Player safety is 'No.1, 2 and 3 priority': Dillon defends Tribunal

AFL boss backs heavy Tribunal bans for dangerous tackles, flags changes to NGA and draft bidding rules

www.afl.com.au

Just straight out shows how delusional is the AFL? This comment is telling of the mindset at the AFL. Mark my words 2030 - 2033 is when Tackling becomes sanitised and almost outlawed. After then it would only be a matter of time after that going up for a speckie will be outlawed as you are no longer allowed to raise your knees in a marking contest.

Yet Dangerfield walked. Is it the tackle or is it the outcome Andrew?

Or is it the player?

 

[Wanyabeach]

Just watched Rugby League State of Origin AFL would be handing out life bans for some of those tackles ...

 

[davemc_lions]

one week as not intentional be annoying as accidental although you can sort of understand for Cameron/Bedford.
Three weeks too much for something with no malice in it.
Compared to what you get for a wayward elbow or fist out of play.

Maynard got of as they said it was a smoother in play
Cripps got off and won a brownlow on a technicality.

Homophobic slur 6 weeks
Tackle

 

[Duckimus Prime]

Dangerfields was the identical motion to Bedfords, and before we go down the “one was concussed and the other wasn’t” path, that didn’t seem to matter in Reid’s case either.

So where are we at? How can there be so much inconsistency and grey area open for manipulation

No Dangerfield's isn't. Dangerfield used the same tackle technique in this

Max Viney trying to get a job as a tackle coach ... doesn't take size differences or distance between tackler and tacklee into conisderation at all

Also never accounted for the speed of ball carrier who is trying to burst through the tackle. This is in comparison to someone standing still or moving slowly where you can think through where to position your legs in a tackle

Also why did I put round 19 on this thread title?

You all know what I meant.

I can't see either appeal being succesful. Just wasting everyones time.

 

[CarterS]

I can't see either appeal being succesful. Just wasting everyones time.

I didn't think so but now the AFLPA has come out against both suspensions it may move the needle a bit... let's see.

 

[werdna78]

Sometimes you just have make a stand, even when you know you're a good chance of losing.

If there are any more concussions this year from tackles, they will all get 3 weeks.

 

[CarterS]

Brisbane's argument feels a bit like this:

 

[Hollow Knight]

I can't see either appeal being succesful. Just wasting everyones time.

We’re standing up for ourselves, our player and the game, regardless of outcome.

Time well spent.

 

[Hollow Knight]

He’s free!!!

Justice!!!

Brisbane Lions saving the game we love. Get around us!!!

 

[hawkman]

Surely GWS now just use exactly the same argument

 

[Underarm]

I can't see either appeal being succesful. Just wasting everyones time.

Happy to be wrong. Cameron has got off.

 

[Elixuh]

Can’t keep a good bloke down.

Happy to be wrong. Cameron has got off.

If he wasn't a good bloke he wouldn't have had a chance.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Jam that up your shooter Andrew Dillon and Laura Kane.

Cmon, you all know the words!!
