John ralph said Lynch has broken foot
if he wasn’t injured he’d be sent straight to tribunal over Keath incident
*smile* off :bash

Lloyd seem to be suggesting that in lieu of concussing someone you should take out a vital organ.
exactly what I thought. Lynch pulled up, and he's being hung for it. Amazing. Does the league want big men contesting for marks or doesn't it? You can't do a full risk assessment and get it signed-off in mid air in 0.3 of a second. And even if you could, that would mean abandoning the attempt more often than not.

And that’s the incident where he fractured his foot apparently.
 
So ok, lets say Lynch didn't pull out and Keath being a dumbarse careers back into him and cracks a few ribs, is he also off to the tribunal or getting a couple of weeks off??

Where's the line, seriously. Lynch moved to protect himself not bump or impact Keath, it was protective rather than aggressive. When does it become more about the other player and sod what happens to yourself. Thats a mugs game.

And to Lloyd, he's actually probably right, but how does that make sense. Try to protect yourself and accidentally impact someone = 2 weeks. Keep going with the mark, and accidentally hit them with a harder act = nothing to see here.

Seriously, what are we actually expecting of players these days. Its becoming ridiculous.

This sort of stuff is going to kill AFL.

This could be his chance to get Tiger fans to petition for a statue of him at Punt Road.

Challenge any MRP verdict, head to the tribunal and just drop trou and brown eye the panel.

Will instantly make him the most popular Tiger of all time and they won't get him any worse than a broken foot.

Great thinking TBR. Would be an instant classic n go down in history as long overdue n desperately needed.

Is this the same foot he had operated on and only started full training on 2 weeks before round 1 ?

Or is it the other foot ?

Spot on. If Lynch cops a suspension for that, footy is dead.
