Youre not actually holding Jack up as someone credible are you ?
Its like asking Jack the Ripper if the laws around slaughtering prostitutes are too cumbersome and need to be relaxed...
Let’s go BIG !

It's more about the whole discussion with him, Docherty and the panellists.

He admitted he does a lot worse and gets away with it.

So the question is...if what Coniglio did isn't dissent?
If it's not worth a penalty?
What does constitute dissent?

Are we prepared to let these actions become the standard.
If there's no penalty they will be more frequent because some players are obviously disciplining themselves not to react.
If they're the standard at senior level how will that translate to junior football.

Yep, and not just him. I'm absolutely in favour of treating the umpires with respect, but I think the AFL needs to handle this issue a lot better.

Perhaps the AFL should tell the umpires not to penalise a player who reacts emotionally driven by the belief that the umpire’s decision was wrong or unfair. That would solve everything, wouldn’t it? Tongue

Like Paul mentioned Coniglio is more respectful of the umpires than 90% of the fans in the grounds. When I was a kid I used to sit in the Carlton Social club where the umpires used to walk off.

More to the point, Riewoldt had no idea before the Coniglio free.  It’s bad luck that AFL didn’t bring in a penalty for whinging ?
