A gold plated plonker whose smug face is begging to be pushed in. And it will happen being one of the most disliked footballers in the AFL >
Whilst i agree with many of the posts about Greene being a thoroughly unlikable player there is no doubt to me he is also a seriously good footballer
The job Grimes did on him in the prelim went a long way to winning us that game, especially in the first half when we were up against it for a period.

He's done it again.
Gave Broad a boot to the chest. Got off with a $1,500 fine for a boot to Luke Dahlhous' face. I thought the head was sacrosanct. The guy could have lost an eye.
Now he's stuck the studs into two Sydney players.
AFL needs to address this before someone gets seriously injured.

Yep. If we saw this at a junior level you’d be ropable. Kids copy their stars. Needs to be fixed ASAP.

I just can't stand the bloke. The grub spat at Miles. Stuck his boot into how many players now? Only a matter of time before someone gets a serious injury from this type of action.
Will the AFL act? No. Might hurt their plastic team's chances.
I don't understand all the "experts" saying that there's no rules against it???Quickdraw said:
Last I checked there are rules against kicking. At the very least he should be charged with that given he is deliberately using his feet against other players???
.....and there are rules for dangerous play and misconduct.
As far as I am concerned it is kicking and kicking another player is a dog act and the fact he is kicking someone to avoid contact makes him a coward. Don’t know what he is like as a person but if he is anything like he comes across on the field(cowardly dog) then he is probably a real sh!t bloke.
The AFL will do nothing or at worst a fine if he can get away with kicking someone in the face then they will do nothing and as has been said can’t have GWS’s chances diminished.

All this crap about contact allowed in marking contest. Its only allowed if its incidental to the marking contest. Sticking your foot up into another player is not incidental to trying to get to the ball.
Simon Madden in a ruck contest many years ago got Graham Johns? Ruck from Sydaknee in the throat with the stops, if I recall it correctly. Wrecked the blokes larynx. Bit of old school footy that's still allowed that *smile* me is obviously Greene getting away with extending the stops, but also the likes of Waite n Hawkins constantly driving knees first from a long way behind at marking contests. It's one thing to use the knees to help elevate, it's altogether something else when the knees are used as a battering ram.Quickdraw said:
Most of the raised knees n feet from days gone by were used simply to protect from incoming opponents, but with the front on contact rules that have been in place for years it's almost irrelevant now unless your deliberately trying to nail someone.
