Melbourne Football Club has appealed the three-game suspension handed to Jack Trengove for engaging in rough conduct against the Adelaide Crows’ Patrick Dangerfield, during Sunday’s match at the MCG.
The hearing in front of the Appeals Board will be at 5.30pm tomorrow, Thursday May 12.
Melbourne appealed the three-game suspension on three grounds:
- the decision was so unreasonable that no Tribunal could have come to that decision having regard to the evidence;
- the classification of the level of the offence was manifestly excessive;
- the sanction imposed was manifestly excessive.
