How is it possible that so many mentally disabled people work at the AFL?

Is there a more corrupt League?
Sepp Blatter sleeps 8 hours straight after watching AFL.
Wrong, he was fined as was the Hawks player who intentionally bumped him in the head straight after.
Deserved a week for the flop immediately after the high shot on ginni. Hard to imagine a greater protected species over a season than bruz

Round 19:
Friday
Incident explained – Guelfi tackle on Berry (Q3 – 11:42 to go)
The incident involving Matt Guelfi and Sam Berry from the Third Quarter of Friday night’s match between Essendon and Adelaide was assessed. Berry takes possession of the ball before Guelfi lays a tackle, rolling Berry to ground. It was the view of the MRO that Guelfi did not sling, drive or rotate Berry to ground with excessive force. The MRO did not consider that Guelfi’s actions were unreasonable in the circumstances. No further action was taken.
Incident explained – Caddy on Dawson (Q3 – 02:21 to go)
The incident involving Nate Caddy and Jordan Dawson from the Third Quarter of Friday night’s match between Essendon and Adelaide was assessed. The ball is loose in play and Dawson is pushed forward and downwards into the path of Caddy as he attempts to kick the ball off the ground. High contact is made by Caddy on Dawson. It was the view of the MRO that it was reasonable for Caddy to contest the ball in the way that he did and in the circumstances which included Dawson being pushed forward and downwards into his path. No further action was taken.
Incident explained – Keays tackle on Caldwell (Q4 – 16:40 to go)
The incident involving Ben Keays and Jye Caldwell from the Fourth Quarter of Friday night’s match between Essendon and Adelaide was assessed. Caldwell gathers a loose ball following a boundary throw in and is tackled by Keays with his right arm. Caldwell is able to get his left arm down to protect his fall and reduce the force of any impact. It is the view of the MRO that Keays exercised his duty of care in executing the tackle. Accordingly, in the view of the MRO, Keay’s actions were not unreasonable in the circumstances. No further action was taken.
Saturday

Ryan veers away from Stocker to avoid him but Stocker stumbles and accelerates forward and downward into Ryan’s path. Ryan braces for contact and a collision ensues. It was the view of the MRO that Ryan did not elect to bump and his actions were not unreasonable in the circumstances. No further action was taken.

Welcome to life as a Swannie.
We’ve had nothing from the AFL since COLA - even had to keep the Franklin recruitment a secret.

Here’s the punch line - Blakey didn’t even get a free.
Since when can you have a 1 person melee?
When one person instigates it and everyone else is trying to break it up.
Two players wrestling is just two players wrestling.
A third player joining in is engaging in a melee. The first two players don't cop it.
But isnt wrestling also a fineable offence?
Depends on if the AFL thinks the wrestle met the magical threshold for reportable offence or not.
The point being if players join in, its only the players who push the number of participants above the amount to be a melee that get fined for Engaging in a melee.
Sweet fined for Oliver's flop, but nothing for Pickett for the intentional, high strike that caused a free kick reversal in the final quarter.
