Highlights the glaring problem with the current system.
In a way the MRP's hands were tied.
If the field umpire had reported him the MRP, within the points classification structure, had to assign what they did to the incident, i dont think the MRP is allowed to be objective or utilise common sense - the incident must be rated within the guidelines.
It was up to the club to appeal and then it was up to the tribunal to judge on common sense.
Which is a complete waste of time , resources and money.
It shows the current MRP system is too rigid and inflexible and its another of Adrian Andersons useless contributions to the sport
On the contrary, I think it shows the system works well. The MRP saves everyone time and expense fronting the tribunal (as happened before the MRP). And n the rare cases where the MRP points systems seems unfair then it can all be resolved by tuesday via an appeal to the tribunal.
