Ryder 2 weeks for standing still.

Smith Head butt 2weeks.

AFL making no sense again.

Smith should have got a month.
They're not going to suspend one of their more marketable players for too long. You reckon some list clogger would have only gotten one week for punching someone in the jaw?
Wouldn't define Ryder as a list clogger, but still a deliberate head butt like that for only 2 weeks suspension sends the wrong message. And even after the first headbutt, he didn't make contact for his likening so he made sure to connect with the second attempt! The AFL would be thinking long and hard about appealing this decision. Agree with @Vicwood its at least 3/4 weeks, otherwise we have stepped back in time to the 70's/80's Buddy got a 1 week suspension for a face slap but a headbutt only gets 2 weeks.

I never claimed that of Ryder, was just a comment about players in general, wasn't even thinking about Ryder.
Agree with everything else you said.

North Melb.
My favourite from him earlier in the game was something like “this is North Melbourne’s first game in Darwin in their history as a football club” … ***!
He is the worst.

This player has craft, that player has craft. Great craft.

I imagine him sitting in his hotel room coming up with one liners and then spending the whole game trying to shove them in regardless of if they fit or not. Like "Big DAY out" today when Day kicked a goal

"Day having a HUGE Day" after kicking for goal with his third possession for the game close to half time. He just had to get his dumb pun in there. Bloke is a termite.
