Oh you would love Maynard if he played for your team.
Not saying he can’t football. But a grub is a grub.

In comparison to JVR who only got 1 week?
Blakey played out the game and was in Sydneys best. If it was high impact how was he not concussed? Should Sydney doctors be stood down and the club fined like Port for not taking him off?
Carlton lawyers will get it down to 1 at least.
Typical from Michael Christian. I know people who have worked with him directly, all agree he is "dumb as dogshit".
Imagine if the ARC was used properly and we had played Adelaide instead?Imagine if he had been able to play an extra 20% game time because he wasn’t punched in the head?
6 point swing perhaps….
Only started posting on Thursday? Already got banned and finals hadn't even started yet? obvious dummy account is obviousCarlton supporters online trying to contribute to relevant discussion in September, it must be surreal for them.
The arrogance is sickening but amusing to think they must be in shock not studying the draft already
Run that defence at the tribunal and see how it goesImagine if the ARC was used properly and we had played Adelaide instead?
Perhaps you should thank the AFL and sit down...
He got lucky and didn't get concussed, not everyone does after a hard hit. It doesn't change the impact of the blow. If thats not worth 2 weeks, nothing is.Blakey played out the game and was in Sydneys best. If it was high impact how was he not concussed?

Agree to an extent, was there a chance he could've been got concussed? Of course.He got lucky and didn't get concussed, not everyone does after a hard hit. It doesn't change the impact of the blow. If thats not worth 2 weeks, nothing is.
While i agree with the point your making about the coverage being disgusting the other night, it's a lot easier to defend a "spoil gone wrong" than a punch in the faceIt's a shame we didn't have the boys club on the commentary panel last night. It would've been nice for him to have a chance to plead his innocence in an interview 2 minutes after the game.
Tell them you tried to smother the ball. Send Blakey and his missus some flowers. You'll be playing next week Jack.
Nice grammar!Only started posting on Thursday? Already got banned and finals hadn't even started yet? obvious dummy account is obvious

Is that in writing somewhere? I'm going off this.

He's certainly a barnacle, had a cushy job for so long, made many a howler, no consequences.Blakey played out the game and was in Sydneys best. If it was high impact how was he not concussed? Should Sydney doctors be stood down and the club fined like Port for not taking him off?

High preponderance of Carlton supporting mods.That’s probably the reason.Nice grammar!
Don’t even know why I got banned.
Have seen some very ordinary comments by blues supporters
Agree - Carlton should be forced to start Jack Martin as the sub and not allowed on until at least the 2nd quarter so he misses at least 25% of the next game....good shout.Because concussion protocol basically means if you take someone high, they’re basically gone for 25% of the game, punishment should reflect it.
In a just world the offending player would be benched until the victim can return to the field, but a just world this is not.
Let us not dwell on it brothers, let us not dwell on anything at all.
Happy finals season to all who celebrate.
Yeah reading that it's probably not being downgraded then heyCan’t find it, but pretty sure that’s how they usually grade any concussion as severe.
But the following guidelines do show why downgrading won’t happen as potential to cause injury and swinging arms are all reasons for higher impact classifications.

I have no idea. Make him "earn it" a la football of a past era? Regardless, it wasn't called for.I’m still trying to work out what he was actually attempting to do?
Is it like a kind of jumper-punch-esque tactic where you kind of swing your arm in the tackle to kind of disguise a punch in the sternum to make it a really “hard” tackle or what?
Regardless, would have been good to get a free kick.
Intentional strikes with raised elbows... that sounds familiar. No, wait. It's ok. JVR was cited for rough conduct, not a strike and it was graded careless, not Intentional.Can’t find it, but pretty sure that’s how they usually grade any concussion as severe.
