What would you assume someone picking on you for something who was called out for doing the same thing was doing then sunshine?

Clear evidence of concussion indeed
No, not like at all. Slagging off someone's partner is really lowlife stuff, and not even vaguely similar to commenting on the game.

No but the AFL looks at the injury first and the action second.
Doesn't matter if he thought he had the ball or not. My point is it's not kreuzers fault danger smashed his head into the turf.
Anyway fine at worst which I think is fine but I hope they are consistant.

What rubbish. Making jokes about a concussed player is pathetic. Another delusional cats fan.
Of course it does. They often look at things like that when assessing these incidents.
No issue at all if he cops a suspension. Martin will win in any case...

Yeah sorry good point.
For some reason I thought the 'legality' of 'tackling' had become a grey area and was constantly evolving and being debated.
Clearly any tackle is ok because "it's legal to tackle in Aussie rules". (Pile drivers included)

You fans really are original with your jokes aren't you.
"Pile driver", jesus christ. Do you lynch mob members read the drivel you post?
A strong tackler taking down a tall player and correctly pinning the arms. Shame it hurt Kreuzer.
Never let the facts get in the way of a high-pitched whine.

Your time is coming Adelaide. Tex Walker & Co are gonna get pussy whipped. Dangerfield will win the Brownlow, Norm Smith, and Premiership. Win, win, win! #onlythingsadderisyouaremoreobsessedwithdangerthanweare #thereyougo #clown
Brownlowfield back to back, nothing to see

If DM is to win the brownlow, want it without a Danger suspension.
The two examples they just showed of tackles leading to suspensions were approximately 100 times worse than Danger's tackle.

My god some of the dribble in this thread is embarrassing for all involved.
We lost because Geelong are a good team and we are a bunch of kids who are very tired at the end of a long season. Not the umpiring.
Carlton people booing Zach Tuohy was stupid. We low balled him, it was his duty to his family to find a contract that reflected his talent. It was win/win for both clubs. I'll cheer Tuohy. Hendersook is the one we should Boo.
Dangerfield tackle is closer to the Mcarthy tackle than not.

Yes, you can, if it's a single-action tackle. A two-action sling tackle is illegal and players who do it get reported and usually suspended, and rightly so.
Tackling a player and putting them on the ground in a single action is not illegal, nor is pinning the arms which is how the players are coached to tackle to stop the player being tackled from being able to legally dispose of the ball.
The main thing that the MRP looks at is whether the tackle was one action or two. If it was single action, he'll be fine. If it was two actions (tackle first, slam into the ground second), he'll get cited. That's how the MRP have been looking at them for a couple of years now. But, that said, the MRP is a chook raffle these days and could come out with anything.
Just because an opponent's head hits the ground doesn't make the tackle illegal, players' heads hit the ground in tackles in every AFL game.

I have to conceed you appear to have a more detailed knowledge of the MRP's current approach than me.
And I agree it was the one action.
But they definitely look at arms pinned and driving the head into the ground - 100% sure on that one.
Arms pinned, head hitting the ground (arguably driven into the ground) and the injury to Kreuzer means he should get at least a week but I don't want to see him miss out on a brownlow because of that.

Hall of Famer
Pretty similar to cam mccarthy - one action, pinned arms, bloke concussed
FWIW - mccarthy shouldn't have been rubbed out and I'd prefer Danger didn't either as neither involved picking up a bloke and dumping him on his head

Fact is ball is gone , Kreuzer is tackled without
Yep agree-but can't understand why McCarthy got suspended!
