Greene to Tribunal - may miss Pies game if they win
Moderator: bbmods
Yep, he'll probably get a week so he can play us the following week.
I'm expecting he'll get off with a fine. Guaranteed. He'll get a glowing character reference. NicNat threw a guy into a fence and the AFL said at the start of the year they were going to crack down on that dangerous behaviour near the fence. Yeah he got his hair pulled, but if he played for Collingwood...
Sam Mitchell used to slide into players on the ground with his knees into their kidney/back. Always got away with it. Some players are just pricks on the ground.

^ Totally agree, not because GWS could be playing us (that's neither here nor there) but eye gouging like that is fkn dangerous!

Tribunal is a total absolute joke, a sick joke, this repeat offender thug gets off with a paltry fine, for eye gouging and slamming a players head into the turf several times, and he farking gets off, im disgusted. On radio today, every caller said least 3 weeks, some said 6, but bloody hell, he just gets a paltry fine ????? Stephenson got 10 for a small bet for Chrissakes, and hes a very fair player, but this thug gets totally off ??????
The League is a joke , a very sick joke, one rule for some, one rule for others.

Let me start by saying, this isn’t a post to rubbish TG but more to express annoyance at the sanction he was just handed. This result angers me for a few reasons but let me just ask:
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought past offences had impact on sentencing? Say, if a player has been convicted previously then in the event they offend again the penalty would be harsher?
Greene has had SIXTEEN offences (see below - sorry for length. Found this elsewhere online and wanted to show the extent of wrongdoing). No doubt he has a pattern of bad behaviour. Giving him a fine is not good enough and sends the wrong message.
Greene’s sanctions
2012: Made ineligible for the NAB AFL Rising Star after he was suspended for one match for an ugly bump on Brisbane veteran Jed Adcock.
2012: Fined $1200 for his role in a melee during Greater Western Sydney's clash with Melbourne.
2013: Cops a $1950 fine for making reckless contact with an umpire in a game against Gold Coast.
2014: Was fortunate to walk away with a one-match suspension for striking Adelaide midfielder Richard Douglas, with the offence classified as a level-three sanction.
2014: Fined another $1200 for engaging in a melee, this time against the Western Bulldogs.
2015: Hit with a $1500 fine for spitting in the direction of Richmond midfielder Anthony Miles.
2015: Another year, another $1500 fine for engaging in a melee, this time against Fremantle.
2016: Fined $1000 for misconduct, having pushed Port Adelaide youngster Brendon Ah Chee into a fence.
2017: Hit with a $1000 misconduct fine in the pre-season, having given Sam Wright a slap to the face late in the game.
2017: Fined $1000 for striking Port Adelaide midfielder Dan Houston, with the charge graded as low impact to the head.
2017: Hit with a two-match striking suspension after clipping Western Bulldogs midfielder Caleb Daniel with an extremely late spoil attempt.
2017: Forced to serve another two-match suspension after striking Richmond defender Alex Rance to the jaw with a jumper-punch.
2017: Controversially offered a $1500 misconduct fine for his 'Jackie Chan' kick to the face of Western Bulldogs forward Luke Dahlhaus.
2018: Fined $2500 for misconduct, having appeared to drop his knee into Sydney midfielder Isaac Heeney during their elimination final.
2018: Fined another $2500 for misconduct the very next week during a semi-final against Collingwood, where he was involved in a back-and-forth with midfielder Taylor Adams.
2019: Slapped with a $2000 fine for striking, having handed Melbourne midfielder Clayton Oliver a tummy tap in an off-the-ball incident
