Nankervis !!

It worked out, meant they were too tall down back and lost run. Definitely impacted the game and I'd have been pissed off i was a Swan.
 
As expected, referred directly to the Tribunal. Minimum of 3 games……..
I think he’ll the same as Mansell.

Yeah, agree.

And if your gonna knock a bloke out and cop a month, with the game on the line,

Knock out Heeney or Papley.
ANY offence against Papley during one of his goal kicking celebrations should be automatically downgraded to a warning only.

Deserves 3. It was cheap crap. Ran past the ball, didn't try to avoid a collision at all.
I get he was trying to show some leadership and be tough and aggressive. This was reckless and dumb.
I love him. I love him being tough, we feed off it. But this wasn't what I want to see when I hear "tough". It's not 1983

If this was Dangerfield, we'd be pissed.

Who said it was

Never seen it so couldnt say
DeG got 3, so if you reckon Nank should be happy with 4 you must reckon it is worse. but if you havent seen DeG s hit you cant watch much footy, so hard for you to know what suspension would be consistent.

If its not Richmond I dont generally watch much so couldnt say but big Nanks was as brutal a clip as ive seen for a while

What’s the difference between the bump Nanks put on, and the one Buddy put on Balta where the free was awarded to Ross downfield?
The result, not the action.
Cheap crap? Sounds like you like AFL bruise free modern football

It's 2023. One player got concussed. Nanks took the risk. Hit him high. He's going to get time.
It's not about what I want, it's about what's going to happen. The reality of it.
As for whether it's tough, there's nothing tough about running past it to collect someone.

We're coming up with some serious top 4 contenders soon. We're going to be without our best ruck.
Was that a worthwhile hit? Was it tough? What's the damage it'll cause to our first 22?
If he wanted to be tough, he could have grabbed him or pushed him over. Hitting him in the head...He's going to get weeks.

Didn’t say it was tough.
But you said it was cheap crap.
Physical intimidation on a football field is always worthwhile.
And the head high contact was incidental and unfortunately he’ll get weeks whilst Buddy’s action goes unpunished for the same action which fortunately for him, and our player, didn’t cause injury.
Ban the bump if we have to because that’s the only way they’ll achieve consistency and not rely on luck.
But I still object to calling a currently legal action cheap crap.

Yep, super dumb. Running into a midget the odds of doing anything other than what happened were tiny.

Disappointing from the skipper.

Unlock the Soldo.

I can forgive players still bumping occasionally but yeah, if the bumpee gets hurt, they'll do hard time on the sidelines.
