I think it was i8 that questioned earlier why an early plea is rewarded - it doesn't really make sense.

Saves the AFL time and money, this is the only reason I can think of.

My old man had a good suggestion and said that if a player is cited and the MRP judge their total points tally to be over 500 then no discounts should be applied - early plea, good record - because if it gets that high they've done something fairly serious and should wear the full penalty.

Also, "good behaviour" should be expected, not necessarily rewarded.



Yep Patrick smith was on about this with KB the other day. (I know, I was shocked too!)
but, I thought his idea was great.
If it's head high, and causes damage..then no early plea. No good behaviour credits. No nothing. Just the full penalty. It makes sense, unless it was accidental.

So, the 500 point thingy makes great sense.

It should have been 5 weeks, served out. Maybe4 he'll suffer a guilt hammy?
