Hopefully the arrogant little prick’s season is finished, after his attack to Bontempelli’s head and eyes.
Dog act.
Video is here if you haven’t already seen it.

Brilliant footballer but dead set idiot. Will not only hurt his team but also should result in a reduced contract or strictly performance based. What other club would want take him on? He comes with a lot of baggage.
Got off TOO lightly as the intent was to eye gouge.. Nasty piece of meat & wouldn’t miss him if he was run over by a truck.. Tribunal got it WRONG. Gutless pricks.
Grundy also thumped Dangerfield in the stomach but because Danger got up & kept playing he was fined $3000..
ALL punches or misconduct in finals (irrespective of force) should be a 2 weeks suspension..
Stuff this petty cash fines..
There’s playing on the edge, then there’s dog acts!!!
Toby was fantastic up at the Gabba tonight. Probably BOG think Toby and the rest of them will challenge Collingwood.
Good news from afl.com:
Toby had a QC and still lost.. Next appeal should be with George Pell. Both losers but well financed for appeals..
One positive to come out of this for Greene.
If GWS win this weekend, at least he won’t be at risk of being reported again for another stupid act.
I think the media have lost the plot. From what I have read, they make him out to be a hard nut that’s a rock hard player. Fact is, that he keeps getting done for piss weak gutless dog acts. Doesn’t take a hero to stick your fingers in a bloke’s eyes or to gouge him with your boot studs etc. He’s a maggot that the game could do without.
Totally agree 58, am sick of hearing about him as a “hard” and “tough” nut. Just desserts.
Seems as though it’s “like father, like son” with these gutless acts. Head butting a female police officer???
Remember the good old days when you went to a GF and celebrated a win or bemoaned a loss without the violence of today?
Even yesterday - I think it was in the 2nd quarter - he seemed to be far too close to a Richmond players face when they were both on the ground, and the ball was well away.
The C7 commentators made reference to it, and even highlighted it couple of times. Perhaps he had 2nd thoughts just in time.
Showed again today if he just plays footy, he’s is in the top 5 players in the comp.
Let’s hope he can keep his fingers to himself, because the arrogant little prick is worth watching when he is in full flight.
Massive call. Martin, Dangerfield, Fyfe, Grundy, Pendlebury, Cripps come to mind that are better players just off the top of my head.
