It's footy after no footy has been played for months.

Give me shite footy over no footy any day of the week. I am pathetically hanging out for Saturday. So sad.

My opinion is that Conca's only intention was to block to allow him to take off and get a 5 m break on Adams. There was clearly no malice nor did it appear that he wanted to hurt him. I am not suggesting he didn't expect there to be contact, but I am thinking about the longer term repercussions. If a player, who is nowhere near the ball isn't responsible for looking where he is running, every player on the field now needs to ensure that any player he makes contact with is aware that the contact was coming before he bumps. The onus on the bumper has gone too far.

I remember when football was a mans game .

The onus on the bumper has gone too far.

Fair points, I guess the same can be said about tackling though.
