Just watched the replay. Saw him say f**k twice. Should have been a free kick and a 50m penalty against him. :wink:

no f**k is ok but if he said f**kn Knee he would have had to apologise to all the knees in the world and pay a $3000 fine and attend mediation with all the medial ligaments of the world

Isn't in his character to let those ones bounce, but I think he's going to have to let them go in future....avoid heavy knee impact wherever possible.

I'm optimistic to be honest, he was hobbling around but probably without the jab he'd usually have if he went back out there?

I'd be quite confident he limps around after most games.

I don't think the kick was that bad. It's the way he tried to mark it that was silly. He should have slid into a chest mark, rather than sticking his foot forward whilst trying to mark it off his ankle

poor kick contributed.

The kick didn't contribute , It was the reason !

If plugger had the ball kicked to as roo has for most of his career , he'd have been lucky to kick 500 goals for us !

If Roo had Winmar and Harvey in his prime kicking the pill to him, he would have kicked 1000.

The kicking to Roo in the past few years has been pretty ordinary at best. But you get what you deserve when you draft blokes who are average field kicks. Don't know of too many who go from being poor field kicks to great ones.
