How many for a full blown *smile* who was looking at him while throwing a cheap punch. Any less than 6 weeks and its a disgrace and further underlines the corruption of the AFL

So let's line these two incidents up.
Houli has been in the game for over a decade with a totally clean record.
Bugg for half the time with a filthy record.
Houli is trying to run on to create play, and in an attempt to break an illegal hold, is unfortunate enough to hit the sweet spot on Lamb's head, which quite possibly has more sweet spots than your nan's Pavalova.
Bugg is in a push and shove match with Mills for the first 5 mins of the game, and then makes a decision to punch him in the jaw. No suggestion of either player trying to get involved in the play.
Play both videos in normal time and Houli has very little time to assess the situation. He's just trying to run on and in a split second decision swings an arm back.
Bugg and Mills are testing their strength (a bout as anticipated as Goldy Locks vs Shirly Temple). Bugg has time to consider how far he's going to take things and decides to throw a hook to the jaw.
If Houli's is worth 4, then Bugg has to be looking at a minimum of 6.
This is where the AFL's "manifestly inadequate" stane on Houli will be seen for what it really is, a knee jerk reaction to te media circus.
If he get's the same as Houli then the AFL is absolutely kidding itself, and might as well bring the biscuit and join the two tossers.
That's my take regardless of what the schizophrenic banana might think.

Yes he didtigerlove said:No he didn't. Unless he has eyes in the side of his head. People need to learn anatomy.
Look more like the bone side of the forearm.Kaelan said:Sick of reading how Houli got him with an elbow, not even close was the fleshy bit of the palm just got him flush and dropped him like a sack of spuds

All I see is his head turn as he swings, he would have seen as he hit not before. Slow mo is not reality. It makes it look like some one has time they don't really have.Bill James said:
