So over the weekend there was an incident involving two AFL players, where one ended up choking the other. To my surprise it has made the news in the USA and the bleacher report (link below) Facebook post has over 800 comments at the time of writing. What really surprised me is that there are so many Americans saying that Lake (the choker) should be charged with attempted murder. This is way over the top in my opinion and in the opinion of just about everyone who has watched the sport. I reckon that at worst he will get a four week suspension, it wouldn't surprise me if it was less.
What do you guys from around the world think of this incident and how long should he be suspended for in your opinion?
