Archer in trouble

[GeordieRoo]

They showed it on Ch 9 after the first quarter highlights, smashed Thurley in the head with a forearm.

Thurley was on the ground and had the ball, Arch came in from the side with a round-arm swing and collected him on the head. It didn't look good, but I only saw it once.

COuld make a bad-day worse if we miss him next week or for longer

 

[Tas]

Didn't see it, it all depends if he was going for the ball or not. He has got off other dubious incidents because he had eyes for the ball.

 

[Andrew Bogut]

From a Geelong perspective i felt he was just trying to put some phyiscal pressure on Thurley.

Had no real chance to hit the ball so probably in a bit of trouble.

Lovely

 

[jobbidiar]

due to his "record" in the past, i can see him unfortunately getting 2 weeks for what he did

 

[Ghostwriter]

Will get a minimum of 2 weeks.

 

[year of the roo]

Who knows what will happen. If they compare it Gehrig's love tap he will get 30 weeks, if they join the rest of us in reality he may not get done at all.

Toss a coin.

 

[Awesome_Wells]

He will get 2 weeks. He got let off against the Crows and i think Power but not this time.

 

[Star]

I love Arch but I am sick of seeing a thread with this title 2 in every 3 weeks

 

[onslaught]

I saw highlights of the game while up in the Country... he also gave a good cheapy late in the game as well... nothing really in it.

I'd say two weeks for the early one though, looked bad on TV.

Glenn Archer has always been fierce and he hates losing. I love the bloke and he does not deserve the crap side he is playing in ATM.

 

[Rhombus]

YUP...........2 weeks absolute minimum - might get 3-4

 

[kangafruity]

Hotham, I think he takes his frustration with the team out on the opposition and unfortunately as it has done in the past it will cost the team.
You are right he doesn't deserve the c**p that his supposed team mates are dishing up and if they each had half the heart that he had, days like today wouldn't happen.

 

[Dingster]

Has to go for that. He was clearly trying to provide some leadership with his attack on the footy, but that was just frustratingly careless.

How sick is Mooney? A couple of tinnies short of a six pack is Cam.

 

[Twinkletoes]

Poor Arch will go for that one. He should've done the same to a few North players in the rooms afterwards for embarrassing him and his club.

2+ games I reckon as it was caught so clearly on camera and was a pretty hard hit to the head. Won't get off that one IMO damnit
