On the positive side for the TV watchers, we have probably the best commentary line-up possible right now:
Hudson, Dunstall, Riewoldt
None of them commentating their own team - amazing!
He has to roll the player as he's tackling him, or let go and concede that he can't tackle him safely. A strong enough player can hold the falling player in the tackle also.
I'm in the "accidents happen in footy" camp, but that was avoidable.
I reckon the Eagles are playing all right. Some of you just reckon smashings are all the result of one side. The other has to roll over too, and this one hasn't.
Kellie Underwood described Sparrow as being "concussed" by the hit he sustained early in the game. He's out there now.
There's inaccurate and then there's just plain irresponsible. Don't describe a player as being concussed without a shred of evidence that he is.
Just punch it through Dogga. Steven May giving him what-for about that.
EDIT - or just let it go through!
And he's learned and is now running away from the defensive 50 like Cale Morton runs away from Brendon Lade.
