Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

having possesion has nothing to do with the new law. if you make a bumb to an oppenent and make contact to the head or neck you are quilty of rough conduct

Has a lot to do with it. One of the reasons they gave for Franklin's verdict was that he had the option of laying a tackle. If Sewell didn't have possession then that takes the tackling option out of the equation and changes things quite a bit.

It could then be argued that the ball was in dispute and they were both going for it and that it was purely a collision in a contested situation.

I can't remember either Rance or Selwood getting citied when they made high contact on each other (head clash) in a contested situation.

Re: Lloyd will get off

no it was still a bump to the head, so should get a 1 week with the early plead.


Judd collected his team mate Stevens in the head and Judd could have pulled out to avoid hitting Stevens and he didnt .
Stevens had to be helped off the ground after Judd injured him.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

And once again, Nothing about Batemans' clothesline on Lloyd??

Are you for real?? It does not matter if it is 1930, 1960 or 2009. What Lloyd did was a dog act and something like that in footy will always lead to you coping a few back. Coward sniping dogs get there just rewards. And yes - Lloyd is one.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

Of course it was accidental - Lloyd was basically front on to Sewell with arms outstretched - that's not how you set up for a deliberate bump.

True, his arms were open, if his only intention was to bump he would have brought than in to focus all his force.
Was not a deliberate bump, but think he will probably get 2 and 1 on the early plea.

Yes, definitely a chance he will get weeks given the AFL's approach to head-high contact and the Franklin issue last week, 2 down to 1 seems most likely.
 
The difference between the Lloyd and Franklin bumps

One was delivered at the body - the other was all jaw.

Seriously for those moaning about hypocrisy and double standards etc., get a clue or develop some objectivity.

The intent and execution of both acts do not even share the same postcode.

One guy was trying to miss the head, the other through a lack of co-ordination or common sense, was gunning for it.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

If Lloyd was trying to get the ball why'd he try and get with his shoulder?
Surely if he was trying to pick up the ball he would've put his head over it?

Re: Lloyd will get off

Doesn't help that Schoenmakers gave him a little push forward into Sewell.
**** off

lloyd had him lined up, with or without the push he was going to iron him out

Matthew Lloyd, AFL now must do more...bring in sin bin

Clearly the AFL Match review committee,tribunal and appeals system must bring in a more immediate severe penalty for head high tackles which result in significant injury. Some players just don't get the message. Sinbin is the only way.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

Great HIT by Lloyd.
I wish it was that little moron C.Brown though, **** he is a little ****. I wish Lloyd had of knocked him out like he did that other stumpy little loser Sewell.

I must say I feel for the Hawks fans on this board after the grace they showed last year in after the Hawks premiership success.
 
Re: Matthew Loyd Gone

Re: Matthew Lloyd, AFL now must do more...bring in sin bin

Based on this, Franklin would have been sin binned for the bump on Cousins last week. Head high and knocked Cousins out of the game.

Agreed ?
 
Re: Lloyd will get off

Because Sewell didnt have posession - so a tackle wasn't an option.

Work that one out




having posession has nothing to do it either does the tackle option.
the law says. "a player will be quilty of rough conduct if making a bump, either reasonable or unreasonable, causes forciful contact to be mad to head or neck"
