One charge laid.
One other matter explained in detail.
Dustin Martin can accept $1500 sanction, careless contact with umpire J Mollison.
Aaron Sandilands cleared contact P Cripps. Sandilands placed a block on Cripps. It was the view of the Match Review Officer the contact was below the force required for a charge to be laid.

It’s all very confusing. Ed Curnow cops a week for intentional contact, Hawkins 1 week, May fine, CCurnow off. Looked like Dusty deliberately touched the ump to me..
Mark Stevens @7StevoAFL
Fine the correct result for Dusty, but confused at how we got there. Under season rules/parameters, assumed Dusty would be sent to tribunal a la Steven May. From there, up to tribunal to decide ...

The AFL has changed the provisions surrounding intentional contact with umpires, with Richmond superstar Dustin Martin controversially fined after being charged with only careless contact.
Although the league won't officially change the current guidelines until the end of the season, cases of umpire contact will now be dealt with differently than at the start of the year.

Unbelievable, but totally predictable inconsistency. Can't recall being more apathetic about the game. We may watch players running around in footy gear, but it's guys in suits that are deciding the bounce of the ball.
Just to be clear, it's not just this decision, or anything to do with the player involved.
(Sorry if I've overdone it. It all seems to me representative of the way the game is being administered. A bit tired of it.)

I was going to go jjk this week. I figured Sydney would keep him quiet and then he'd be good to go from now on. Saw a lot of the game, looked the case was that he was just getting hassled a lot. Didn't know about underlying achilles issue though.
So... Looks like the Chad is entering my team instead. Yikes! Complete team, the Chad has versatility with mid/fwd connection... But... Not really trustworthy considering he likes to disappear up forward? in games so often.
Can't really afford anything else without another downgrade attached.

Probably as expected but JJK did not train today.
Kennedy kicked two majors but limped through the fourth quarter after receiving treatment in the rooms, and coach Adam Simpson revealed the dual Coleman medallist is no certainty to line up against the Bombers.
"He got a knock on the knee. Structurally, it's all good. It's just how he pulls up and can we get him up for training tomorrow?" Simpson told Channel Seven.
"We'll give him every chance to play. We'll see how he pulls up. He's a bit sore, but there's no structural damage, which is a great thing for us."
Kennedy, Darling and full-back Tom Barrass (back) were absent from training on Monday, although Barrass completed some individual work before the main session got underway at Subiaco Oval.

Anyone with Simpson at R3?
Adam Curley @AdamCurleyMedia
Rory Lobb out 4-6 weeks with fracture in back from win over Suns. Shocking luck @AFLcomau GWS were positive when he was cleared of punctured lung, further tests showed damage to thoracic spine.
Daniel Lloyd also about 4-6 with knee. Toby Greene has turned s corner according to Leon Cameron but still likely needs 3 weeks of training before he plays. Tom Scully still 5-6 away.
