Autopsy AFL 2021 Round 1 - Crows v Cats Sat March 20th 4:35pm AEDT (AO)

Fox Footy already paving the way for him to be cleared.

Huh? They're pretty much saying he should get 2 weeks.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Yeah there was nothing in it minus Danger electing to bump late and clashing heads, and concussing the player. Other than that whole play; totally clean. Play on.

Clash of heads purely an accident that’s footy

Fox Footy already paving the way for him to be cleared.

lol no they're not. they pretty much all agree he's culpable for that.

 

[The 747]

If you choose to bump you’re basically responsible for any damage done these days aren’t you?

Seems so, not sure why the bump is still allowed TBH. What if you bump a bloke, that guy wobbles and hurts his knee? Does that count?

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Inb4 ‘we need an injury and a concussion sub’.

 

[tropicaltiger]

6 weeks!!!!

no way but its 3 or 4 hopefully.

 

[kickballfoot]

Robbo wanted Zac Williams banned for 4 weeks, he should be calling for 16 for Danger after that.

 

[SunshineBoy]

Last two games takes a player out late AFL nothing to see here

 

[NonPhixion]

I like Dangerfield as much as the next guy. But there is no common sense in suspending a player from a head to head bump. That’s just ridiculous

 

[Plugger35]

Danger needs to get weeks for that, if he was Stevie Baker he would get 12 weeks, he has priors.

Watch the AFL tribunal let him off with a fine as he is a star of the game.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

That play was sexy prior to the delay

 

[Jiggyman]

That's it Tex

 

[Boristown]

Stick that up your no flag winning arse Danger, you shit campaigner.

 

[CakeEater]

I'm sure the AFL media mafia who stick up for the supposed elite players will say "it's not his go" and he'll get the minimal suspension.

The Trent Cotchin rule

 

[NeutralFan]

Has someone been suspended for a head clash before?
Again, dunno why players try to bump when they're clearly going to kick after.

 

[bzparkes]

didnt fyfe get a week for that

When? Cleaned up Langdon in the pre-season with a head clash and ended up receiving the free kick.

Not that he elected to bump on that occasion so he shouldn't have been cited anyway.

Was there another time?

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Clash of heads purely an accident that’s footy

Yeah, it's not when you elect to bump late.

 

[RUNVS]

Glad the medical sub exists right now because without it Adelaide would be two players down only halfway through the second quarter which would put them at a massive disadvantage.

 

[Ati Tude]

3 weeks with a 3 week reduction for it being a past Brownlow winner and marquee player.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Crows have been bloody fun to watch this first half, playing great footy.

 

[undefined]

Technically speaking it's a week for Danger, but I hate to see players rubbed out for that.

 

[SSwans2011]

Matty Nicks doing a pretty stellar job at the Crows, has to be said.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Dangerfield gets up and walks off. Takes another Geelong player to come over to stop the game and alert the medical staff.

Flogasaurus.

 

[NeutralFan]

Dangerfield has the complete opposite head of Selwood, never bleeds.

 

[Ricky Vaughn]

Reckon it’s 2.
Careless, High impact, high contact.

Dunno if those guidelines are still current.
