Jack Martins punch on Blakeys jaw

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

probably a week.

not sure were all the comments about him attempting a smother. he was clearly trying to do a handpass.

You can smother a handpass IMO. It's just a deflection to cause a loose ball and a turnover.

 

[Smeg Head]

I reckon it will be graded careless/high but medium (not low), which means 1 week.

That would be fair. You just can't do what Martin did in modern day footy.

I still think Low because Blakey played on without any noticeable effect to him.

Ok well you can keep that one in your pocket for later on when you feel like crying again

I can keep what in my pocket for when I feel like crying…? What are you talking about?

your shithouse opinion. You can keep your shitty opinion that the Swans would have won if some random bullshit didn't happen in the 1st quarter. Write it down, fold it up and put it deep in your pocket for later.

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

Is the game so soft we are even discussing this.

Literally yes.

Where have you been for the past decade?

Soft or not, this is the game now. It has been this way for years now. Why are you shocked?

Strangely would probably 3 weeks in the NRL and nothing in the AFL

 

[Geelong_Bisons_#36]

Swinging arm to the jaw. Easily a week.

Swinging arm to the jaw. Easily a week.

Look closer hits Blakey’s shoulder first and his hand rides up to his head. Careless act but not intentional.

 

[TRP1996]

MRO to preside over bare knuckle boxing match between Martin and Maynard.

Winner gets off, loser gets three weeks.

No worse than the current system.

 

[SA HAWK]

Goneski

 

[Sarcoidevo]

If that's not gone the whole tribunal needs to be stood down with immediate effect

 

[Giant Pete]

It’s interesting reading this thread so far. In the NRL, these get picked up quickly as they can cause severe damage… we call it a swinging arm.
My first thought was he would have to get a week for it. So lucky he didn’t break his jaw.

That's not true at all. One part of his arm, around his bicep, hits Blakey's shoulder, at practically the same time his wrist/forearm hits his jaw.

NRL would have sent him off straight away

Should be 2 weeks - Blakey was taken for tests.
Intentional, High contact and high impact.
Will be 1 week though.

JVR should have been 2 but got 1, McStay not as dazed as Blakey, lower impact

 

[beerbandit]

Most likely will get 1 week which will be overs I feel.

Enter Carlton’s bigwigs and he will play against Melbourne.

Can’t be high impact because he wasn’t concussed.

 

[GoPies1]

I think severe impact is a concussion or other long lasting injury

Why would I do that? What a weird thing to say…

 

[BF Tiger]

At least a week.

 

[Tugga27]

I still think Low because Blakey played on without any noticeable effect to him.

That's not low.

Went of for a concussion test.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Careless conduct, medium impact, high contact seems the obvious result here, which ends at 1 week

 

[Maddo11]

Why didn't Blakey protect himself?

Probably Careless Medium High (1w).

Maybe Intentional Medium High (2w).

 

[PowerBaz]

I still think Low because Blakey played on without any noticeable effect to him.

So did the bloke Rioli slapped like a girl. He got 2. But VFL Carlton discount as excepted.
