The man himself just posted a photo on his socials in a hospital bed. -
Trac should have had NO say in it. He looked like he was shot he was in that much pain. Who cares that his adrenaline said "I wanna play I'll be fine"? How many players get knocked out and want to return to play? Most. The decision should be totally out of their hands. This is why we have team doctors. Imagine if he copped another hit!
Disgraceful mismanagement Should have gone straight to hospital. Poor thing I cannot believe he was allowed back on the field.
ANB is the most disciplined and unselfish player in probably the entire competition. He is the only player on our list capable of executing a heavy tag to absolute perfection. I would play Viney more as a half forward when Nibbler is in the middle, to counterbalance that defensive minded attack that we miss when ANB isn’t there.
Perhaps the pain of the supporters is more pronounced than the pain of the club at the incident. We aren’t pragmatic, we are emotional. Players and coaches can’t afford to be. I would have been fine if we ignored him and won. But we [censored] the bed AND we were unnecessarily friendly to him. A kick in the guts to the supporters and most importantly to poor Gus. Hope he’s enjoying his trip and didn’t watch it!
We are still lacking in basic skills. Yes we are playing better contested footy, but we cannot execute simple handballs or kicks, and we have lost all ability to defend the turnover. And we are 10 down in clearances with Pies missing De Goey, Mitchell and Pendelbury!!! We are playing soft football.
