BOTH Joel Selwood and Toby Greene were fined by the MRO for misconduct and striking respectively in round fourteen.<\/p>\n
Both are $3000 lighter in the pocket [pending an early plea], but does that sanction disincentivise them from doing it again?<\/p>\n
Garry Lyon pushed hard for fines to be introduced for these incidents in the past, but believes the AFL has not gone hard enough.<\/p>\n
\u201c[I didn\u2019t call for] $2000 fines, it was $10,000,\u201d Lyon told SEN Breakfast. \u201c[$2000 fines], they don\u2019t make any difference.<\/p>\n
\u201cEssentially what they\u2019re saying is listen, if you want to write us a cheque for $3000 you can punch him in the guts.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt shouldn\u2019t be that way. If you want to punch him in the guts, write me a cheque for $15,000 and same with Joel [Selwood].\u201d<\/p>\n
Selwood was sanctioned twice for incidents during Friday night\u2019s win over the Western Bulldogs.<\/p>\n
Greene meanwhile received his fine for a punch to the body of Carlton\u2019s Nic Newman.<\/p>\n
