2 players injured because of metal studs

Wait, are you saying the studs that initially made contact with WHE were also metal? Or same player??

By faint hearted you mean Kappa?

Just an out there ?
If the cause of the injury is due to the boots could Isaac take legal action against the Swans,the AFL and also Nike?

Some talk that Rampe had metal studs too that ripped open WHE's knee.

 

[Bramax]

Makes sense? I'm still confused.

How did the stud make a cut that deep and that wide and slice his leg open like a meat cleaver?

Show some courtesy. There are children that read this. No need to be so graphic.

No.

Nobody takes legal action in the AFL (As bad as this is, there are much worse situations such as Gaff’s king hit on Brayshaw which don’t attract legal action)

The AFL deals with these things in-house. The injured player continues to get paid so there are no grounds for loss-of-income, and the AFL will apply punitive action on club and player so that some justice is served. Everybody then quickly moves on.

Interesting tho a player enters the arena using footwear that's not approved.
And I understand what your saying regarding other injuries due to illegal acts on the ground.
But to me this one's a tad different.

Could've sworn a year or two ago it was Pendles who told Jay Clark on Jock & Journo about metal stops being banned. Love that it was Jay Clark who further pressed Bucks on the issue "aren't they banned?" or whatever.

1. Imagine if the shoe was on the other foot.... Caroline Wilson and the media would be going after our club hard....

2. Anyone seen the rich guys in the change rooms

I agree with the thrust of your post, but what about performance based contracts and incentives?

It may just be my old eyes but on the twitter photo. showing the studs pre-game, haven't they damaged the
artificial turf that he was standing on?

100% there would be grounds for civil suits based on negligence, duty of care etc if say the said injury tore tendons and ended his career.

Pretty forseeable if you wear metal studs a serious injury is likely. Would more likely be a case against the player and their club than the afl.

I’d imagine that performance based payments/incentives would not be that significant otherwise salary cap $$$ would drive selection. Would probably have to prove that player would have been selected (a risk for a player like Quaynor). Unlikely to be worth the hassle of going to court over, even if he could get legal costs.

Sam Edmond on SEN saying that Collingwood players approached this knob before the game and told him the boots weren't allowed. Wowee.

way I look at it, we were clear flag favourites before this incident, we should be given the flag by the AFL as compensation.

 

[BruceFromBalnarring]

Okay Einstein, why do you think metal studs are banned in the first place? Obviously because they are likely to cause more damage -which is what has happened to Quaynor.
I'll go the full Eddie and say heads should roll for this.

Interesting photo of Daicos from a week ago on the Collingwood Instagram.

Actually I was still playing when metal studs were banned and we all laughed at it knowing that plastic studs were far more likely to wear quickly creating sharp edges.

Do you mean this one?



Because they are obviously clear plastic moulds

Bruce is a sucker for punishment

Plastic is brittle, edges wear/break off. Metal edges hang around.

So the AFL has declared that the stops were indeed illegal. Huge sanction incom..... wait, no, Sydney get a stern talking to and AFL declares the next time there will be a $40,000 fine. Meanwhile we lose another player who’s an up and coming star for a month. There is no justice in this league...

Back in the 80's Leith Matthews was criminally charged over on on-field incident, but that was a long time ago..

Like I said before, imagine the uproar if this was collingwood. would be a media storm
