Good point actually

Chill out old fella! It’s raw, my friend, very raw!

I don’t know, maybe he can’t play two games in a row because his leg is completely stuffed?

I’m done. Not coming back next year

Mate I’ve played basketball for 30 years at junior level, quite good senior level and old man ‘park footy’ equivalent and not seen a single person hit in the head on a rebound, let alone be concussed. This is a very silly comparison

Vomit

Extraordinary choice. But we are scraping the barrel a bit

Surely you jest

That’s exactly what they should be saying. You knock someone out, you go. It’s 2023, we can’t have people just being smashed and the old boy network going into ‘what else could he do’ overdrive. It just has to stop.

Clearly hyperbole. And not smothering is not one that I’ve suggested.

Completely agree. The play had clearly stopped. The TV cameras weren’t even focussed on the ball by that point

There are about 15 suggestions above in the thread. Not sure how you’re not sure

The only explanation for Fritsch’s kicking was that his foot was numb with painkillers and he couldn’t feel it

Simple rule. Don’t leave your feet and lose control. Failure to take reasonable care. Nobody is missing anything.

Landed on top of him front on and shared the impact, rather than distributing the impact entirely on to Brayshaw’s face. He basically did the SUV smashing a Suzuki thing rather than two Mazdas hitting each other and everyone being ok It’s laughable to argue he had no other options or that what he did was reasonable. It’s also entirely predictable that he will be free to play because the AFL is borderline corrupt on these issues. A Melbourne player would get 4-5 weeks for that.

The look on Goody’s face when Smith and Langdon took advantage like it was a Benny Hill skit rather than let Fritta have a set shot was priceless. He’d have missed it I guess and maybe put it out on the full, so in some senses maybe we ended up a point better off than if they didn’t.

The simple principle in the Maynard incident is he left is feet and once you do that, it’s your risk. He could have just landed chest to chest or rolled the other way but he chose to brace and, frankly, stuff him. Deserves a month

Deep breath mate no need to be hysterical

Don’t do it, Hibbo, don’t!

Bit rough given the utter garbage served up by our leaders for most of 100 minutes of football. How about we start there instead of pinging the 6 gamer?

Oh that’s very good

I mean he’s won a B&F and a premiership and played 150 games it’s not like he spends his time as the unused medical sub every week!

How is Lachie Hunter a no name to you? Wowser!!

Ah! Good pick up that makes much more sense.
