If the tribunal decide either in this case, (or any other report that goes to the tribunal for that matter), that a fine IS the appropriate punishment, do they factor in that the average AFL listed player is on 10 times the salary of the average SANFL listed player when they determine how much the fine is?

Are you daring to suggest that the $200 fine Podsiadly got won't deter him from doing something stupid again?
That seemed so bizarre, since when have fines been acceptable punishments when found guilty of striking? It was like 'we don't want to suspend him but it was worth more than a reprimand, so let's add a bit more to the punishment.' Who knows the logic of tribunals but it wouldn't surprise me if they gave him that fine as they knew he was going to miss at least a game through injury anyway so a suspension meant nothing to him. I don't think $200 meant a whole lot more though.

Pales in comparison to some of the stuff I've read from Port supporters on social media about this, mate. Just wow.
