New MRP system

The AFL has announced that the MRP system has been reviewed and a new system will be introduced in season 2015.

Low level offences, such as suspensions that drew 125 demerit points in season 2014, will now result in fines, as much as $1500, ($1000 with a guilty plea).

AFL reporter Travis King has said "much easier system to understand. No carryover points + less suspensions a good thing"

Personally I remain in favour for carry over points in some form, even if only if cited for the same action.

AFL trying to create a fairer system or just wanting to line their pockets...?

I agree for certain offences. High level stuff...but not for tickling someone

Will be a lot of happy players out there that would have carried points Into the 2015 season that don't have to worry about it now

I rolled my eyes as soon as i read the thread topic.

AFL tribunal!!!!
please define the difference between low, medium, high and severe impact!!

Heres an idea. Why dont they have about 10 blokes in panel.. They all vote on how many weeks they think that particular offence should be. Then just work out what the average is and give them that...

Saves any of that grey area crap...

you can't define it. The problem with all of this is that is still calls for offences to be pigeon holed...and no two offences are really ever the same. However if the main point of debate is the seriousness of the impact then I think that's a step forward.
