Not defending him here, but I don't actually think it was a gouge. He had his hand on his face and his fingers were on the eye (obviously not great) but there was no gouging motion there, it was a flat hand on the face. Based on the punishment (or lack of) that others have had I think he can consider himself a bit unlucky. I've seen Ablett and McGuire do worse for Leeds and get away with it.
The position of his hand is concerning to me. His fingers are unusually together near the eye rather than spread. I think it was deliberate.
