So what happens when you have eyes only for the ball but smack someone in the head?

Two 

 

If there is no injury or concussion, then how is it even a reportable offence?

Fox footy said that he has no issues just a bit sore in the neck area, surely its just free kick for high contact then.

If they allowed that then you could smack someone but make sure you look at the ball when you do it

Absurd

Get [censored]. Where is Chols suspension?

I know we have a track record of not challenging arguable cases. But we simply have to challenge this. Preposterous decision.

Did Chol get anything for deliberately round arming Bowey by the way? Can't see anything about it on the afl site.

Farce. Christian should be fed to the lions.

Yep. Chol's was worse & not even cited. Christian is a joke 

At least we known Christian watches the Fox footy telecast and relies on Dunstan and Derwayne's negative comments.

[censored], hope this dosen't end up with roo hesitant to hit packs full throttle

I’m confident this does not happen, he loves it

Get [censored] MRO.

Last year you let Cripps walk free to win a Brownlow.

JVR is innocent, MRO are clowns. By the way this was purely driven by the media!!!

So disappointed, another perplexing decision from MRO.

Feel like we have been on the wrong end of so many over the years. 
 

What an egregious joke. 

Utter BS. 

Had Ballard not been accidentally hit in the head earlier in the game by Pickett’s knee (and allowed to continue by the Suns), I’d be willing to bet he wouldn’t have been injured by JVR trying to spoil. Just saying…

Wot a load of [censored] 

Off to the tribunal we go

Straight to the Supreme court.

Must challenge 

If we don’t challenge this we are simply p-weak.

No injury yet high impact.

The club has to appeal this decision. Absolute [censored] joke of a decision. The whole “took his eyes off the ball” narrative is being misinterpreted as a bad thing.. JVR clearly took a duty of care to ensure he knew where the opponent was so as to avoid punching him in the head.. The momentum of Ballard coming forward carried him into JVR’s bicep. A total football accident.
