High Shot On Saleh

Can't remember who did it - Watmough I think - but having a look I think he's in a bit of trouble.

Initial point of contact is squarely on Saleh's mouth/chin, and hits him hard enough to lift him off his feet. And no, there is no hint of a "dive".

If that's not grade 3 reckless I don't know what is

All I can say is that we had better not have anyone sent off this year.
That is a deadset send off offence, not the soft-arse 'on report' option that Hampstead took.

Thing is he could have hit him with a normal tackle, he went for the head. He looks set for a long rest...

The thing about it is that he lined him up. He had time to set himself and make a proper tackle, but instead thought 'cop this'

Nasty stuff

Well the standard has been set, the only way you can get sent off for a head-high is if you decapitate the player with the ball. Anything less goes on report.

I dont think the tackle was as bad as it looked.
Can someone remind me when Andrew Walker's tackle happened? It couldn't of been much.

Dead set. The Judiciary is still a joke.

Gallen cops a suspension for "fighting", when no punch even went close to connecting, while Watmough almost knockes Saleh's head off and escapes suspension.

STUPID

I'm still dirty on the Gallen one Richo.
I thought Saleh milked the tackle a bit on Saturday night. I could be wrong but he seemed fine after it.


Thanks Major Quimby.
Hasn't Walker lifted in tackles before or am I getting it confused with a few of his Brumby tackles?
