ever I violently attacked & seriously wounded a stranger for no reason - apart from "severe regret" i would wish I was an @AFL player . @Richmond_FC think a violent assault can be punished with some loss of income and " oh this doesnt meet our standards".

The magistrate has effectively doubled the Richmond player’s suspension, and exposed the AFL for failing to read the play in terms of community sentiment on the case.

The public has lost confidence. Drivers touting, refusing short fares, and declining to use meters have driven passengers away. I saw it first-hand at the Australian Open.
