Nothing hard about that tackle - just cheap.

Fathead Tredrea didn't need to be knocked out to have no impact. He got spanked by Carroll and his own inability to kick
Actually most commentators and people that were at the ground agree. He will go for a week coz the AFL need to set an example with that rule somewhere. He had clearly disposed of the ball, there was no need to ride him into the ground a good 2 seconds later. His gone.
Doesn't matter though Melbourne are dogsh*t and arnt going anywhere this season. Game was close coz quite simply our guys were stuffed from 2 wet games in a row.
That would have been virtually impossible to do.
He aint superman.

AFL cannot set an example with a rule that hasn't yet been put in place. The tackle started just before Cornes got rid of the ball so how could Pickett be expected to suddenly pull out in a fraction of a second when they were already falling to the ground? Think before you talk mate.
The tribunal will look at it thats for sure. Whether he goes or not, im not sure but he will be told what to do and what not.
Either way. Glad he doesn't play for us anymore

Your only Norm Smith medallist had 1 bad year and got dropped. Felt for the guy.
He tackled him from behind so how the hell could he see if hed hand balled it?
By the time hed seen the ball come out he had no chance of doing anything else as he was already going downward.

You obviously have no idea of forward momentum and gravity.

The match review panel will look at it but should throw it out. It should never get to the tribunal.
So am I but why exactly? So far he hasn't been suspended in his 2 and a bit years if I remember correctly. He'd easily slot into your team still. His tackle was textbook. Cornes's injury was unfortunate. If it was Jared Rivers running back with the flight for a brave mark and he jumped and accidentally kneed Cornes in the head while still looking at the ball people would call it an accident but since it's Pickett all hell breaks lose.

No i do. His gone
You obviously have no idea about grammar either.
Two seconds later? Are you serious that you believe it was two seconds later? If that's your evidence then you should be given a week
Good old fashioned hard tackle from Byron. Play on.
