Mitchell Incident With Fyfe

[rumply]

As being highlighted in the Hawks/Freo game, Mitchell has kneed Nate Fyfe in the leg in much the same way as he did Tex Walker a couple of weeks ago which resulted in a nasty corky.

While Fyfe is back on field playing, he did have to leave for a while & there can be no doubt now that these acts are premeditated.

I await the AFL & MRP's response to what can really only be described as 'dog acts'.

Fyfe is running around. Looks fine.

 

[HTPunter]

How the * are these acts 'premeditated'

yeah I know, much no doubt to Mitchell's disappointment.

Shades of Sammy with Walker where he is involved in a collision and the other party comes away with a cork.



Will the MRP take action or deem it as they did with Taylor Walker:

Contact between Hawthorn’s Sam Mitchell and the Adelaide Crows’ Taylor Walker from the second quarter of Thursday’s match was assessed. Walker approaches Mitchell to shepherd him from his teammate as Adelaide moves the ball forward. Michell raises his arm and leg to protect himself and brace for contact, and makes contact with Walker.

 

[The 747]

Oh noooooes, someone gave someone a corky

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Yep, similar to Walker's.

It's clearly a tactic Mitchell uses to injure, and its cheap.

Will the MRP be able to use the finding for the Walker incident?

"Contact between Hawthorn’s Sam Mitchell and the Adelaide Crows’ Taylor Walker from the second quarter of Thursday’s match was assessed.

Michell raises his arm and leg to protect himself and brace for contact, and makes contact with Walker."

How the **** are these acts 'premeditated'

he is running toward players & raises a knee to inflict damage. he isnt doing it in self defense or for any other purpose but to inflict injury

 

[Righteo]

Like Stevie J he's nothing more than a cheeky lil rascal.

Don't forget world class sledger.

Dear oh dear. Blinded by hatred. BOTH Fyfe and Walker initiated contact. Happy for the MRP to discuss whrther Mitchells protection of himself was reasonable, I'm not sure, but he is protecting himself from the block. He is NOT lining these guys up off the ball and kneeing them.

 

[sloth6]

Of course he does it on purpose and it isn't to protect himself, it's to hurt the opposition.

No doubt about it

Needs a week for stupidity

Let's play the MRP excuse game. Will it be:
1. Protecting himself in play.
2. Incidental contact.
3. Insufficient force.

We all know he'll get off being a dirty sniper yet again, but it'll be interesting to see how they let him off.

Yea, hes a dog

Left right left right left right

 

[rumply]

worked well once & he got the AFL's tick of approval so why not try again. Sammy boy must be spewing he aint big enough to sling tackle.

Walker with a sense of humour:

 

[Great8]

Dont see a huge issue with it

 

[SBYM]

Just dug up a childhood pic of Sam...
