He wasn't concussed.

End of discussion.

Dangerous tackle??

yeah nah

There have been 18 suspensions for dangerous tackles this year, I'd bet half of them the player tackled played out the game.

From just last round, Taylor Adams played out the game, Duggan suspended. Walsh played out the game, Parker suspended.

Honestly mate if it wasn't a Sydney player you'd stay in your box.

There was no concussion. It was a typical chase down tackle. His arm was free.

Dan Butler will play next week.

Couldn't just be a fan of the league discussing how they're adjudicating/punishing dangerous tackles (or not dangerous but suspending players anyway) this year, gotta be biased.

I tip my hat to you for admitting it.

Got a chuckle out of me with this one

At this point I don't know what they expect players to do, that Butler tackle was executed fine. There was no slinging motion, he didn't dump Blakey in the tackle and there weren't two motions.

It's a contact sport, we just have to be smarter about not letting players back on or letting them continue to take part with obvious concussions.

Id bet at least 15 played out the game including the 2 week suspension for Will Day, and Im pretty sure Ryan Burton.

One week. Afl make me laugh.

We’ll see you on Tuesday. Waste of everyone’s time!

AFL can go and get bankrupt.

 

[True Blue Saint]

The AFL never cease to amaze me with their inability to use common sense

 

[Maddo11]

Never in doubt.

 

[TheFreshBinnivan]

Never in doubt.

You are such a muppet

 

[JackFlash]

He cops a week for a perfect tackle he should've received a free kick for? The game is the biggest loser and the tackle is not going to be part of it within a few short years.

We are trying to stamp out dogshot tackles from the game. So would be a fair outcome.

Bay 13 for silly
Comments mate

A one week ban for that is a joke, we have to challenge that at the tribunal but knowing our luck with the tribunal we probably won't be successful.

 

[keithrichards]

Never in doubt.

You had him for 2+ so you were further off the mark than pretty much everyone in this thread!

 

[Plugger35]

This isn't over with yet so I wouldn't be getting too cocky.

 

[Mofra]

Seems a bit different to other tackles that players have been suspended for, given it was a single motion and momentum carried him forward.

Yeah when I posted the OP he had been subbed out, assumingly concussed. Fine with 1 if he passed the HIA
