Darcy Moore - Professional hitman

[kreuze_missile]

Ive seen enough. He is clearly leading with the knee and intending to cause harm.

How many more players does he get to freely injure before the AFL step in and book him for charging?

coincides with his value as a footballer falling off a cliff...funny that

 

[ThatsjustDappa]

Noticed that. Reckon he will start getting targeted the same way in games I guess.

Witts has a back fracture from Darcy's knee

History repeats, a certain brownlow medal winning Sydney Swan was the same. Once the skills started to fade, his penchant for cheap tactics increased.

Nothing wrong with jumping for the ball with your knee to spoil or mark, please dont get this taken away as well or may as well be watching netball

 

[Philhawk]

Anyone heard from Eddie McGuire?



Was quick to accuse Chol of “pretending to go for a mark” and breaking May’s ribs, but has been suspiciously quiet at Moore’s similar (multiple) actions

Wow.

Moore going to have to kill someone for this to even get looked at.

 

[Orange crush]

These constant injuries are really derailing thing …. Instability is a killer

Guarantee you used to pull your dick silly at the UnSociAblE hAwKs.

Total of 3 games suspension in his career.

If only he were a drink driving good bloke

 

[HTPunter]

Obviously no idea if Moore intends to do this, would think not, but he’s allowed to attack a contest with his knee up. And so he should. Not sure how else he would - run, stop & jump straight up 2 legs straight ?

 

[EBERT THE KING]

Has been wildly exposed as a horrific defender after Murphys retirement.

Borderline best 22 at the moment.

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

Ok, at the risk of expressing an unpopular opinion, and perhaps an outdated one..

Who cares if players get hurt?

Whatever happened to 'make him earn it'?

Whatever happened to 'make him think twice next time'?

Whatever happened to 'got to crash the packs'?


Footy has always been a battle of attrition. Hurting someone was always the intent. If you could slow someone down with a corky.or something - great. If you could hurt someone enough that they couldn't come back on - perfect!!

And I knew the opposition had the exact same intent.


I actually get disappointed when a player doesn't hurt someone with a knee when they have the chance.

 

[Eshay187]

A bit psycho mate

 

[Sherrinator]

Players are taught to use their knees to move their opponent from Auskick. It’s entirely a ploy used outside of the jumping technique.

Collingwood and their players live rent free in your heads....

Stop looking for things that aren't there.

 

[The Mares Leg]

There are different ‘techniques’ to using the knee - from ‘perching’ on a shoulder, to ‘bumper barring’ as in the ruck, or. into the back to get leverage.

The only one that is relatively new to the game is deliberately ramming the point of the knee into the body or thigh.

I recall the outcry when Roger Merrett was called out for such actions by Mike Sheahan in the Sun..that’s how uncommon it was.

I think its crept into the game because current umpires are too inexperienced to know it used to be paid as a free against.
