is a crowd favourite and one of the best young players in the competition. The QBE Sydney Swans Academy graduate won the 2018 AFL Mark of the Year award, was selected in the AFL Players’ Association’s 22Under22 team in two of his eligible four years and played his 100th senior game in 2019. Heeney can be used in the midfield, forward line – where he booted four goals in star teammate Lance Franklin’s absence in Round 20 last year – or as a loose man in defence.

The VFL still run the league

I mean I’d have no issue if both were a week and I recon we all would be the same soft yes but at least it would be consistent

 

[rustycrate]

Heeney'sactions were a football act. This new rule is going to penalise players playing with good intent and innocuous events are going to get themsuspended.

I can see players, in future, in Heeney's position deciding to dive at the grappling and play for the free rather than take the risk of fending and being suspeneded.

That may be an unintended consequence of the AFL introducing an inane rule.

 

[zyzzbruh]

That was it, that's all he had to say.

The vision does not show Heeney tried to fend. Can they prove it?

Heeney was trying to break free, he never fended or pushed away and should not be intentional

How our own team has missed what the definition of intentional is is just bizzare

Exactly. And in the act of manoeuvring because Webster all of a sudden started falling, heeneys hand flung backwards because there was all of a sudden no resistance where he expected there to be.

Absolute butchery

 

[Mister B]

The sad thing is, based on what the chair has said that he is reading the rule any push off, fend off or don’t argue is a strike based on this rule. I guarantee you, not only will this not be the case but we will see multiple examples before the season is out of high contact not be considered intentional despite the ruling.

It's not going to penalise Curnow...

Do they ever penalise a Carlton “star”?

Just as likely, realising their error the AFL will change the wording so no one else is suspended for it. Except of course Heeney.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

I hope someone of ours flops and gets Cripps done for the lols

 

[TheGoatBaron]

What’s the bet something like this happens this week and its graded as careless?

Winx odds

 

[Day_night_honourer]

Still deliberating … thought it would be quicker. Hope?

Longer the better I think for us lol

I want to see players getting suspended left right and centre and seeing egg all over the faces of the clowns who brought in this inane rule.
Cleary would be a great Brownlow chance because he did not get much of a chance to get suspended.

Heeney’s actions are unreasonable going by the AFL but a high don’t argue is aok. This is where this is confusing.

 

[KingV23]

Longer the better I think for us lol

They already made their decision. They just gone for smoko lol

 

[SydneyBlood]

Appeal failed.... as expected.

 

[TheGoatBaron]

They made it before it began. This was all for show lol

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Appeal failed.... as expected.

Typical AFL

 

[Kbroome]

High don't argues are now a fine as per this ruling right? As long as they have force behind it?

 

[TheGoatBaron]

They’re perfectly fine dude

Appeal failed.... as expected.

I got more shock from a 9 volt battery from my smoke alarm

Won’t happen though. And we won’t or can’t say a thing and neither will the media.

 

[TheGoatBaron]

We failed because we asked the AFL for some common sense.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Appeal failed.... as expected.

This is probably the dumbest "challenge" we have ever done what a waste of time and money

 

[Mister B]

High don't argues are now a fine as per this ruling right? As long as they have force behind it?

Yep. But they won’t be.
