From that Age article:
North Melbourne legend Wayne Carey agreed the penalty should be harsh, but feared it might not be given: "right now, the match review panel are probably at their most soft".
However Carey also acknowledged that the tribunal system could be under pressure to make a stand this week given AFL football operations manager Mark Evans publicly stated his belief that Adam Cooney's one-match ban for bumping was too lenient last week.
Don't worry fellas, they've got Silvagni there to crucify, thus over-correcting for the Cooney stuff up, so they'll be able to let Masten off nice and lightly.
