Yeah it was a bit late and a bit more forceful but not really any different than the one pendles copped ???

I may have had about 10 canadian clubs at the pub right now and come home to find out that fyfey has been hit for 2 weeks for his hit on riski

Ok so if you watch 'Charged' on AFL.com they explain why Fyfe & Taylor Hunt get weeks for their bumps... There's a new rule in the Tribunal Guide that says a player is responsible for any head clash if they choose to bump rather than tackle.

Not saying I agree with the new rules as it takes physicality out of the game, however if the rules are there then that is what Fyfe gets.. :(

Interesting Fyfe not challenging when there's nothing to lose. Guess they just think it's a done deal and wasting time to challenge...

From the report:
"Nathan Fyfe, Fremantle, has been charged with a Level Two Engaging in Rough Conduct Offence (225 demerit points, two-match sanction), for engaging in rough conduct against Michael Rischitelli, Gold Coast, during the third quarter of the Round Two match between Fremantle and Gold Coast, at Patersons Stadium on Saturday March 29, 2014.

In summary, due to his previous poor record, his two-match sanction must remain at two matches, even with an early plea."

There's no penalty for an unsuccessful challenge, just you lose the reduction they give you for an early plea. But because Fyfe was a naughty boy last year he gets no credit for copping to it, hence there is also no risk in challenging it.

I don't think there was much to argue in Fyfe's case so they didn't bother. Not saying I agree with the rules (it's a crap rule tbh) but it stipulates if you bump instead of tackle, you are responsible for any head clash etc, so Fyfe really didn't have much to argue I'm afraid :(
