension was pretty much for the action, I'm pretty sure that if the player was injured he would have gotten considerably more time.

The third quarter, the premiership quarter, it's Dusty time. He starts to shine and then delivers in the most AWESOME fashion.

A free and a 50m penalty is what it deserved and what it got. The umpire didn't report him and he was right there. The video should be for things that are missed on the field by the umpires. This wasn't missed. It just wasn't considered bad enough for a report.

It’s strange because they over the telecast you could hear the ump clearly say he reported him but then none of the match reports showed any player reported.

Another example of the lack of consistency with the MRP

Some weeks it's a fine other weeks it's a week  :huh3

No point in appealing  :-\

Yeah heard the ump say he'd been reported

Why waste $10k?

Oops silly me... clubs rolling in the $$$ these days

90k members has its rewards  :rollin

But seriously, can't really see the point.

The tribunal is on par with the ICC when it comes to make tough calls

All they have to prove is that it was careless rather than intentional and it's a fine....

To do that you need Graham to give evidence. Only he knows if he hit him in the head intentionally or whether he was aiming for his arm/shoulder and carelessly collected him high.....

Graham is also on the seventh line of betting at Sportsbet for the Rising Star award, and will be ineligible for the award if the ban is upheld.
