The attack on Horne-Francis had to be a pre-planned coaching directive.
You wait till his mum hears about it!!
YOU ARE MAKING HIS MUM VEEERRRY ANGRY!!What's he going to do? ... he can't exactly go home again!
Not all heroes wear, capesmaking-me-type-stuff-into-a-french-to-english-translator ... mutters darkly.
To save my friends from the same pain...hit it long! Top of the goal box! Joe is wide open! Jesus!
Only one person knows what Maimard's intentions were at the time.blaming someone won’t fix it
Only one person knows what Maimard's intentions were at the time.
We draw our conclusions about his intentions from observing his actions and spoken words up until the point of contact.
Both actions and words are rather damning.
What is hard is the fact that you see friendly fire things like this all the time.I watched f***-all of the footy on the weekend.
But I hate the wash-up from the Maynard-Bradshaw business.
1. I can see both sides of the argument about whether he should be suspended or not. Personally I don’t think he should have been.
2. At what point are grown adults going to get to the stage where they realise that things like this are not pre-planned, deliberate, or in any way malicious? It is a contact sport with bodies flying in all directions for the best part of two hours every time a game begins. Players have split second to attempt to make a decision about how to play the game and impact the actual scoreboard without having time to deliberately try and hurt someone and in 99 per cent of cases there is absolutely no intent whatsoever. Yes it sucks seeing a mate and someone you care about being seriously hurt but blaming someone won’t fix it

Obviously no one tries to take their own player out - but it happens. No one gets suspended.can be exactly the same circumstance and if one of the players has a different footy jumper on…
The league is in between a rock and a hard place on this. This have to be seen to be doing something. I can see a future with no contact as being inevitable eventually.
That’s like a straw man that’s just been elected professor of straw man ship at Oxford universityRobbo for all his faults does bring the odd common sense view to these sorts of things and pointed out last night that if a player is doing something perfectly legal and that isn’t regarded as a particularly dangerous action (a smother) his first duty is to protect himself.
In boxing it’s incumbent upon participants to protect themselves at all times, for their own safety and it is a pretty basic sporting principle, that you do your best to protect yourself. If that involves something that accidentally impacts on someone else then it just needs to be accepted.
What if Maynard doesn’t protect himself and flies face first into Brayshaw’s head as he tilts it downward or something: imagine if people tried to claim ‘brayshaw chose not to sidestep and go through with the kick and then chose to move his head into its final position, he should be suspended.’
