Fans poke fun at ‘shattered’ Isaac Heeney after Sydney Swans fail to overturn AFL ban

Sydney superstar Isaac Heeney has vowed to make the AFL season “a special one” despite his Brownlow Medal hopes being dashed by suspension. Heeney failed in his bid to overturn a one-match ban for striking St Kilda’s Jimmy Webster at the AFL appeals board on Thursday night.

Isaac Heeney releases statement after AFL ban stands. The 28-year-old was among the leading Brownlow contenders but is now ineligible for the league’s highest individual honour this season. “I’m obviously extremely disappointed with that result,” Heeney said in a video statement released by the club. “It’s pretty shattering, to be honest.” Heeney will miss Sydney’s clash with North Melbourne at the SCG on Saturday as the ladder leaders attempt to arrest a two-match losing skid.
