If Hall is the boxer people say he is then his left and right probably aren't as far apart as you are making it out to be

The left hits harder (if his right handed) because the left would have less control. FACT!

A king hit is where an un-suspecting victim is hit from behind. This didn't happen in this case.

Hall over re-acted to the niggling and belted him - that's not a king hit.

I am not saying he should have done it either - stupid act on Bazz's behalf.

Moose

King hit is any unprovoked or unsuspecting attack - which is exactly what this was.

Doesn't have to hit him from behind to be a king hit

Righto, give him 11 weeks for 110%.

I'll let you into a secret - it's all getting a bit technical with boxing experts weighing in, but I just want his case delayed until after his hand heals so that the [censored] serves time when it matters - not when it's concurrent with an injury.

6 to 8 would be my guess.....

I was not too far away from that at the game last night, and it was awful to watch, and the crowd actually booed him.

Which for a Sydney crowd to boo Barry Hall, I thought I saw pigs flying backwards!!!

At least the ground got its own back when he clonked and opened up his head on the polls around the edge.

After watching it about 20 times on YouTube, I reckon he is looking at minimum 8 weeks!

The AFL does not want these sorts of images being seen anymore!

Young kids you want to grow up and play footy don't want to see this (altho they will cop it in the suburban based comps), but it is more the parents of the young lads who, after seeing stupid [censored] like that, stop their sons from playing footy!

The AFL will slam Hall for this!

They are already worried that soccer is taking off..... This will be a massive suspension!

In fact I have even convinced myself it will be 10+ weeks now!

He doesn't get the name "Big Bad Barry" for nothing! :wacko:

Totally agree with everything you've written here. I tried to compose something like this last night but was too shocked by what I'd seen to be able to think straight. I reckon the AFL will rightfully make an example out of this.

And to Moose who thinks the "biff" should be brought back to footy, why don't you go and watch some Saturday Amateur crap where that [censored]'s the norm. Leave the AFL to the best and FAIREST players in the land.

I'm with you. Although one cost Miller 2 or 3 from memory in 2006. He was in form too and never really recovered after coming back through the two's.

Not sure if it's already been mentioned, but Miller's been booked again for 'alleged rough conduct' against Daniel Pratt.

I reckon he might actually get done for a week with his record, which is annoying cos I think he's playing alright at the moment.

Thoughts? On the bump, not on Miller's form. :)

A regular stupid act of misguided aggression that he has done before and it will cost him about 2 weeks.

Makes you wonder about those posters who say Miller should be more aggressive. Pity he cant distinguish the player from the ball

Hall will be out for 6 weeks with a broken wrist so really he should get 16 weeks or he will get away it. The more appropriate sentence would be for the AFL to force the Swans to delist him and have us pick him up in the PSD that will teach him to be stupid.

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
