You could argue about whether he should've got 3 or 2, but I think he needed to get something. If it was Gray tackling Gibbs like this, we'd be screaming blue murder.
As long as the AFL applies the same standards for all players, then fine. Not that they have a great track record on this, but we live in hope.

They really need to look at intent when applying these decisions. The fact that you can clobber someone and get 3 weeks, yet lay a tackle (within the rules) and get the same is just idiotic.

1 week would have been sufficient

I certainly think you could make a reasonable case for 2 weeks, reduced to 1 with a guilty plea.

Just another piece of knee-jerk anti Blues crape from the AFL, stoked up by biased sections of the media - yet again true to form, never expected anything less. >
The AFL really are a bl00dy disgrace!

How many weeks did that juiced up bomber get for the drive tackle on Carrazzo that broke his collarbone?

The umpires didn't lay a report or even pay a free kick!
Outside of a few spuds like Bartlett and Dwayne making a big stink, most thought Gibbs had no case to answer.
Which media types are sitting on the MRP this week?

Hope the AFL is ready to out half of Hawthorns team every week, Joel Selwood and Nat Fyfe cause I've watched them perform the same tackle every week.
Gray was not concussed, according to Ken Hinkley he was kept of for precautionary measures only.
Riccuito was baying for blood before the stretcher was off the field.
