Daisy suggested the concussion protocols didn't happen, and she does play the game, and it would be controversial. then another commentator stepped in and shut her down.
It looked nasty MCR, but it is really hard to say without being on the spot. You don't automatically go downstairs and get the pen and paper out for a knock to the head, there's a range of things you work through to get to that point.
They had time to work through that stuff during the time patching them up and they both will have been absolutely clear on all measures, so you don't go into the next phase.
One thing I would say though is I would unequivocally back the competence, judgement and professionalism of the medical staff involved and anyone who thinks they know better from a distance is a fool.
That would put a few makeup\teeth whitening companies out of business I do believe.
Isnt she lacing them up again for maybe one of the new teams next season ?
Well they should show the deciding evidence otherwise don’t show anything and don’t have the arc

Further to this, there was another example in the game when Dustin took a knock in a marking contest. Went down for a bit, and Greg Hickey came out to him, will have done an assessment and determined all was fine so in that instance he doesn't even leave the field.
They keep an eye on him and check in next time he comes to the bench and at break for an signs of a delayed onset.
So it should be. But have a feeling that the AFL will allow it to be swept under the carpet. Stewart passed his concussion test last week and they still kept him off.
Bloody hell they are. Many similarities. Eg can’t kill a team when they’re right on top, absurd skill errors and turnovers, chaotic etc
Well if he's "carrying something", surely NOW would be the time to rest him up ?
Let's hope it isnt something that will cost us later down the road, give him some time off and heal up I'd be saying.
Every single head clash of that nature I have seen in games has required a concussion test as per the AFL protocols. That was a serious event. No-one is saying they think they know more than the doctors but the whole reason the protocols were brought in was to standardise the process.
Sarah Jones is nothing more than an AFL apologist and Dill knobslobberer and she isnt that good at it either. (n.b The Apologist that is !)
The AFL are *smile* idiots. Fair dinkum. Thursday night in middle of winter against an interstate team. It was bloody freezing. FFS what a joke.
Thursday night footy is *smile*. I kind of get it early and late in the season when it’s warmer: although I still don’t like it. But in the middle of winter? When people have got to get home from work and into the G for a 7.20 start? And go to work and school next day? *smile* ridiculous.
I went tonight but would not blame anyone who decided not to. The AFL is *smile*.
Best and most accurate post Ive ever seen from you Bundy, with you 100% on this one................. Dill is an absolute Top Shelf Snapper and I cant wait to see the last of him.
