Crows Season Riccuto-ted?

The question is not will he be suspended, but for how long?

Whats his previous form - I realise a Brownlow last year may help the cause, but he was off the ground, smashed a bloke in the melon with a forearm, and should get at least one week, if not two...

But is it striking, or charging, or reckless contact or what? This should be fun and games for a confused tribunal...

Bout the only good thing from a disappointing afternoon, i think he'll get 3 and 2 with an early plea, the tribunal must take into account the young bloke had his eyes on the ball and is now out for the season.

I said it some years ago after he cleaned up Kemp in a similar fashion.

Thug!!!

The interesting part about the incident is that Selwood was playing on Ricciuto and, until that point, honours were somewhat even. One must consider the intent.

Unbelievably he only gets 1 week, it was only graded as negligent as opposed to reckless. Very lucky boy indeed.

1 week! I wonder what the G Train thinks of that one.

Most inconsistant suspension of the year.

Byron gets suspended for a fair hit, and the Roo gets a week for smashing a bloke into the next day... dodgy dodgy decision...

Ye old Tribunal strikes again. Very surprised at that.
