Extreme compared to other incidents , but I hope they use this as a springboard to get a lot tougher on all high tackles and fighting. Too much is made of this "don't hit a man with his back turned" , its just crap. What should you do? Tap him on the shoulder, then when turns round its ok to try and break his jaw or knock him out? Don't we see players hit high in tackles and punched in tackles all the time when they are in no position to defend themselves.
Yes I agree he should go for this amount of time, but a lot of high shots are just as dangerous and gutless as what he did. Fighting and high shots should be stamped out. The whole bring back the biff thing is crap. If a punch connects and knocks someone out or breaks there jaw or causes a serious gruesome injury, that slogan will be dead very quickly. I'm amazed its endorsed now. Its just a matter of time before something really serious and dangerous happens. Its like that saying saying says, its all fun and games still someone gets hurt.
