I would've thought it makes no difference, how much more money can be made on a sell out GF anyway, doesn't matter who is playing surely.

Appeal will be Thursday night.
Let’s hope that this time they don’t get a panel of ex Collingwood players.
Not a great look to have one of the panel members celebrating with the Pies in the changerooms after a win one week and then being responsible for hanging one of their opponents.

Wakelin didn't hang him. He was already suspended. They just upheld it.

What club did Michael Christian play for again?
He was the bloke that initially suspended him and then the panel that upheld it contained Paul Williams and Shane Wakelin. No Collingwood bias there at all :)

Why didn't the AFL just suspend him for being a f****** idiot for the 2nd week in a row..............................just call it "bringing the game into disrepute".

I'm certain that he done similar to Hodge earlier in the game too, it would've been epic if it was late in the game and GWS were over the line, Hodgey would've gone MMA style at him.

Greene WILL be playing this week, you can't let him off with last weeks carry-on but suspend him for this weeks, they are separate isolated incidents, whether we like him or not, that bit is not quite right.

An AFL great has questioned why a former Collingwood star, who was celebrating in the club rooms after a finals win less than two weeks ago, was one of the Tribunal members for Toby Greene’s appeal.

Greene surprisingly failed to have his one-game ban for making contact with Lachie Neale’s eye region overturned last night, despite the overwhelming vibe of those in the rooms and leading up to the hearing being the GWS star would escape and be able to play in Saturday’s preliminary final against Collingwood.

But now conspiracy theorists are running rampant after social media users pointed out that Tribunal member Shane Wakelin, who played 158 games for Collingwood, was in the Pies’ rooms after their qualifying final win over Geelong.


Asked by commentator Brian Taylor what he thought of the game, Wakelin said: “Just brilliant. I thought they’d run out of gas in that last 15 minutes but to their credit, they’ve played like that all year and they were excellent again. A couple of weeks off and hopefully they can go one step further this year.”

While no-one is suggesting anything less than professional happened, Essendon great Tim Watson asked why another member of the pool of Tribunal jurors wasn’t used.

“Do you think they went to the shallow end of the pool or they went to the deep end?” he said on SEN Breakfast .


Herald Sun reporter Sam Edmund explained: “We’re being a bit silly with it, but this is Roaming Brian after the first final.

“Shane Wakelin was actually in the Collingwood rooms … perhaps it’s just bad optics, as Gill McLachlan would say.

“I’m not saying they’re anything other than super professional, but I’m saying it’s a bad look. If you’re on an independent Tribunal, and to be in the rooms of a team that is contending at the very pointy end of the season (is a bad look).”

Greene and the Giants will appeal the decision.

Hardly could be called a 'independent' tribunal.

Seems you can't have any previous experience with an AFL club and hold any position in the AFL anymore...

It's a pre-requisite, you just shouldn't be placed in the position of rubbing out players when they are playing against your beloved club for a spot in the GF, huge difference.

Or maybe not hang out in the rooms and hang an opponent two weeks later.

I can't stand Greene and GWS but this is absolute nonsense!!! Difficult to suspend for a week when the so called “victim” says it didn’t happen!! You also can’t suspend someone because they have had lots of infringements in the past. It can only be based on the evidence for this one.
