How can you break someone's cheek in a spoil attempt and not get pinged? I've got no doubt it was accidental but the fact remains that he has whacked a bloke in the side of the head and put him out of action for a month.
No penalty = what a joke...
No doubt it was accidental? I don't know if it was or not but how long does Lynch think his arms got over night?Originally posted by Zeke

I think one Jason Cloke will be fuming over this decision.

Not surprising, was a waste of time reporting him in the first place. Cloke would of been cleared too, if he didn't do it during a final.

Apparently it is only reckless if it doesn't involve a Lions player doing the punching. I think one Jason Cloke will be fuming over this decision.
Are you trying to say Cloke wasn't? Then you don't know him very well, do you. Lynch has a far greater history of punching opponents than Jason Cloke ever has.Originally posted by maccas_no1
Cloke's attack on Edwards was alot more severe than Lynch's, and Lynch was actually trying to puch the ball not the man in the head
Well now all AFL players know that when they want to punch someone all they need do is wait until the ball is in the vicinity. Better let Baker know that.Originally posted by cameronk
You guys have to be kidding dont you, there was no way in the world he deserved to be rubbed out for that, The ball was in the vicinity and if he was not be held back off the ball he would have been able to get off the ground. What was he suppose to do, no make a contest. Football is turning more into a game for the fairies everyday

So you honestly believe he was targeting the player?
Doesn't matter. Under the AFL rules if his action was reckless he is guilty of the charge. That is what Jason Cloke was suspended for. A total lack of consistency. (I can put the roll eyes in too)Originally posted by cameronk
