Sounds like they are going for option number 3 on that list.

"Under AFL guidelines, a Tribunal decision can be appealed if "classification of (the) offence (is) manifestly excessive or inadequate", which looms as the club's likely line of attack at the Appeals Board."

How is there consistency between him getting a week for something innocuous & Cripps getting off his head-high contact where he chose to leave the ground to bump in '22 that put Ah Chee in concussion protocols & missed 2 weeks?
EDIT: And Butters a few weeks ago where he chose to strike.
Farcical.

Plenty of intentional conduct when you CTRL F in this list below and plenty of name & non-name players getting sanctioned instead of suspended.

Listening to Triple M this morning and Max Gawn was on, he said he had a hairline fracture in his ankle which is "basically just a rolled ankle" (his words). He said typically for a rolled ankle you are expected to get up the following week so missing 1 is already giving him more time. He is out of the moon boot and will commence running today, and then see how he pulls up. He fully expects to play.
Take from that what you will, but I thought it was interesting information from the man himself so thought I'd post it.

BRISBANE star Charlie Cameron will miss the blockbuster clash against Sydney on Sunday, with the Lions forward one four players to cop suspensions from Sunday's action.
Cameron has copped a three-week ban for his tackle on West Coast's Liam Duggan, while Greater Western Sydney's Toby Bedford (three weeks) and Gold Coast pair Alex Davies (three weeks) and Malcolm Rosas jnr (one week) have also been rubbed out.
Cameron drove Duggan into the ground in the opening minute of the second quarter at Optus Stadium on Sunday, with Duggan hitting the back of his head and immediately heading to the bench with trainers.

Is Charlie in trouble for this tackle?
Liam Duggan is taken from the field after a Charlie Cameron tackle drove his head into the ground
With both arms pinned, Cameron used his bodyweight to drive Duggan to ground and the premiership defender looked dazed as he made his way off before being substituted out of the game due to concussion.
The incident has been graded careless, severe impact and high contact, which has triggered a three-week ban.
The Lions forward was staring at a one-game suspension earlier in the year for a tackle on Melbourne's Jake Lever, but Brisbane argued successfully to have the ban overturned due to Cameron's "good character".
The Tribunal used "exceptional and compelling circumstances" to downgrade the charge, citing Cameron's clean playing record and off-field character assessments.

The incident has also been graded careless, severe impact and high contact, which is a three-week ban.

Toby tackle leaves Taranto dazed as Tiger leaves field

On the Gold Coast, Davies was sighted for his clumsy run-in with Port's Lachie Jones in the opening quarter.
The Power defender stood over a loose ball and was about to pick it up when Davies clattered into him at high speed, with Jones hitting the turf immediately before being escorted from the field. He failed a head injury assessment test and was substituted out of the game with concussion.
It was Davies' first game back in the senior team since round 11 after some strong VFL form.
