Just goes to show how soft Yeo must be if foam can knock him downIt looks like a foam guard to me, which means it'll cause less damage that a bare arm. Nothing wrong with him wearing it.

How about Gaff's hands? Chopping them of would do alot more for player's safety...Last night Fyfe seemed to lightly clip Yeo over the head with his elbow guard which left Yeo on the ground for a minute.
Ordinary this high contact would not hurt anyone, yet the hard bracing inside Fyfe's guard had a pretty big impact on Yeo.
Fyfe has been quoted as saying he doesnt need the elbow guard, but just wears it no due to superstition, and so his grandma can spot him.
For a guy who has history of elbowing people in the head, why does the AFL continue to allow this?
Great to see the supporter base who'll happily cheer opposition injuries and king hits so concerned about player welfare.
Yep. Knocked out Josh This good, breaking his cheek and jaw. Apparently it was only Styrofoam though...Was it Matty Lloyd who knocked out a Hawks player with an arm guard once? This guard doesn’t look anywhere near as solid, I’m sure it’s been AFL approved.

It's F**king Foam not a "brace"Last night Fyfe seemed to lightly clip Yeo over the head with his elbow guard which left Yeo on the ground for a minute.

Why doesnt he just get one of those "sleeves" the nba players wear?
Fyfe should really stop whacking fellas in the head, he's going to get a reputation.
No other player in the game currently comes close to Fyfes record:
4 X times he's been suspended for incidents
5 X times he's been fined for incidents
At least another 5 times he's been cited for incidents but cleared
In total it's a least 14 times he's drawn the attention of the MRP for one reason or another.
Think it’s only fair that because of this blatant cheating, LeCras and Fyfe’s teams are retrospectively both docked six points in each game that their respective players played in.Mark LeCras pretty much wore this forearm guard for the rest of his career after he was rushed back after fracturing it and it is probably closer to a shin pad than what Fyfe has on his elbow.
Inside info about this?Fyfe & Yeo have been at it since the school days.
Those are alarming statistics.
It’s like he’s got a Robbie Muir type record without ever missing a game.
Quite incredulous really.
