Schneider

All class. Great to see him out there. Beautiful kick. Think he may miss next week though. Not sure about his record. Pretty silly by him regardless.

[Milne]

A bit of experience was sorely missed. He was a great kick tonight.

Yep. If he has a record it may cost a week. I'm thinking he'll get off though.

Pity injury so often catches up with him. He creates space as good as Dal does.

[BigMart]

Started rusty, exploded in the second, in and out after HT

Love to know who his (non) opponent in the second?

One thing is for sure, if he touches it... A saints player will next... Generally in space

[Con Gorozidis]

Started rusty - bt worked his way into and ended up really turning the game in our direction when it was on the line.

[desertsaint]

Very impressed with his game. Led the drive back in the second quarter and kept on going. Just hope he can stay injury free for the rest of the year.

[dragit]

Pure class and footy smarts, you'd love to see the ball in his hands if you were a team mate.

[saint-stu]

It's easy to forget about this guy with all his injury problems, but he was fantastic. He is so clever and precise, really hurts the opposition.

[Griggsy]

Surely insufficient force to warrant a report. How long was the player down for.

Not long, but when your system is full of so many drugs strange reactions can occur. The MRP should take that into account.

[8856brother]

One week. Drive you crazy.

[plugger66]

One week. Drive you crazy.

Very unlucky if that is the case. looked below the contact required to make a charge. Stupid though and must of had carry over points surely. Still dont understand why players do these trhings with cameras on them.

This is what makes Schneider so incredibly valuable. Whenever he gets the footy, we're usually still in possession and closer to goal afterwards. It's why I'm a big fan of Schneider and why I don't rate Jones.

Adam Schneider, St Kilda, has been charged with a Level Two striking offence (125 demerit points, one-match sanction) for striking Mark Baguley, Essendon, during the second quarter of the Round Five match between St Kilda and Essendon played at Etihad Stadium on Saturday April 19, 2014.

In summary, due to his previous poor record, his one-match sanction must remain at one match, even with an early plea.

Based on the video evidence available and a medical report from the Essendon Football Club, the incident was assessed as intentional conduct (three points), low impact (one point) and body contact (one point). This is a total of five activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level Two Offence, drawing 125 demerit points and one-match sanction. He has a bad record of 93.75 demerit points carried over within the last 12 months, increasing the penalty to 218.75 points and a two-match sanction. An early plea reduces the sanction by 25 per cent to 164.06 demerit points and a one-match sanction.

[Old Mate]

A week for that what a joke

[chook23]

was a silly action................have seen others deemed reckless/negligent not intentional......

need his class

disappointing from a team leader

[kosifantutti]

Baguley should be booked for faking. Slowest reaction ever to a punch.

The intentional maybe because it was off the ball. I think they changed that so it had to be intentional. Im sure there are others who would know for sure though. But agree. Why would he even do it. Lenny has been reported a few times but not for what you would class as just stupid actions.

[dragit]

Would have been deemed an act of warriors competitiveness from Hodge.

[chook23]

in other findings Douglas straight to tribunal..................

wish sh.thead Merrett was straight to tribunal for his deliberate dog of an elbow to the face.

Sh.t system had Scneider carrying over 93 points..............as well

[8856brother]

Glass nearly killed a bloke and got one week also. System working like a well oiled machine. Baker would have got 8 weeks for the Glass incident.

Medical report from Essendon? - surely they didn't report Baguley as having suffered some kind of injury/impact from that contest.

[Old Mate]

Anyone see the tomahawks hit on Langford? Based on this precedent he will get 2-3 weeks

[dragit]

What about S Thompson on cloke?

Given what has been let go this season with force below that required to constitute a striking charge it is another disgraceful assessment by the MRP. No doubt Schneider was silly but there is no way in hell that should attract a report. It makes the Gehrig hit on Cloke years ago look like a knockout punch.
But, no doubt, our forum fool will leap to the defence of the AFL spouting about how hard done by we are as supporters and generally telling us all how to think!

And now he risks an extra week by fighting the spurious charge. Well played, MRP...Well played.
