In the contest, did not run past the ball and choose to hit Shiel.
Remember it is a contact sport and no-one needs to be hung if there is an injury.

Identical to Zak Jones on Hannan (?)
Same result required - no case to answer
Anyone have that video ??

If he doesn't get a week then it will be an absolute joke. At the very least it will be a fine which equals suspension but it should be a week anyway. Hit a player in the head and they get concussion means you are gone.
Will be fine.

They won't suspend him unless Richmond lose as AFL makes rules up as they go to suit themselves.

Massive respect to Dermott for not being afraid to call it how it was.
Shiel gathered the ball in his hands, Cotchin tensed his shoulder and went the snipe.
Has to go.

Now with a losing Preliminary Final guilty plea, 3 weeks in Bali and free to play Round 1 next year.
GO GIANTS!

Honestly the Zak jones one looked worse but the outcome was minimal no concussion.
Hell miss the start of next season, richmond arent getting into the grand final.
If you choose to bump and get them high then you get suspended,especially if it causes concussion, been that way for awhile now.

No he didn't.
He tensed his right arm and went the body.
He gathered the ball after it hit the deck and Shiel was taken out of it.

If Cotchin doesn't get banned for this with his two strikes then why allow Grundy and Dangerfield to be banned in this outcome based system
Went for the bump rather than attacking for the ball. With a resultant concussion, this should be a week (whether the MRP has the integrity to do so is another matter.)

By the letter of the law he should get a third fine therefore a one week suspension. But there will be rioting on the streets if they go through with it so they wont. They need to tweek the system so that fines from minor infractions incurred during the H&A either dont count or reset for finals because common sense tells you that a player should not miss a final (let alone a grand final) for that.
Conclusion: plays grand final.

Can't see anyway that he escapes without a suspension
He only needs a fine to be out so 1 down to a fine and he's done which is best outcome for him i'd think.
Big Call!
