Player Watch #2: Finn 'The Finn-isher' O’Sullivan

[heem]

his head rocks back at impact

Looks like it snaps to the right, just like when hit on the left jaw. If it was just shoulder level contact would have thought FOS head moved to the left. Hard to tell without a front on angle but Hayward’s shoulder may have slipped across and hit FOS jaw or his head may have hit FOS jaw.

Would appear to be head on head contact.

**** the AFL and their amateur bullshit.

 

[ferball]

Shoulder to shoulder my arse.

Jon Ralph tried to get Chom done a few weeks ago didn't he? No way he's trustworthy.

If you elect to bump, are you not accountable for any head injury ?

that is exactly right

Sometimes.

Not against us.

 

[Hatchy1992]

If you elect to bump, are you not accountable for any head injury ?

Only when it suits the afl.

you should be representing FOS if it gets investigated haha

 

[muttley45]

What is this propaganda that the club have stated that Hayward hit was not responsible for the FOS injury ?

Initial Contact:​

• If Player A and Player B bump shoulders directly side-by-side:
  • The initial reaction of the head and neck would generally be to move inward—toward the body’s center—immediately after the initial impact.
  • This happens because when two bodies collide, the shoulder impact usually forces the torso to shift in the opposite direction of the collision. The head and neck, which are not as firmly anchored as the torso, will be momentarily pushed toward the body's center of mass before they can stabilize.

Why Inward?​

• The inward movement happens because when the shoulder contacts the other player's shoulder, the force of the collision causes a compression of the body toward the midline, briefly pulling the head and neck inward (toward the center of the body). This is especially true if both players are pushing against each other with force.

I wish bad things on Hayward, dirty ****ing campaigner.

 

[Petekanga]

Not against us.

AFL is a joke . Nth player guaranteed he would get weeks.

**** they work double time to make sure some club's players are all clear at tribunal.

I thought sentences were handed out to Archer and Curtis based on outcome and not intent?

 

[Makeshift Park]

That new shot does kinda change things. Obviously its still a dick move because he's got FOS late. But from the reverse angle that we were going from previously, I was pretty confident Hayward made contact with FOS' jaw. From this angle you can see he didn't.

Though it is very strange how Finn's head seems to have experienced some kind of whiplash effect from Hayward's shoulder between this frame and the next.

 

[heem]

The first angle here probably does make clear he didn’t get hit head high and the rotation of the head to the right is a whiplash effect after his head first moves left.
Hayward’s luck in not getting cited best summed up by Dunstall in other video.

 

[ferball]

He might haave a dislocation or something from whiplash.

Either way its a fair (if late) bump.

 

[heem]

I wish bad things on Hayward, dirty ****ing campaigner.

Hayward likely to spend the rest of his career struggling for a kick on a Carlton forward line entering a long rebuild phase and pondering how he could have done better in the 2022 and 2024 Grand finals.

Thanks Chadwiko

 

[ferball]

Harsh.

 

[An Ardenary Life]

Such a shame for Finn, hopefully he's not out for long.

 

[Jonnoo]

Wonder if FOSs own left shoulder hit his own jaw, after impact from the sniper? FOSs body is twisted away at impact, putting his left shoulder closer to his jaw.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Thanks Chadwiko

Good to see you back mate. I tried to explain to VicPol I had grave fears for your safety after all this earnestness suddenly appeared from your account last weekend.

Was quite out of character- disturbing stuff indeed. Admittedly it was a bit tricky explaining to the Missing Persons Unit how I knew that “Will Walker” was your safe phrase. Did the kidnappers treat you ok at least?
