Great pic. His expression says everything about intent. There was another photo on here that showed that the ball was coming to Izak Houston was 2.5 meters away and already in the bump position.View attachment 2084835
This still clearly shows his shoulder in his neck. Do we know what is connected to the neck? The jaw. And what is the jaw part of? The head.
Thank you for coming to Anatomy 101.
Interesting to see Rachele not wearing a mouth guard - not sure if it was just a moment in the game, but it seemed to me that he just doesn't wear one? If so, that would seem ridiculous for an AFL player to not be wearing one. Could it also explain his lack of wanting to get in for the hard ball?It's different .....planned celebrations amongst teammates, yeah I'm not a fan ....but that's probably me showing my age
But the teeth nonsense, is just inviting someone to jump the fence and clock Rachele .....the AFL talk about crowds responsibilities to players ....this was inciting trouble
It may not be at the game ....but Rachele just walking the streets of Adelaide, could spur on a retaliation
Seems to be a few young players not wearing mouth guards ....maybe Rachele is thinking of joining PORTInteresting to see Rachele not wearing a mouth guard - not sure if it was just a moment in the game, but it seemed to me that he just doesn't wear one?

100 % correct. My understanding is that Fos Williams introduced this in the 60 s Jack perpetuated it and Kenny has embraced it.Can one of the older posters on here inform me, didnt Dave Granger back in the 80s was instructed by the coach to take out Cornes?
The Port Adelaide Way.
Its inbred in their DNA.

Good to see the umpires protecting players. No free here either. Play on.
Houston instead of going for the ball, elected to go for the player instead.Great pic. His expression says everything about intent. There was another photo on here that showed that the ball was coming to Izak Houston was 2.5 meters away and already in the bump position.
Laird will only play midfield in emergencies in 2025 ......too slow nowIt's nice that we're prioritizing "experience" like Laird for their "leadership" which includes throwing young stars under the bus in the media
You reap what you sow when you make that decision, in a few hours we will see the result of that decision for him, Finally.

'In no way a dirty player': Teammate reveals Dan Houston's apology to Izak Rankine ahead of crucial Tribunal date
Port Adelaide star Dan Houston's season will be on the line when he fronts the AFL Tribunal over a brutal bump which left Adelaide's Izak Rankine concussed. Ahead of it, he has reached out to his rival to apologise.www.abc.net.au
On this note it's ridiculous that Butters can get fined every 3 games and not get a suspension. Clearly the fines are not a disincentive.Butters and Rozee continuing the Port Adelaide way.
Yep.lol
The knitting is appropriate given the demographic of the Crows supporter base.
Well I an not sure. Finals are different . In 2017 Trent Cotchin should never have played in the GF but he did. Just last year Brayden Maynard hit Brayshaw ...he played in the GF . So I agree that he deserves over 5 , do not be surprised if he gets 2 or 3.Afl getting it out there so people are used to it by the time the decision comes
Nah mate, impossible.The next frame could very well show the top of Houston’s shoulder colliding with the back of Rankine’s skull.
I got images of the AFL Tribunal LIVE.Yep.
In fact, I'm knitting a noose for Houston at this very moment ...
3 games or less is a huge win for Port. There is hope......Well I an not sure. Finals are different . In 2017 Trent Cotchin should never have played in the GF but he did.

Port's thuggery tactics in the Showdown will not have gone unnoticed by the opposition Clubs in the 8, that they may play.Hope the Port fans keep the same energy if/when the same sh*t happens to their best players. Wonder if it's a 'fair hit' then and the player who knocked out their guy should be let off. Or if their guy was a soft campaigner.
The hypocrisy of those campaigners is evident when the retort from some of their media dogs is to bring up Bickley from 20+ years ago, but not every other concussion or knock in the Showdowns since.
Oy, im 63 and couldn’t knit to save myself! Lollol

Yea, Laird can get ****ed. You can talk to Rachele in private, that's fine, but publicly throwing him under the bus is BS.
