I'm going to go with no, but maybe just around the corner.
Bloody ridiculous that it isn't.

with the way they change rules and interpretations mid season, they will be just shooting themselves in the foot.
Wouldn't be a bullet in the hoof because the precedent for arbitrary,capricious,nonsensical,fickle,vengeful,contrary,inconsistent and plain wrong decision making is well and truly established.
I meant to say yesterday Crippa that I agreed entirely with your comments here regarding the mechanics of moral and administrative weakness embedded in AFL house.Thanks for posting that scon.
Keeping incompetent administrations afloat as a way of encouraging a mindset of dependence on the AFL is another self-interested policy the author does not mention.
Agreed, though I think Demetriou's total lack of accountability was an even more significant enabler of those "follies" than self-belief.
Fat Vlad The Amoral Dictator has just declared the rule is right/citing the NRL's current tragedy as evidence for the need to protect the head and "you only have to listen to the Dockers coach Ross Lyon who has said that it is the rule."(circular or what)
Just a few more unaccompanied Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers dance moves from the great man.

Be careful with the Astaire and Rogers references. Your letting your age out of the bag.
Doubt many of the whippersnappers on here have heard of either
I watch a lot of black and white movies.

So hang on, Risca was at risk of becoming a quadreplegic because he and Fyfe clashed heads?
Seriously, WTF!!!
More of a Gene Kelly man myself.

Hope we're singing in the rain tonight!
Then why didn't they cite the semi-spear tackle on Sheridan? He was lifted off the ground and slammed in two motions, it looked really bad but there was no injury so no foul. This is the biggest mistake of the system as they are not preventing incidents or teaching, they are just reacting to injuries.Fat Vlad The Amoral Dictator has just declared the rule is right/citing the NRL's current tragedy as evidence for the need to protect the head and "you only have to listen to the Dockers coach Ross Lyon who has said that it is the rule."

Head clashes are always going to happen due to the nature of the sport so unless you are doing something you are not allowed to do, why not call them an accident? Your concussion will not be less if you bang heads while being tackled or being bumped.
Sooooo this will be interesting. Mcveigh with a similar report to Fyfe in the swans game. Was his shoulder that made contact with the head not head on head. What will you do AFL ????

It doesn't matter what contacts the head, if the head is contacted he's gotta go.
Wonder if Adam's bump on selwood will be reported as well? Would love to see Eddie go full out...

Matera should go with a bump on Adcock. Adcock went off with a cut head. Stephen May crunched Zorko with a bump. My opinion in that he hit his head but that not go. And if the MRP was fair Merrett should get at double Fyfe. He'll probably get 1 or 2.
sorry but had to LOL at that

Nah the AFL still has the silver bullet in "Insufficient force" to cherrypick and rub out the players who don't put bums on seats at venues, no big loss.
You wouldn't want to think Fyfe doesn't put bums on seats,and some very agreeable bottoms too I'll wager.
