Van Rooyen got one week. Martin's wasn't worse.
We should appeal. Worst result should be down graded to one week.

Christian does stuff like this to distract the footy fans from him giving Maynard a clean sheet and the embarrassment of having the new CEO kybosh his ruling.

Was unlucky, but not reportable Newman initiated contact.
Martin had a swinging arm, with a clenched fist that connected with his jaw. He went off the ground, holding his jaw, and was off for 10 minutes.
The optics of that means a week at best.
Geezus I wish you were my advocate at tribunal when all those blokes kept headbutting my fist

Remember when zach Merrett punched jsos late and he ended up with fractured ribs and was given one week for a love tap?

I suggest you watch a replay again. When the head and elbow make contact, the elbow is hard against the body. Immediately afterwards is when it starts to raise. I watched it again this morning.
Parker was off the ground? He had the ball, he's allowed to be.
....unless you are talking about a completely different incident to what i'm thinking of.

I wonder if it is worth it. Even a result of a week still leaves us a little vulnerable against the Demons. Maybe we bite the bullet and learn to survive without him. Bring Jack in for Harry and consider Kennedy or Hollands for Martin. I am wondering if Jack could take the place of Marchbank. I think under pressure Marchy is a slow thinker. I also wonder if Motlop should get a start up forward and consider Dow as a sub. Just some thoughts I guess the coach needs to consider with selections.

It should have been a free kick against Parker at the very least for the high hit. Then at least it MAY have been looked at by our illustrious MRO

There is a difference between getting hit in the head.
....and hitting your head.
Decades ago i think it was Scott Lucas who literally walked up to our defender (Bret Thornton?) and were face to face talking then lucas lowered his head and headbutted his chest. He was awarded a free kick for high contact. Thornton literally stood there while the guy walked over and headbutted him....and got penalised for it.
That is the same as what you are saying.
Head high contact was made in both instances.
Head high contact was due to the 'aggressor/tackler' in both instances.
Nobody is doubting Newmans head was hit.
But if you run into a brick wall.....you can't blame the brick wall if you hit your head in the process.
