GWS Giants’ Toby Greene faces scrutiny over alleged kick on Sydney Swans’ Dane Rampe



Giants skipper Toby Greene could face fresh scrutiny from the AFL after video emerged of him appearing to kick Swans opponent Dane Rampe in the groin during Friday night’s Sydney derby.

Footy Classified showed footage of Greene, who has already been suspended for one match over a strike on Isaac Heeney in the same game, throwing his foot back towards Rampe.

It is not clear whether the AFL will take action against Greene for the act. The league has been contacted for comment.

Former Giants footy director Jimmy Bartel described Greene’s action as “pretty average”.

“Kicking is a no-go, and then kicking to the groin region, throwing your legs back like that…” he said on Footy Classified.

“And this is the issue with Toby Greene, especially in big games. He sees the red mist even worse than most gentlemen, and it’s the problem.

“We will always hear from coaches about players like Toby [who say], ‘Ah, they play on the edge, they play on the edge’.

“But I can imagine when you look at the rap sheet … Yes, they’re all in big games, but they actually then hurt the Giants when they’re leading into bigger games on top of that. And they need their captain.”
