armo hit

[seano1]

anyone got a clip of his hit on no 7

[Junction Oval]

Straight down the front of his body - a great bump in today's soft touch footy.

[Enrico_Misso]

Armo looks more a leader each week.
This is a massive breakout season for him in all aspects of his game.

[gringo]

That tackle was perfect. So hard.

[Griggsy]

Perfect rib tickler, great technique.

[saintspremiers]

Guilty IMO. But under the new rules will probably be a $1,000 fine. It was uncalled for.

Tell me you're taking the piss?? If Armo is even charged for that tackle I will never attend an AFL match again, it was a perfect tackle on a guy who had the ball, it wasn't high, it wasn't late, it was plain perfect

Guilty of what?

The tackle of Armo's against Masten was perfectly legal & perfectly executed. He was front on to the player & took him out. In the Eagles forward line, Shenton was front on to his player whilst trying to turn & spoil the ball, makes light contact with his arm......Free kick!

Havent seen it but it is simple. If he misses the head then no issue, if he gets the head then a real issue. So did he miss the head?

Missed the head by a good metre.

Fine then unless not called for. Sounds like no worries to me. Havent seen the game. Did we win?

I see that now. Shocked Curly started a thread on them. 3 wins for the year is a good start.

Imagine running into a brick outhouse with an ARMITAGE SHANK inside.



Surely the players have to start calling him 'Shanky'

[Griggsy]

How the f does Burgoynes tackle beat out armitages into AFLs top 10 plays of the round. If anything Burgoynes was a free kick for tackling without the ball classic AFL

[elizabethr]

This tackle would have looked appropriate for state of origin RD
Classic!

[Animal Enclosure]

There was an earlier incident that Armo could be in strife over though... early 1st quarter, reasonably forceful head high contact front on.

The Masten one was 1000% legal.

The WC guy did duck into that one though - a little bit...

[elizabethr]

Lot of ducking and head throwing going on

The one in the first quarter was also against Masten, I think. This is probably the one the OP was talking about.

I think he's in trouble - it didnt look good at the time. Yes, Masten ducked his head, but Armo didn't attempt to get low to get the ball at all.

Maybe he can be given a fine under the "don't rub out good players" rule introduced this year.

[saintbrat]

Cleared but looked at, both going for ball
