Should have got 6 weeks or a massive fine for the low act against Schnieder.

Schnieds hasn't had a free kick for us since he told an umpire off in about 2009. They have long memories those <insert nice word here>,

Yep the umpire cheated in the 2009 GF by delibratley not paying a clear free to Sneider directly in front. The ump even put the whistle to the mouth then realised who it was.

If a retiring player commits a reportable offence in their final game, they should be fined, not reprimanded or suspended. It's just common sense.

with the points system love to know how you arrive at 6 weeks

Seriously of course it was a bad act, but within the system we have was always what was going to happen

Would have got a week but the good record and early plea reduced the points enough
