Geelong going 0-3 was something of a panacea.
Here is the Martin "precedent."
Understandable Cats fans would want him rubbed out for kicking contested goals.

Nobody needs Martin rubbed out. He is a very ordinary footballer now.
I tried to tell some new Japanese tourists watching footy at the bulldogs game “ there are a small fanbase who say that’s the GOAT”.. you should have seen the disbelief and laughter they directed at these people.
I was told “I am dishonoring game” saying such things

we all know its based on the outcome. Umpire was fine so no case to answer
If umpire was concussed, 100% straight to tribunal Lunch style

Gave an umpire a cuddle, which I agree is reprehensible.
8 weeks.

I'm sure it would have been a suspension in the past, but I'm not sure exactly what the rules are governing contact are. As far as I can tell, there no clear rules about what constitutes prohibitive umpire contact, but Michael Christian said in 2018 that this was the interpretation they would run with going forward:
I don't think any of those would apply to Cameron, and I can't find any provisions for "careless" umpire contact, which suggests that he's probably going to be fine unless they decide to invent a new precedent on the spot.
EDIT:
No wait, I found it on p. 7 of the tribunal guidelines. "Careless Contact with an Umpire" is a $1500 fine for a first offence.

Probably gets a fine. There is a fixed financial sanction for Careless Contactwith an umpire which is $1500 for a first offence. This is absolutely careless on Cameron's part as without an over-exuberant celebration or actually looking at the field rather than the crowd whislt celebrating, he doesn't make contact with the ump.
$1500 fine should be what he gets.

Why would my illustrious posting history cause Cats fans to be trolls? I don't understand GE.
Can someone explain to me, apart from the teams involved, why this incident has 50 replies and a three page thread and a deliberate knee to a defenceless player in a ruck contest, which the AFL has already said they want out of the game, has no thread?

Ok so Cats fan claiming Martin is not the GOAT and quotes Japanese tourists who have never seen the sport before as authority. That really adds to the "no" side of that debate GC.
Reckless, high, umpire was injured and clearly traumatised. That Western Bulldogs guy, (Todd Curley) got 4 weeks in 2006 for accidentally bumping an umpire. No harm done. Greatest travesty against commonsense that was.
Cameron should get 2 weeks at least.

Did he deliberately touch an umpire by cuddling him? This is getting worse...

Looks like the umps knee cops him right in the nuts..
every bloke knows there always that 5 second delay between the nuts being struck and the pain hitting!..
Just a great big laugh that a player who is so average out there is considered GOAT by a few. The bloke is lucky to be a B grader anymoreOk so Cats fan claiming Martin is not the GOAT and quotes Japanese tourists who have never seen the sport before as authority.

This was not some light contact the player caused carelessly though Groc. He straight out flattened the ump and there was extremely high potential to cause injury.
In simple terms, I think it's because you are a Tiger flogWhy would my illustrious posting history cause Cats fans to be trolls? I don't understand GE.
