In the past there has been one.
For this hit? Can't see one.

Whats his defence? His head looked like a football and he tried to knock it forward??
Put up a side by side of his head next to a football??
?
Has he got a "Sherrin' tat on his face? That is priceless.

He does have a head you'd like to kick.

Or looks like its been kicked a few times.

Didn't Hodge give Martin the best argument, something about Blakey not owning a coat hanger?

Ended up getting a standing room ticket which is fine because, well, I like to stand. There was a bloke on SEN just a few minutes ago who is a GOLD club support Carlton member and he couldn't get a ticket either this week or last week! This will be my last year as an AFL member. Sick of their crape treatment. My son has a provisional MCC so I plan to piggy-back off that from next year on.
Anyway, weather is looking great for Friday night so bring it on.
Go baggers!

MCC was gone in a heartbeat and only one visitor pass per ticket in finals.

They days of visitor passes are surely over for finals. We have to stand, your mate didn't get a ticket while non AFL members are sitting in our seats.

Maybe Blakey said or did something to him prior that got him incensed enough to go the cheap shop but it was a bad look and very undisciplined which is a shame given he is playing the best football of his career with the club.
The only hope they have is to argue the impact down from high to medium and he gets a week instead of 2. If it were me, I would grade impact as follows with respect to the player that gets "hit":
- Player continues playing or receives minimal on field treatment/attention - Low
- Player goes off, receives treatment and needs to spend the mandatory 20 mins off then comes back on - Medium
- Player concussed, goes off and misses next week - High

Yep Agree with all that...I would suspend one week of Martin's penalty and would have given Van Rooyen 2 weeks as well with one week suspended as a deterrent to both. I know Brayshaw was knocked out/concussed etc and had to leave the ground but what Martin and Van Rooyen did in striking players was worse behaviour than what Maynard did imho even though the result of the collision with Brayshaw was more damaging to the injured player. ..I must be old school in how I view the game.
