Demon Hunter fined for bizarre boundary-line antics

Demon Hunter fined for bizarre boundary-line antics

The AFL has written to all 18 golf equipment warning them in opposition to unsportsmanlike behaviour after slapping Melbourne’s Lachie Hunter with a $1500 positive for his weird boundary-line antics.

During the second quarter of Melbourne’s win over Hawthorn final week, Hunter left the Demons’ interchange space and rushed in the direction of the boundary line exterior of the interchange gates.

Hunter gestured in the direction of a Hawthorn participant who had simply taken possession on the wing, both to distract the participant or make him assume that Hunter was in play and an opportunity to sort out him.

The AFL took a dim view of the incident, labelling it as unsportsmanlike and doling out a positive to Hunter.

“Melbourne and Hunter have accepted the AFL’s sanction,” the AFL stated in an announcement.

“The AFL has written to clubs today to remind them that such actions by players stationed in the interchange area are not appropriate.”

Hunter was part of the Bulldogs’ 2016 premiership aspect and he notched 173 video games for the membership throughout 10 seasons earlier than shifting to Melbourne on the finish of final yr.

The 28-year-old has performed all 9 video games for the second-placed Demons this season, averaging 20.7 disposals and two clearances per recreation.
