Looks very bad - left the ground, targeted the head, very late.
So, whoever pushed him, which is an illegal act and has caused injury, will get 3 or 4 weeks I presume?
There was no Black in his jumpers colours which gives him an automatic reduction and because it is Sydney they will resurrect the Reprimand and give him one......
The more things change the more they stay the same
I think the bone of contention is that the review panel said there was 'body' contact and not 'high' or 'head' contact. From what I've heard, it was lucky the filth player didnt break his jaw!!
Dont worry, the AFL has been inundated with e-mails and the like since the decision. Obviously doesnt mean jack in the wash up but hey what else can u do???
