Yeah, and because it’s reckless, if they hit someone in the wrong spot then they’ll get suspended too.
This is actually an interesting discussion: should any action that results in blood being drawn on a player's face/head result in an automatic 1 game suspension minimum?
If you swing a roundhouse at an opponent's head , and he ducks and it doesn't connect, you don't have anything to answer for, despite the intention to knock his block off.
Intention doesn't seem to be a big part of it.
Yeah that Harris Andrews one sticking the elbow out is a good example.If you swing a roundhouse at an opponent's head , and he ducks and it doesn't connect, you don't have anything to answer for, despite the intention to knock his block off.

Has anyone ever been suspended for swinging and missing ?I feel like that would be a suspendable (is there such a word) offence.
In footy? Dunno. In other sports? Yes.Has anyone ever been suspended for swinging and missing ?
He would get a huge suspension for that now. Probably 6 weeksWith the new rules as they are written Heeney cops a week. Ridiculous in my opinion.
What would David Mackay get today for nearly decapitating Hunter Clark in 2021? Still nothing to see here?

I just went to Footscray for the first time ever and I can see why their supporters are so ****ing disgusting, what a smelly ****ing shit hole
To me the most head contact i see is defenders who "oh dear i was trying to punch the ball and hit him in the temple ".
To me that's worse than a blood nose ( unless the nose is actually broken ). Some of them are pretty high impact, and a large number of smaller impacts can still cause long term brain effects.
But it doesn't come with a big red light drawing attention.
Steven Baker got done for attempting to strike.Has anyone ever been suspended for swinging and missing ?

Ben Long got weeks for “potential to do harm.”Steven Baker got done for attempting to strike.

Dumbest decision ever, and there’ve been a few.
It's probably due to injuries like Hunter Clark's jaw smashing that the automatic "intentional" rule was introduced.With the new rules as they are written Heeney cops a week. Ridiculous in my opinion.
