Re: MRP - Steven charge with striking Bont - Fine
what was the incident?
"No applicable record"?
...Jack was already fined 3 weeks ago for walking into Stephen Coniglio of the Giants.
He was accused of "kneeing" but to me, it looks like he was simply walking and Coniglio had moved slower
than Stuv anticipated.
Biomechanically, when one is walking, one lifts each foot, which means a knee comes up as well.

Re: MRP - Steven charge with striking Bont - Fine
In a week where there was supposed to be a zero tolerance for jumper punches and the sort - a fine is the result of a clear and intentional strike to the upper body (Sydney v Hawthorn). Hhhhmmmm - nothing to see here - no jumper was being held.
