‘Red mist': New video shows Greene kicking Rampe
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.'

Saints great Nicky Winmar in court over alleged assault on woman
AFL great Nicky Winmar has appeared in court after he was charged over the alleged assault of a woman. Neil Elvis 'Nicky' Winmar, 59, beamed into the Melbourne Magistrates' Court on Tuesday charged with two counts of assault and one count of choking, strangling or suffocating a person without lawful excuse.

The two-time All Australian footballer appeared wearing a blue jumper and glasses and spoke only to confirm he could see and hear the court. His lawyer, Tessa Theocharous, told the court Mr Winmar was on bail for the allegations, with the matter listed for a bail review. Mr Winmar has not been required to enter pleas. Picture: Jake Nowakowski Ms Theocharous said the Court Integrated Services Program had provided an 'update letter' to the court and requested the case be adjourned to allow her client to 'fully engage in case management'. 'He has only fairly recently been placed on the (bail) program,' she said. 'There is a further appointment today at court, Your Honour, so that a more fulsome plan can be prepared and Mr Winmar can engage with that.' An application to revoke Mr Winmar's bail was withdrawn by Victoria Police and his bail was extended until his next court date on August 28. Nicky Winmar played 251 AFL games over his career. Picture:. The AFL Hall of Fame inductee had a twelve-season career with St Kilda between 1987 and 1998, twice winning the club's best and fairest award. The Indigenous footballer's iconic stand against racist abuse during the 1993 season was immortalised in bronze outside Optus Stadium in Perth six years ago. The Western Australian lifted his jumper and pointed at his torso, declaring 'I'm black and I'm proud' after receiving abuse from Collingwood fans at Victoria Park.

More cash, more seats, more signs: How AFL clubs will benefit from new Marvel Stadium deal
The AFL is close to a landmark agreement with the Marvel Stadium tenants that would guarantee increased returns over the next five years. Under the long-term deal, which has not been formally signed but is all but agreed, the AFL – as the owner of Marvel Stadium – will hand Essendon, Carlton, St Kilda, the Western Bulldogs and North Melbourne sizeable increases in their guaranteed payments, extra premium seats and a higher share of signage. One estimate from a club was that they would receive an extra $63,000 per home game in guaranteed money, including signage, and the increased revenue might be about $400,000-$500,000 per year assuming average crowds. In terms of club fixtures, Carlton would have an even split between Marvel Stadium and the MCG home games over six years, alternating between a five-six and six-five split of the venues. Next year, the Blues would have six at Marvel, having had six at the MCG this year. Technically, the new deal is a six-year arrangement, counting 2025, even though this season is close to completion. It could boost income for clubs this year, depending on each clubs' specific returns. But clubs would still have to bear the higher costs as home tenant under the new deal, according to competition sources. This would offset the gains, but overall the clubs still stood to improve their returns significantly. The new deal is standard for all five tenant clubs, including Carlton, and closes the gap between what teams earn for MCG games and the AFL-owned Marvel. St Kilda, which has lobbied hard for extra games at the MCG, has been handed 10 games at Marvel Stadium for the next two years, then they would have a guarantee of nine at Docklands and one at the MCG from 2028 until 2030, with one home game left to be negotiated. The Saints confirmed to this masthead that their strong preference was for two home games at the MCG in those years.
